Many thanks Rita & staff for the market tour & cooking instruction. Brilliant day, wonderful quality food & insight into Goan culture. Rita is passionate about cooking which is reflected in her professional high quality classes. Would definitely recommend.

I attended to the 5 hours Goan cuisine cooking course with Rita - before I attended the course, Rita and her husband were very responsive to my enquiries via emails/phone and provided me with all necessary information. I understand that Rita is happy to provide the course even when there is only one attendee. Rita's venue was only 5-10 mins drive away from Dabolim airport (by taxi it would be about 200 rupees), which was convenient for me to go to since I just landed Goa that morning.

I felt extremely welcomed by Rita and her husband once I arrived to the venue, which was particularly nice since I was travelling solo. The venue itself was very colourful and beautiful - it was outdoor with cover which made it a very relaxing environment!

Rita provided traditional Indian breakfast, gave a tour of a local market (Vasco market as I remembered), and the main part of the course was the interactive lesson on cooking Goan dishes as well as desserts. Throughout the course, Rita patiently explained all ingredients/dishes and answered all questions I had, she was extremely informative and I felt like I have learnt a lot in a relatively short period of time! Rita also made sure that I have a proper go at preparing and cooking the food e.g. cutting the fish, mixing the sauce, marinating the chicken, rolling the dough etc. Rita also has to assistants who were of great help.

Rita sent me a follow up email with all recipes as well as photos taken from her DSLR during the cooking course, how considerate!

Rita's passion on cooking was absolutely admirable and I have learnt so much from her, really you can't ask for a better teacher/course in Goa - it was the perfect start to my trip to Goa!
