Shasikala’s family runs a catering business specialized in traditional Sri Lankan, Sinhalese village, Jaffna style, and western cuisines. This is a family business run by her mother, aunt and uncle.  Shasikala will welcome you into her family's simple, modest home with a warm smile. While you sip on milk tea or fresh juice, she will introduce you to the entire family. Her family has a wealth of knowledge on Sri Lankan food, local produce and cooking styles. Visit a nearby market to buy ingredients for your cooking class, then learn to cook three Sinhalese dishes and later sit down with the family to enjoy a meal you helped prepare.

This was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka! Shasikala was so friendly and kind, it was wonderful to be welcomed into her home. Both her and her mother showed us how to make a variety of Sri Lankan dishes which were all delicious. Their 3 friendly dogs were a bonus as well! Highly recommend.

What an awesome experience! Shasi and her mother were so welcoming and fun. I did the class solo and as soon as they greeted me I immediately felt at ease. The market tour was very cool, I was able to buy some spices to take home. It was so incredible watching Shasi cook and learning the recipes- so many incredible dishes that were the tastiest I’ve had yet! I learned ways to modify the recipes for taste/health, tips and tricks that can only come from home style cooking. Also a great way to understand more about what it’s like to live in Sri Lanka, a great cultural as well as culinary experience. I would (and will) recommend to all my friends travelling in the area and would come back in a heartbeat!
