We had a great experience during our private cooking class with Chef Meena! The space was clean, organized, and made for an intimate home cooking experience. Chef Meena did a great job explaining the steps of each menu item and provided recipes for us to take home. We had the chance to taste the food as we cooked and then left with full portions of everything to enjoy at home. The food was delicious! We would highly recommend Chef Meena to anyone looking for Indian home cooking classes!
