Learn to prepare a traditional Sri Lankan rice-and-curry spread from scratch, starting with spices, moving through the preparation of sambols, curries, dhal and rice and culminating in a shared feast around a family table. Our cooking class partners are home cooks, restaurant chefs and culinary educators who teach with passion and a sense of pride in their island’s food culture. Culinary tours take guests through local markets to select fresh ingredients, into spice gardens to learn about the flavours that define Sri Lankan cooking, and finally into kitchens where those ingredients are transformed into astonishing dishes. Whether you leave with a recipe book of techniques or simply a deeper appreciation of what you’ve been eating all week, our food experiences enrich every journey.
