About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 539kristelm0 contributionsGreat experience - Great food at the best price.Cooking class with Durga is an unique experience. First she asked which dishes we liked te learn to cook and eat. There were so many options that it was hard to choose. She gives a lot of information about all the spices, herbs and ingredients we used. In a fun, pleasant way. The kitchen and all utilities are perfect clean and the terrace at the roof is very cosy. We sit together with the family and enjoyed our fresh cooked dishes. It was the perfect afternoon. And one of the cheapest in Udaipur. A lot of tasty food and a nice afternoon with a lovely family. Great value for money!Written 6 September 2022
- yelowrj0 contributionsFantastic ActivityWe booked in for a class as an afternoon activity. We’d been keen to do one whilst in India and couldn’t recommend Durga and her class more. Durga, her husband and Dudy were incredibly accommodating and welcomed us with open arms. We chose our dishes (all veg) from things we had eaten whilst in India. They talked us through it and showed us how to cook traditionally with great patience (as we are all novices). This is one of the best experiences we have had in India and highly recommend if searching for an activity whilst in Udaipur.Written 17 October 2019
- Yogawith_lou0 contributionsAmazing cooking class in Udaipur!The second we walked into Durga's kitchen my daughter and I knew it was going to be great. Her and her husband welcomed us into their house like it was our own and were so kind and friendly the whole way through. They had a wide range of options featuring all of the best Rajasthani food! We chose 5 dishes including masala chai, chipati and more, you can also choose from veg and non veg dishes. Durga was great at working with all ages including me and my 13 year old daughter and had clear and easy to understand recipes. The environment created in their kitchen is so beautiful and they treat you like family! We highly recommend Durga's cooking class and thank her and her family for an experience we will never forget!

This was an amazing experience to learn how to cook a traditional Indian meal of your choice plus pakoras, dhal and chai. If anyone is travelling through India this is super handy if you want to impress your hosts or even your parents or friends back home! The family are incredibly friendly and are very good and clear with their instructions. I would definitely recommend and is cheaper than most other cooking classes!

Ever wondered how real Indian food is cooked in a family home? Durga welcomed us into her home, and spent 3 hours in her kitchen with us, while we learned in a completely hands-on way, how to cook 5 dishes, 1 chutney, and traditional chai tea! Her kitchen is clean, and she used sterile water in the cooking, so Western stomachs will be fine! I am writing this review several days after the class, and neither myself or my husband got sick. I know this is a concern for many Western travellers. One big plus is that she has zero meat in the kitchen. This drastically reduces risk of getting ill. Vegans can be accommodated too, as dairy is optional and she does not use eggs! I could be vegetarian the rest of my life if I ate food like this! So utterly full of nutrients and flavour. You can choose the level of spiciness, but for the chilli lovers out there, I highly recommend asking Durga to show you how to make Chilli Pakora - it packs a punch and has salty and sour noted... one of the yummiest things I have ever eaten. Pakora herself is just a delightful human being. So relaxed and passionate about sharing her knowledge. What she offers is priceless.

My daughter and I took a cooking class with Durga and Dudi and had a great time. We were able to learn how to make chai, chapati, chutney, masala base sauce, jeera aloo, vegetable biryani, vegetable pakora and Dahl fry. Instructions are very clear and the class went really smoothly. Both Durga and Dudi are great instructors. We were at ease and had a fun time. Really reasonable price for the class, and tasting the results of our cooking was great fun! It's really an excellent way to learn more about the delicious food, and how to make it. Do make the time to take a cooking class with these lovely people!

Durgan did such a great job explaining basically all of North India’s dishes. We cooked a huge variety of dishes that all ended up so tasty! The whole family is very nice and Durga was so pleasant and patient with us. Highly recommended!

Durga was the most excellent teacher, funny, elegant & to the point with her technique & instruction.
We relaxed & chatted over chai & pakora that Durga taught me to prepare.
The cooking was fun ‘ then I enjoyed the meal I had prepared on the beautiful roof terrace whilst chatting to her husband.

Durga is a very talented cook and we really enjoyed this class! You get clear instructions on what’s going on and get to take turns to join in.
It’s at the Black Pepper Guesthouse and was at least 4+ hours, as you make quite a few dishes, so give yourself enough time.
The kitchen is clean and everything is washed in filtered water. They send you some of the recipes and some dishes you take notes for. The food was really delicious and really enjoyed sitting down with everyone at the end. Highly recommend!

I love cooking and learning new recipes.. I was staying with Durga and her family and I saw that she takes the Indian cuisine course🤩 already from the clean room I imagined that the kitchen will also be nice and clean and it was like that.. Durga is the true master of the home and also her cuisine...she is very good at explaining the recipes and procedures, I learned the basics of Indian cuisine and with the basics you can create many good recipes...in the end we tasted the cooked food, I can say that it was one of the best I ate in India.. I recommend it..

Wow! What an amazing cooking class! The best one we have ever done! Mitali and her mother were such wonderful teachers and we learnt how to cook so many amazing dishes and chai too! The recipes were also sent to us immediately after so we can cook the dishes at home. Not only did we learn to cook everything, Mitali and her family also taught us so much about Indian culture. 100% recommend! Thank you so much!

We loved our cooking with Durga! Her and her family welcomed us into their home and it was very special to be in their kitchen cooking with them. Their English is excellent and we had some great conversations - learning lots about spices along the way. Durga has a natural cooking talent and she creates a very relaxed and enjoyable time. She sent us all the recipes after our class and even though we are back in the uk, her and her daughter remain on hand to help us with any questions. The food is so wonderful in India, we would highly recommend taking a cooking class with Durga to inspire you to cook more of it yourself when you return home :)
Thank you Durga and Mitali :)

An unforgettable experience, one of the best things on our trip to India.
It's been fun, incredibly tasty and all super familiar. We definitely recommend it to spend a different afternoon and come home with a full gut and plenty of recipes in your "pocket".
Best of all, they let you choose the recipes you like best and all the ingredients are fresh.
