What an amazing experience! We had a great time cooking, learning and eating! Nice environment and process.

What a special treat this is! Renu is technically a Westerner but also an Indian living in Rishikesh. She spans both cultures which is helpful for Westerners. The intro to ayurveda was easily digestible and the cooking class fun. She brought in some women villagers that she employs who were a delight and even painted my groups hands with henna. Highly recommend this experience!

Really enjoyed Renu's low-key, warm welcome. She gave us a nice overview of Ayurveda, and then we got to work in the kitchen. She showed us how to make some delicious things like coconut chutney, daal, paneer (much easier than I imagined!) and we learned about all kind of new spices.... like "hing" (YUM!!!). The entire meal was filling and was easily among the best meals I enjoyed during 2 weeks in India. Back home, I ate out at my local fave Indian restaurant, and feel a lot wiser due to Renu's lesson.

Renu, is a very intelligent and empathetic ayurveda practitioner with all her ethics and principle intact. I was suffering from acute gynaecological problem. No doctor could help me. But I am thankful that I met Renu through trip advisor.... And she solved my problem within no time. Now I am healthy and seeing the world in newer perspective...just because of her. My suggestion , if anyone is facing any health issue can come to her without any inhibitions. You will definitely get the solution. Thank you Renu. God bless you always.🥰

With only a short time in Rishikesh, my friend and I wanted to take in as much local "flavor" as possible and booked Renu's Ayurvedic Cooking Class. She did an amazing job both explaining the basic Ayurvedic principles and teaching us some delicious recipes in only a few hours. Perfect way to spend an afternoon and take something home that we can share with others!

Renu was highly knowledgable and explained everything in easily digestible detail. Having lived in London, she was able to translate local ingredients into what would be available at home. She gracefully answered all our questions and explained theories well. When it came to the cooking, she had prepared the ingredients beforehand and was able to explain the health benefits of all the herbs and spices. We had a go at making our own dosas and she made the whole process feel very simple. I will certainly be making my own paneer after this! Highly recommended!

Highly recommend Renu’s class - a great class and the proceeds go to an excellent course! I searched around for a while for Ayurvedic cooking classes. Was after a combo of theory and practical. Renu’s class was the perfect combo of both. Really informative session on Ayurveda followed by putting into practice what we learnt. We got to cook with local ladies who work with Renu’s NGO for ladies who have been victims of DV. It was such a unique experience because travelling through South Asia you rarely get to interact with local ladies and hear their stories. Renu is a great bridge because she speaks fluent Hindi and English. Can’t recommend it enough!!!

Ranu's cooking event was a great experience! She was very well prepared & had many interesting facts & lots of information to share with us, taking time to answer all the questions we had. There was plenty of absolutely delicious food & the recipies she gave us brilliant. I would recommend her cooking course to anyone who would like to find out (more) about Ayruvedic cooking in a professional, informative yet very relaxed atmosphere.

I did a cooking class with Renu and can only give her praise for it! She is super knowledgable and excellent at teaching the basic knowledge needed for preparing delicious Ayurvedic food. I also enjoyed the fact that everyone could chose how much 'hands on' work they could do. I can highly recommend Renu's Ayurvedic cooking classes to anyone visiting or staying in Rishikesh.

Renu is very friendly and she has a huge knowledge about Ayurveda and everything she teaches. The environment is very welcoming, clean and organised.. We cooked the food and then I served my take away (very full). The food was amazing! I learnt how to use all the spices and then she sent me the recipes, so now I can do in my home. It was a wonderful experience!

We did a cooking class with Renu and really enjoyed it. She is very knowledgeable and explained us a lot about Ayurveda & Ayurvedic cooking. The food was delicious & healthy. Highly recommended.
