What a pleasure to spend my first evening in Kochi with Nimmy and Paul. We cooked, ate and had some great conversations. This was one of the best meals I had so far in India. I learned all about the ingredients that are typically used in the cuisine of Southern India, as well as some hints on spices. Thank you... More

Both Nimmy and Paul were so welcoming! Nimmy provided us with recipe books to take with us so you could concentrate more on the cooking lesson without worrying about writing it all down. Nimmy is a very good teacher - she didn't just run through the recipe but also covered useful cooking tips. We all sat in the garden afterwards... More

My friend and I stayed at Nimmy and Paul's for slightly less than 24 hours, and never wanted to leave! We initially read about Nimmy and Paul's on Trip Advisor, and since we love Indian food and wanted to learn how to cook these delicious meals, it seemed like the perfect choice and we were not disappointed in the least....

My friend and I stayed with Nimmy and Paul one night, had a private cooking lesson, and ate great food at every meal. Their house and garden are beautiful, our room was air conditioned, and Nimmy teaches out in a little demonstration kitchen set up in the shade looking out at the garden. She showed us how to make simpler... More

We arrived in Cochin on the 18th of January on the Silversea Silver Wind. We had seen that this was an excursion offered by Silversea and did some research on Nimmy & Paul via the internet well in advance and noticed that they could be booked directly which we did. We were a party of 6 (5 great cooks, and... More

We enjoyed our morning with Nimmy who is a wonderful teacher and charming hostess. My husband and I cooked in the garden with Nimmy and when she found out that it was my husband's birthday - a special dessert was prepared for him. It was so special to spend some time with Nimmy and Paul in their beautiful home and... More

On asking her about different herbs & spices, she was very vague didnt seem to know... More

I spent two days with Nimmy Paul in September 2010. Those two days were undoubtedly one of the highlights of my trip to India. Nimmy is a fantastic teacher. She did a very thorough job of asking what specifically I wanted to learn and for what purpose, for what audience, etc., so that she could suggest the recipes that were... More
