We absolutely loved our cooking session with Chef Shailini! I booked this class for my husband's birthday because the dish was our favorite takeout to order, and we wanted to learn to make it ourselves. We learned to prepare many dishes, and every single one was exceptional. Chef Shailini was also kind enough to share general kitchen tips—my personal favorite was her trick for getting viscous sauces out of measuring spoons! Chef Shailini was warm, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. Food and company both earn an A+!

This was my second class with Chef Shailini, and it confirmed why I came back. The menu—Kachumbar, Aloo Gobi Mataar, Chicken Tikka Masala, Raita, Dhania Chutney, Saffron Pulao, and Kheer—hit all the “restaurant favorite” notes, but the real value was learning the how behind each dish. Shailini had everything organized, explained the purpose of each spice, and showed simple techniques that raised our confidence: how to bloom spices properly, build a bright chutney, and get tender chicken without drying it out. The pacing was perfect—hands-on without feeling rushed—and she offered considered spice heat levels. As in my first class with her, the setting was warm and welcoming; everyone felt comfortable asking questions and tasting along the way. I cannot wait to receive the recipes and attempt to try like what I did after the first class. If you’re curious about Indian cooking (beginner or returning student), this class delivers: practical skills, great flavors, and a host who truly cares about teaching. Highly recommended. — Han Chang

My daughter and I had a nice evening with Chef Shailini! She had a yummy variety of dishes and added a lot of interest, talking about cultural aspects and food history, as well as sharing anecdotal stories. If you like or are curious about Indian food, this class is for you!
