I’ve done many many cooking classes - this one of the best. Great instruction, friendly relaxed atmosphere, helpful and extremely informative. Really took the “fear” out of Indian cooking - chef was amazing and I’ve book another cuisine with him. Oh the food was amazing Thanks so much

We had a great time tonight. Lots of good food and good company. The curries were surprisingly easy to make and the naan particularly delicious.
