Booking a home cooking class with Meena through Traveling Spoon was a highlight of our time in Chennai. The entire experience was both deeply educational and thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. We were welcomed into Meena’s home for a hands-on session focusing on authentic South Indian cooking. She is an exceptional teacher—patient, knowledgeable, and clear in explaining traditional techniques, local spices, and flavor profiles step by step. Preparing the dishes hands-on gave great insight into home-style recipes that you simply don't get in standard restaurants. The highlight was sitting down together to enjoy the delicious, full-course meal we had prepared. Sharing food in a local home setting added an authentic and warm personal touch to the afternoon. If you are visiting Chennai and want an authentic, immersive culinary experience, this cooking class with Meena is highly recommended.
I had such a wonderful time with Sundari! The traditional dishes she taught me were absolutely delicious, and I learned so much throughout the experience. Sundari is a warm, charming, and caring person who went above and beyond to make sure I had a great time, even outside of the cooking lesson. If you’re looking for the best places to buy spices or other local products, just ask her—she’ll happily point you in the right direction. Having traveled to many countries, she brings a unique perspective and a wealth of life experience that truly enrich her cooking and teaching. Although Chennai is a long flight from Japan, I’d definitely come back to learn more of her amazing recipes. Thank you so much for such a memorable experience!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you had such a wonderful time cooking with Sundari. It's wonderful that you enjoyed learning to prepare traditional dishes and that the experience was both delicious and enriching. Sundari has a genuine passion for sharing her culinary heritage, and we're so glad her warmth, generosity, and wealth of travel experiences made your time together even more meaningful. We're also happy to hear she was able to share her local recommendations and help you make the most of your visit to Chennai. Thank you for choosing Traveling Spoon. It means so much to hear that you'd travel all the way from Japan to cook with Sundari again! We hope to welcome you on another unforgettable culinary adventure in the future.
This hands-on class with Meena completely exceeded our expectations! Meena made us feel incredibly comfortable, safe, and welcome in her beautiful apartment. She is so kind and absolutely hilarious! Meena was incredibly accommodating and customized a fully vegan menu for us. She even went out of her way to teach us how to make two different types of dosas after I mentioned they were my favorite food I’ve tried on this trip so far. We loved learning about common ingredients in Indian cooking and how to use them. Plus, Meena was sweet enough to send us the recipes immediately after class. We can't wait to try making them at home and highly recommend this experience!
I learned so many things about Indian food from you. Thank you for teaching me so kindly, even though my English is not very good. Everything we cooked was so delicious! I will take home the dishes I cooked today and enjoy them. When I return to Japan, I will try to cook them again using what I learned from you. Thank you for the wonderful experience!!
My husband and I had an excellent experience with Meena! Prior to our time together she solicited our likes and curated a meal just for us. When we arrived, she was so personable - wiling to answer questions and share about many life in Chennai. And that was even before we started cooking! Her spacious kitchen made following her so easy. We wound up with such tasty dishes: dahl, cauliflower gobi, paneer tikka, basmati rice, roti, dosa. Meena shared South Indian spice tips that I will be able to incorporate into my own cooking back home. Moreover, she promptly sent recipes I requested that will help me even more. I highly recommend Meena for a fun and filling cooking/eating cultural adventure!
Meena is such a warm, friendly person and a great cook. She is the ideal person you want to take a cooking class from because she has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to South Indian cooking, and she's ready and happy to share it. She is very patient with any questions you have, and able to accommodate requests to make specific recipes (I asked to make dosa). When I was with Meena it felt less like I was learning from a teacher or a stranger, and more like I was learning from a friend. I highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to try cooking South Indian food.
The hospitality was absolutely wonderful! The delicious food and delightful conversation have become one of my very best me
A home-cooked South Indian dish cooked in the kitchen of the lovely Meena's house with a pleasant chat. It was fun, delicious and the happiest time ever! I hope you all will have this experience!
A great afternoon and evening learning how to cook with Meena. An expert cook and teacher who made it all look so easy. And then we got to enjoy it all and make a new friend in the process of doing so. Highly recommended the visit.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are delighted to hear that you had such a great afternoon and evening cooking with Meena. She truly has a wonderful way of making even the most complex dishes feel approachable and fun. It is especially nice to hear that the experience went beyond just cooking and that you were able to connect and share such a meaningful time together. That is exactly what we hope every Traveling Spoon experience feels like. Thank you again for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you to another experience in the future.
My boyfriend & I had a wonderful time with Meena! Getting to her location was easy, and her home was beyond cozy & hospitable! Getting to experience a part of a day in the life is what this tour was all about, and it did not disappoint! We shared stories, laughs, and then an amazingly tasteful (hard to believe because we’d made part of it) meal together. We were welcomed like friends and left just the same, so if you’re looking for a truly unique experience in Chennai then look no further.
