Discover the authentic flavors of Sri Lanka in a unique, hands-on cooking class set in our serene island resort. Led by an experienced local chef, this immersive culinary experience goes beyond recipes—it's a deep dive into our culture, heritage, and the healing wisdom of traditional Sri Lankan cooking.

What makes this experience truly special is our use of homegrown vegetables and herbs, cultivated organically right here at the resort. Guests will cook with fresh ingredients straight from our garden, learning how each item supports health and wellness in line with Ayurvedic principles.

Using traditional clay pots, coconut spoons, and firewood stoves, guests will prepare a complete Sri Lankan meal just as it has been done for generations. Our chef shares not only step-by-step techniques but also family secrets and cultural insights that make each dish meaningful.

What to expect

Step into my grandmother’s kitchen, lovingly recreated to share the heart of Sri Lankan culture and family traditions. Your hands-on cooking classes are set in a quiet village home surrounded by a lush garden, where many of your ingredients are freshly picked. Using a clay hearth and wood fire, together we prepare rich, healthy, and flavorful Sri Lankan meals, just as my family has done for generations. More than cooking, this is a journey into a simple lifestyle—stories, laughter, and cultural exchange with people who love to learn deeply from the places they visit. While your meal simmers, enjoy homemade herbal tea or iced tea, and let the calm setting remind you of the beauty of slow, mindful living. Join us to discover not just food, but a way of life—wholesome, traditional, and unforgettable.
