Sajee’s Place Cooking Class sigiriya

Absolutely perfect afternoon and evening with Sajee and Suzi! From the detailed explanations about the different spices all the way to the use of the coconut (milk, powder) and the preparation of 7 different curries and 1 stir fry we learnt so much. Whether you come as a couple or a family, everyone is very welcome. We also got surprised for a birthday, which was such a nice touch, we can’t be more grateful! In short, if you are looking for a unique experience perfectly balancing knowledge, hands-on experience and incredible taste (because yes, the food is delicious on top of this and the ingredient are so fresh!) then definitely go there.

My daughter and I had an absolutely wonderful evening with Sajee and his wife! Sajee shared so much interesting knowledge about Sri Lankan spices and traditional dishes, explaining everything in an engaging way. One of the highlights was making fresh coconut milk ourselves—it was such a great hands-on experience! The time flew by, and we enjoyed an incredibly delicious meal together. It was a perfect mix of learning and cooking. We would happily do this experience again anytime and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka!

We took a cooking class as a family: 2 adults and 3 children aged 20, 19, and 11. Everyone loved it! The explanations are clear, and the atmosphere is friendly; the couple takes the time to explain things well to us. And the result was delicious! We enjoyed tasting our dishes. We will try making some of these dishes again back in France thanks to the PDFs provided after the class. Thank you! And good luck with everything.

Great experience! They even did a extra class for me and my friends. Very authentic experience and a great gids that explains everything about the food. And the food itself was delicious best food we had so far in sri lanka.

Exciting cooking class! The prepared dishes are delicious, you really get hands-on, and you leave with tips that will change your daily life. How to perfectly cook rice, how to perfectly balance spices, and above all, how to recreate these fragrant dishes with our local ingredients! Thanks to Sajee and his wife! I will think of you when I prepare my green apple curry in France!

A great insight into genuine Sri Lankan cuisine. We had a really enjoyable afternoon learning, cooking then eating a feast! Amazing hosts too, who made our son’s 18th birthday super special. Thank you!

We had an amazing time at Sajee’s cooking class! We learned to make 7 Sri Lankan curries, including both meat and lots of vegetarian options. The lesson was very informative, Sajee made sure to give us tips and tricks that we could bring home with us. The atmosphere was great and the food delicious! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Sigirya!

Superb time! We learned how to make the typical Sri Lankan dish, a curry! From the beginning to the end, from cutting the food to mixing the spices, the explanations of these were detailed. Explained in very understandable English! We had the pleasure of verifying right away if the explanations were good because we really enjoyed sharing our delicious curry!
