Overview

Step into a real Indian family home and discover the joy of cooking with Namita, a local Bengaluru host, dentist, and passionate home cook. Unlike a typical cooking demonstration, this is a personal, hands-on experience where you cook alongside your host, learn traditional techniques, and share a freshly prepared meal together.
You can opt to explore a local market and discover the fresh ingredients, aromatic spices, and seasonal produce that bring Indian cooking to life.
Along the way, discover the stories, family traditions, and secrets behind Indian home cooking. More than learning recipes, you'll experience the warmth of Bengaluru hospitality, enjoy meaningful conversations over a home-cooked meal, and take home skills and memories to cherish long after your visit.
Come curious, cook with a local, and experience India through its food, traditions, and the simple pleasure of sharing a meal.

What's included

  • Dinner
  • Fresh Lime soda or Seasonal Fruit smoothie along with the full course meal.

What to expect

Namaste! I'm Namita, a dentist by profession and a passionate home cook at heart. Welcome to my home in Bengaluru for a private, hands-on Indian cooking experience!
Together, we'll explore the flavours of Indian cuisine, from North Indian classics to South Indian favourites and regional Karnataka specialities. Learn to use aromatic spices, discover traditional cooking techniques, and prepare dishes such as flavourful curries, fresh vegetable sambar, or mavinakai chitranna (tangy raw mango rice).

The menu is tailored to your tastes and preferences, whether vegetarian or non-vegetarian. As we cook, I'll share the stories and traditions behind the dishes, along with practical tips you can recreate in your own kitchen.
More than a cooking class, this is an opportunity to experience authentic Indian home cooking, connect over food, and discover the warmth of Karnataka hospitality.

Come as a guest, cook alongside me, savour a home-cooked Indian meal, and leave with new skills, delicious memories, and a genuine taste of Indian home life. I look forward to welcoming you into my kitchen!
Namaste, and see you at my table!
