Amazing experience

We really enjoyed the cooking class. It's just like described in the other reviews. Such a nice place, they seem dedicated to organic and vegan food. The food we cooked was really good.

Second thoughts (few weeks after the cooking class): I would love to believe that they are really 100% ayurvedic, vegan and organic. But after the cooking class they sent a recipe book. One of the dishes/recipes contains eggs, so not sure how genuine they really are.

Nice experience

Amazing experience to discover the local cuisine. First you will start with a tour in the veggie en herb garden. Kumara had a lot of knowlegde. The cooking part was nice, you will make many delicious dishes.

Great people, great food

Lovely family. They grow almost all the ingredients themselves. Big variety of food and cooking techniques. Very interesting and fun. They also give a tour of the garden, but we didn't do that because of the rain.

Very familiar and tasty.

I can absolutely recommend it. First we had a walk through their garden. Everything came from their. After that we had a very familiar cooking with the family and the lunch was very tasty.
Please don’t tell your homestay/hotel that you are going their. Than they have to pay a high fee.

Pros: Familiar , Tasty, All organic

Best Sri Lankan experience!

We had an amazing experience here with kumara and his family, they were so kind and friendly - this is a must do for anyone visiting Sirigiya.

We began with a garden tour (where all the ingredients you will cook with are grown) to understand more about the properties of the vegetables, fruits, spices etc. And then cooked some delicious Sri Lankan food using those fresh organic ingredients!

The experience lasted around 2.5 hours (including eating time) and was 15K for 2 people (we paid 18K as we had such a great time)

Please book directly with them through WhatsApp so that your hotel/hostel/whatever doesn’t take commission (apparently they take 50%)

Pros: Friendly hosts, Delicious food

Best cooking class ever.

This family runs the only real organic cooking class in Sigirya. All the ingredients they use are from their own land. Such as herbs, spices, and vegetables.
The class starts with a little tour through the garden in which several plants and herbs are shown and their health benefits are explained.
After a spicy cup of tea, they show and assist you in preparing the meal. Everything is hand produced and cooked on a woodfire.
When the food was ready, we sat down with another couple and enjoyed the meal together.
The family is very dedicated to what they do and kind.
We ate the best and tastiest food since our stay in Sri Lanka and also free of poison such as pesticides and herbicides
If you go to a cooking class, choose this one !

Pros: It's all organic and fresh from their own garden. , The dedication of this family to organic farming , The info about the benefits of the different foods

A Lovely Vegan Cooking Class

It's a family run cooking class that combines a walking tour of the garden with the hands on approach of a cooking class. The dishes are divine. It's amazing how great the food turned out with everyone pitching in.

Pros: The structure of the cooking class, The hands-on approach to learning, The family run gusto
