Overview

I’m Chitra from a traditional Sri Lankan family. Government certified and award winning cooking & baking teacher since 1989, awarded the Inspirational woman of the year award in 2011.
I present you a unique culinary journey that will indulge you in a hands on Sri Lankan cuisine experience. The venue is easily accessible through the Colombo-Kandy highway, nestled in a tranquil area within Kandy city limits.
