Before Starting Market visit and cultural cooking tour Colombo, you will get the chance to select a menu for the preparation form our family recipes which works for everyone
Similar to the palm technique used by Italians to measure spaghetti, we too have lots of such traditional techniques and tactics when it comes to home cooking which are not explained (or rather cannot be explained) in cook books or that sort of videos. Our chef is well aware of those tips and tricks, which are proven through generations, that makes your food tastier with a better aroma and color. He will get you involved in every step of cooking from cleaning to measuring to real cooking while giving you those tips associated with each step. We will take relatively a longer time than Europeans or Americans to prepare a meal but you will never regret the time you spent once you tasted the food.
No matter where you are in, there are always certain manners to be followed in dining table. So, Eating like a local can be trickier than you might think. Every culture has its own food beliefs, traditions and etiquettes. Our first rule is to serve others before ourselves.

This was a wonderful way to spend part of our day learning about Sir Lanka food and culture. They organized our pickup in Negombo which made it so easy as the class was in Columbo and Nim met us at local market and showed us all the local fruit and vegetables. We than took a tut-tut to his lovely home and sat down with us to get to know each other. It was like being in a friends house in a matter of a short time as Nim made us feel so comfortable. He explained what we were making and everything was made from scratch including shredding a coconut. He was exceptionally organized and excellent in explaining how to do it. After everything was made he sat down with us to eat the delicious food and we continued to learn from him. The time went so fast and realized we were there for close to 5 hours cooking and talking. Highly recommend as I know you will enjoy as much as we did and very great full to have met Nim.Being someone who's always loved to eat spicy food, but never known how to cook it in proper way, I had high hopes for Rustic Cooking Class- and it exceeded all expectations. The class was organized impressively. Literally, the rustic Cooking Class represents the rustic signature of Sri Lanka.
