Markttour met kookles door Colombo Cookingclass

I didn’t have the experience of going because it was cancelled on me after I had stayed up late into early morning (2am) to make sure that they contact me for “meeting location”. Mind you, I had booked this tour days ago, and extended my stay in Colombo specifically for it. Well, finally, it was a text “very bad emergency” with no specific explanation. I m not sure if I believe the story because another cooking tour also had canceled on me for SIMILAR REASON. And both AT THE VERY LAST MINUTE. My extra stay for these tours and now I have nothing to do, just a waste of my time and expenses because I had already done other tours and it is a Sunday, a day of rest & family time. Most everything closes. suspect that they cancelled on me because I m going solo and they have found more people to fill a group. More money for them at my expense. These operators are not reliable! Why not just close the tour for not enough participants before anyone can book & set their plans. Why fabricate a story. “Mom/dad in the hospital”, “Brother’s hurt”, “bad emergency”… less harmful karma, just to be honest. I am not being uncharitable nor uncaring, but one similar story after another after long avoided-communications / “ghosting”, one has to question. I am very angry because my plans basically ruin and I feel like I am being make a fool off or duped . If it is true that their loved ones are sick, a bad emergency,… I pray that everything is well and their gods are watching over them.

A tour you cannot miss! We had such an amazing time and learnt so much! If you want real authentic food and actually learn how to make meals the Sri Lankan way, you have to do this tour! From the food market you the cooking class our guides weee amazing, talking about culture, local landmarks and much much more!

We had the best market tour and cooking class with Piumi and Susantha. A lovely husband and wife duo who are so passionate in sharing their country's cuisine and culture. We started with a market tour at one of the markets and learnt about the ingredients and fresh produce used to make our meal. We got to pick our own side vegetables at the market and it was such a fun idea as we got to try vegetables that we never get in Hong Kong. All the spices used in the dish are all homemade which shows the quaity and care they put into their work. The husband also runs a tour company and is very knowledgeable about the country and the city. Highly recommand everyone to book the class while you're in Colombo! P.S. They also have the cutest dog who will assists you with the class.

Perfect cooking class with market visit. The food was very delicious and we could choose on the market ourselves which vegetable curries we want to cook - 10 different. Courts. We have learned a lot about preparing typical dishes from Sri Lanka. We can recommend the tour 100%!

I would really recommend this experience to anyone who spends time in Colombo. Piumi is just the loveliest, kindest teacher and both my partner and I learnt so much from her! The food that we cooked was delicious and we made 12 different curries/dishes in about 3.5 hours. Piumi also makes her own chilli and curry powders, and provided us with a recipe book - so I can make the recipes at home too :) I would absolutely go for this experience if it’s something you are thinking about !

Great beginning to a holiday. Well organized, informative, and delicious. Very clean, professional, and friendly. The knowledge we gained served us well for the remainder of our holiday, and gave us a much greater appreciation of the foods of Sri Lanka. Recommend that you do at the beginning of your trip. Our host became a great source of information for the additional touring we did in the country.

Excellent cooking class and great experience from start to finish! Lovely to be able to see all the fresh ingredients in the market before preparing them. Would highly recommend!

A cooking class was high on our list of 'must-do's' whilst visiting Sri Lanka and we struck gold with Piumi and Susantha. Susantha is an amazing cook and teacher and WE LEARNT SO MUCH. The 12 dishes we learnt to prepare were all delicious in their own right and we are excited to get into the kitchen at home and bring them to life again. Piumi and Susantha are also simply lovely people and wonderful hosts and we had a great time hanging out with them and learning from them. The biggest thank to you both 🙏🏼. Love Anna & Mick

Great experience and lovely hosts and dog! We learnt how to cook several curries and about all the fresh ingredients in a really nice setting

An amazing experience. So much to learn about food and preparation. The market tour when we bought the food was so interesting. It’s unbelievable how much work goes into preparing all of the dishes. Totally recommend this to everyone young and old.
