Thibbatuhena, Nidangala, Kotawila - Warakapitiya Rd, Mirissa, Sri Lanka
The nicest rice and curry I had so far, the price was totals worth it. The place is vegan and spicy just the right amount. Atmosphere is really nice and friendly, the cook Shiwanthi is the master of kitchen. If I ever come back to Sri Lanka, this is the place I want to visit again! Also surroundings are really nice, Dasun is taking really good care of his paradise garden. Shame I don’t have more time in Sri Lanka - I would love to take cooking class from Shiwanthi!
You can’t miss this, best food I have tasted in Sri Lanka and I have been here for a month! What a wonderful evening spent with this beautiful family. We were welcomed in for an amazing cooking class where we learned all about authentic Sri Lankan spices as well as the entire process of making coconut milk and sambaal. She makes her own coconut oil and I was so grateful to see such fresh ingredients, so healthy. It definitely is a cosmic place with lots of magic if you want to learn. Thank you so much for having us.
This was such an incredible experience! We took cooking class, where you could feel like home cooking, everything was explained very well and informative. Food at the end turned out to be the best we ate in Sri Lanka so far, and it was plenty of food, which sadly we couldn’t finish till the end :) our bellies were full and happy and heart was filled with good emotions because of this family, that run the place! Definitely worth to do some detour for this special experience :) Thank you!
Possibly one of the most unforgettable meals of my life. It’s such an intimate experience to cook and prepare food with locals in a rustic adventurous setting. The food was great and the company was fun.
What a stroke of luck that we stumbled upon this cooking class while searching online! Initially, the location seemed a bit remote, but don't let that deter you – it's truly worth the trip. Plus, they took excellent care of us by organizing our ride back, which was much appreciated. The class itself was fantastic; we prepared so many different dishes, and every single one was bursting with flavor. Inspired by our creations, a trip to the spice market is next on our list. Without a doubt, this cooking class is a must-do!
