Step into your host’s warm and inviting Pleasanton home, nestled in the East Bay just outside San Francisco, for a lively, hands-on cooking class that fuses the bold flavors of India with the freshness of California cuisine. Your experience begins with a welcome drink and light snack as you settle in, chat with your host, and go over the day’s menu. Then, roll up your sleeves and dive into the kitchen to cook three mouthwatering dishes made with seasonal, wholesome ingredients. You’ll do more than just prep - get ready to mix marinades, layer spices, garnish like a chef, and learn practical techniques side-by-side with your host. The cooking session runs about 1.5 hours and is followed by a relaxed sit-down meal where you’ll enjoy your creations, served with a glass of local Californian wine. Dietary restrictions? No problem, your host can adapt the menu for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, or vegan preferences. If you’d rather explore a more traditional South Indian menu instead of the California twist, just let her know when booking and she’ll customize your experience. This intimate, home-based class is a fun and flavorful way to experience the Bay Area’s rich culinary diversity and take home new recipes, cooking skills, and delicious memories.
