Lovely tasting food and beer also. Would recommend.Posted onVerified Authentic cooking class, would highly recommend! We had a wonderful few hours with Sonia, learning all the techniques to make delicious curries from all over India! She made us feel extremely welcome and it was so great seeing her cook. A cooking class is a must do when visiting India and we would highly recommend this to friend and families! Thanks Sonia for a great day!!!Posted onVerified Lovely morning cooking lesson Had a lovely morning at Rahul's cookery school. Rahul was incredibly friendly and a great teacher, giving tons of interesting info about all the different foods that we cooked. He also catered well to our specific dietary requirements meaning that we could still enjoy a great range of different dishes.Posted onVerified The Best in Goa !! Rahuls Cooking Class:There are quite a few cooking classes in the South Goa area. We searched and researched quite a bit for a local one, nearby Palolem, but for one with good feedback and reviews. Rahuls cooking class came out the best and it most certainly was. โ We contacted Rahuls cooking class and they managed to fit us in on our Anniversary - Thank you so much.Located just 30 seconds behind Palolem beach. (I have attached a video to my review). There are 2 in a similar area, careful not to get confused with โAuthenticโ cooking class. Rahuls is a much longer, better establishment than โAuthenticโ Cooking class. (Check the reviews).When we arrived we assessed the working areas, they were immaculate. Very well maintained and kept. Well ventilated too. You get given an apron, your own towel, youโre asked to wash your hands and drinking water is provided. All the ingredients are fresh. On this occasion Rahul was not available but his wife was, Sonia. Sonia created a great experience for us. A fantastic 3 hour lesson in cooking 5 different authentic foods of India/Goa. You get a 10 minute break and then get to also enjoy all the food you have made, at the end. Sonia was fantastic! Patient, Kind, a great teacher, warm and welcoming, we couldnโt recommend this class enough for something different. ๐ฏ% worth the money.Thank you Rahuls cooking Class. Thank you Sonia. ๐ซPosted onVerified Enjoyable and yummy experience! Our experience with Rahul was extremely memorable. Rahul provided an extremely thorough cookery experience for my family in a private group setting. All ingredients and utensils were provided. On arrival we were greeted by his family (dog too!) with some chai and samosas. We made a variety of dishes. My dad is allergic to prawns so Rahul quickly amended the menu to allow him to cook fish instead. We had a lovely time with Rahul at a very reasonable price and would recommend to anyone interested in the beautiful Goan cuisine.Posted onVerified Human side to improve for his wife No Rahoul , he doesnโt teach the course, itโs this woman who replaces him, we were not warned, she is a little aggressive when I ask the question.She pours her venom on neighbors who have opened a class too.At the end she is very insistent to leave a comment, very marketing all this, where the Indian soul has gone.Not very pro all this.Otherwise the interesting and nice course , we also liked the very professional setting.Flat: the very expensive price It would have been nice to leave with a few spices...Posted onVerified Best experience Hoghley recommend this Beautiful family establishment since 2011 Fantastic cooking classes in Goa very well pricedLearnt lots of dishes from fresh local ingredients.fantastic seting beautiful new morden kitchen squeaky clean kitchen.sonia Rahul's wife was very easy to follow and learn from lots of love โค๏ธ best thing at the end we seats together and enjoy our meal made by our own self ๐ BEWARE .... There. Is another business set up next door to them they have copied there business and lied and stole from them they are currently claiming there bookings as there own and copyed there advert shamefull beware of the fat man and the lady(not so much a lady as she always trying to steal the guests !! Thankyou Rahu'l and sonyaPosted onVerified Taste Bud Pleasure What an amazing experience had a great time and learnt some great skills in the kitchen. Highly recomended for anyone visiting South Goa. These guys have been established since 2011, beautiful kitchen fresh ingredients and wonderful hosts. ChrisPosted onVerified Excellent! We've done a few cookery classes over the years, but this was definitely one of the best! Fantastic value for money. Rahul (and his wife) was very welcoming and friendly. He is a calm and knowledgeable chef. He explained everything we were about to make and gave information about its history, etc. He showed and spoke to us about the different spices, herbs and oils. The class is hands on, we chopped onions, tomatoes, peppers and the likes and Rahul talked us through each step of the cooking process. At the end, we ate!! You need nothing but an empty tummy to take part in this class!! It is suitable for total beginners to chefs who want a crash course in Indian cooking, and, I also feel it would be suitable for older children who have an interest in food & cooking, it would be an excellent family activity! It is excellent value for money and at the end, Rahul provides you with all the recipes, so you have no excuses to cook them at home!! You won't regret taking this class!

We arrived as a couple to a cooking workshop, and there were only three participants in total, which made the experience intimate and pleasant. The explanations about the dishes we prepared were very detailed, and every step of the cooking process was clearly explained - both how to do it and why. During the workshop, we made five different dishes, and at the end, we ate everything - it was absolutely delicious.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir hatten eine super Zeit mit Sonia. Meine Familie spricht nicht besonders gut Englisch, aber Sonia hat das super gemacht. Sie hat den Kochkurs mit Geduld, Humor und einen groรen Lรคcheln gefรผhrt. Es war lecker, sauber und unterhaltsam.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Authentischer Kochkurs in Agonda. Rahul und sein Team sind super auf unsere Wรผnsche (veganes Essen) eingegangen und haben sich viel Mรผhe gegeben. Wir hatten jederzeit die Mรถglichkeit, Fragen zu stellen und selbst auszuprobieren. Zum Ende konnten wir das Gekochte auch selbst verzehren. Der Preis war fair und entsprach einem guten Preis-LeistungsverhรคltnisPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ืขืฉืื ื ืฉืืขืืจ ืขื ืกืื ืื, ืืืฉืชื ืฉื ืจืืื. ืฉืืขืืจ ืืืฉืื ืืขืืื ืืืฉ. ืืฉืืขืืจืื ืืื ืื ืืืจืืจืื ืืืื. ืืืชืืฆืื - ืืืจืืื ืืื ืืขืืื ืฉืืืื ื ืืคืืืืืื
