Taking part in the cooking class was truly interesting—we learned many techniques to prepare a full traditional Nepali meal, including some delicious momos! The host was very friendly, and we shared plenty of laughs while cooking on a beautiful terrace. I asked to take home what I had prepared to share with my friends, and they kindly packed everything up for easy transport. Thank you so much, it was fantastic!

The cooking lessons with Esther was the highlight of our day. We cooked in their kitchen on the rooftop in the afternoon. We were able to enjoy the preparations and wrapping momos with the sunset as our background. Not only did she teach us how to make the foods but also gave us tips. Momos are wrapped in different shapes and she taught us which shape is for which fillings. We also had interesting and insightful conversation with her husband. I highly recommend this experience because you will not just learn how to cook Nepali food, you will also get immersed in the culture and local life of Nepalis.

We had a wonderful morning learning to cook local dishes with Esther and Ruth. They made us feel very welcome and presented the class really well. Esther took us to the market and told us about the local area, it's religions and cultures. We saw how the local food was bought and how the market catered for different groups of people. The cooking was great fun and really accessible. They welcomed us into their home and their kitchen and taught us some of their skills in making mo mos and dal bhat. We would highly recommend this activity to anyone spending a little time in and around Patan. Thank you.
