Galle: Traditional Sri Lankan Cooking Class

6.Traditional Sri Lankan Cooking Class

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 21 reviews · 3 hours · from $40

Review of Galle’s 3-hour Sri Lankan cooking class in Kotapola, with local hosts, fresh ingredients, eight vegan dishes, price, tips, and honest advice.

“My boyfriend and I had an absolutely amazing time at this cooking class. Malik and his mother were incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming, and this was by far the coolest experience we had during our Sri Lanka vacation. We cooked eight different vegan (on our request) dishes, all using fresh local ingredients, and everything was explained with so much passion and knowledge. We even learned how to make the spice mixes. Malik and his mother also shared a lot about Sri Lankan cuisine and local culture, which made the experience even more special. Also, the family atmosphere was truly unique and authentic, as we were cooking in their own kitchen.…”
