    Nalini, teaching us how to cook with confidence and passion!
    Micki D.

    I went to this cooking class with a good friend of mine and we had the most amazing time! Nalini was a wonderful teacher and really made the environment comfortable and non-intimidating. I am not a good cook myself; however, I felt completely confident in the step by step process that she lays out for us. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the food and taught us skills that I will use while repeating these recipes as well as day to day cooking. I highly recommend this class and look forward to taking some more with Nalini in the future.

    This is the coconut chutney I will rave about forever...
    Shawny M.

    My boyfriend and I took the Delectable Dosas cooking class and it exceeded our expectations by far! Not only did we learn to make authentic tasting potato masala dosas and sambar lentil soup, we made a coconut chutney that was absolutely divine. The chutney by itself was enough to make the class worthwhile! Our class was a good mix of people of varied ages and cooking levels; it was a good pace for beginners and even experienced cooks like my boyfriend and I got a lot out of the class. Nalini demystified Indian spices and the art of making dosas. We took the class a little over a month ago and we've made the recipes from the class successfully at home, twice already! I am looking forward to taking Nalini's other cooking classes.

    here is proof - i made this daal, peas palau, channa masala, and chicken tikka masala at home after taking one class!
    xu x.

    great classes! and i am a complete stranger to most cooking! actually, pretty much the only things i can cook are the ones that I learned from two classes with Nalini. i've been practicing at home and for willing test subjects, and it's working great! i am going to take all the other classes.

    dosa made at home! day after thanksgiving, so i stuffed it with sweet potato/pear/persimmon and put cranberry sauce on top. :)

    I had an amazing time at the Ayurveda culinary cooking class in Boone BC with Nalini Mehta. She's an incredible chef and lots of fun.

The class pace is great for beginners and advanced chefs, and they have a great selection of classes. Note that they have you in groups of 6 - we ended up making new lifelong friends. Overall great learning and experience! They ask for feedback at the end of class and you also get a discount for the shop. I have also purchased croissant and danishes from the storefront and they're top tier.

I was greeted when I walked in and several staff members answered my question about the parking. Luckily I had been on the easy to navigate website beforehand, so I knew what I was after: knife storage and an apron. I located those and then allowed myself a little browsing. I think the sunny feeling was only partly sunshine through the windows; the lighting is very nice, and soon someone asked if I needed help finding anything. I also noticed the large cooking classroom. I got a croissant for the road in addition to my small purchase. I think this is my new favorite croissant in the Twin Cities! Up until now it had been Rose Bakery.

We stopped in here after nearby workout class. I started with a creme brulee croissant and wish I had gotten second. I had a french omelet and the eggs were perfectly cooked and the cheese melted into each bite with the perfect amount of flavor. It looked like it may be hard to grab a seat, but there was plenty of turn over and we got a seat right away. The atmosphere was relaxing and filled with positive energy - people catching up, on a first date, or even reading. I am excited to come back to try more pastries variations & grab a coffee.

Passing by the window I thought it was a long shot and almost passed right by. I doubled back when I saw the chalkboard said open seating at the bar. We lucked out and got a high top for two right away. Guess what. They even have wings. Duck wings- something I didn't even know I wanted. Their small plates were perfect and we loved everything. The duck wings were a delicious mix of savory and sweet - dark moist meat like a turkey leg but sauced with a sweet orange glaze. The shrimp cocktail had the biggest shrimp I've seen in my life. The Brandade Fritters had a nice crispy texture and spicy sauce to take them the extra mile. The Trotter Croquette was also just so interesting - almost like a crab cake texture but so meaty and savory. We just couldn't stop so we had the chocolate mousse cake as well. It was to die for. It reminded me of my favorite Sebastian's Joe's ice cream - raspberry chocolate chip since it was paired with a raspberry sherbet. The Mousse was on this like crumbly stuff I that told my husband reminded me of that layer in à DQ cake (in the best way). Just all around perfect texture and flavor combos. I also really appreciated their NA cocktails. Most places do not do them well but I am happy to say that their Tonic 11 was very good. I can't wait to come back and try the other ones. Service and the ambiance were also very nice. They were so welcoming even though we just wandered in off the street at prime time on Valentine's Day. The interior is beautiful with high ceilings, romantic lightning and even intricately tiled bathrooms. They really paid attention to every detail and it shows.
