Organic Cooking Class with Garden Visit by Sinhagiri

The tour through the organic garden was pretty cool. We learned a lot about the regional fruits. It was also fascinating that elephants are a major challenge for the farmers around Sigiriya and how that is dealt with. The cooking class itself was great. Regardless of whether you can cook or not, it didn't matter at all. The cook was incredibly lovely and intelligent.

It was a nice experience, first an extensive tour of the garden with explanations of everything that grows. Then into the kitchen with a very nice cozy lady, who explains everything to you with pleasure and a big smile! Then eat together:)

Amazing chef and guide..food was v tasty

We had an amazing private cooking class! It started with a tour of the garden, where everything about the local herbs, spices, and ingredients was explained clearly. The cooking itself was easy to follow, the food was absolutely delicious, and everything was included—even drinking water. Afterwards, we received all the recipes by email and a lovely souvenir to take home. A truly authentic experience and one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended!

Very interesting cooking class with explanations about local ingredients and cooking culture. And at the end a nice fresh meal!

Wow wow wow! Absolutely amazing. Sriyani was so knowledgeable and friendly. She could host a cooking class on TV. Fun interactive, we were all very involved. A memorable afternoon/ evening. Really enjoyed seeing a lot of the organic produce on the land before our cooking class began, gentleman had such knowledge an interesting session.

Very well received and guided! Thank you very much to our host for this very pleasant moment

Fantastic experience. Sriyani was so knowledgeable, and made the cooking look easy, but the subtle blends of spices produced delicious results. Highly recommended.

Superb experience at the heart of Sri Lankan cuisine. First, a visit to the garden with explanations about the fruits and vegetables. Secondly, a very informative and interesting introduction to cooking. Finally, a meal based on what we have cooked. We had the experience with our two babies, aged 2 and 3 years, and all the staff interacted with them during the 3 to 4 hours of activity, which allowed us to enjoy the experience as well. Thank you!

Our cooking class experience with Sriyani and guided tour around their garden by Sriyani’s husband, Karu, was absolutely amazing. I couldn’t fault our experience at all, beautiful kind people with a lot of knowledge and love to teach and share their cooking culture. We learnt a lot and everything was detailed and explained, what a bonus to eat the cooking at the end. Would recommend to anyone heading into Sigiriya!
