I went to the ayurvedic cooking class to celebrate my birthday and had a blast. We made 5 different things. Everything on the menu was very flavorful and delicious but also very healthy. We look forward to taking more classes with this instructor. Chef Parsati is awesome. She enjoys teaching and answering questions. She also has a very kind and welcoming demeanor. We also really liked that she frequently explained different substitutions. It really is clear that she is interested in making sure you actually will be able to recreate these dishes at home. Can't wait to go back again!!

Chef Parsati was so knowledgeable about food in general and was able to teach me a lot about cooking. Not just the recipes themselves, but about how I can use different techniques to make each dish my own. Great experience with yummy good and amazing company!

I did the Ayurveda course from Chef Parsati as a Christmas gift for my mom and she loved it!!! The experience was amazing, all the meals we cooked were so delicious, and we learned so much about the ayurveda cooking from Chef Parsati. I am a full on beginner but I felt comfortable in Chef Parsati's kitchen. The vibes were great and the food. 10/10 experience!

This class was amazing and the food we made was delicious! The class was in a beautiful kitchen, and Chef Parsati was very careful about cleanliness and safety. We used organic whole fresh ingredients and Chef Parsati explained each step and ingredient to make sure we were learning as we went. She even offered tips about adapting these recipes for different kitchens and using them for meal prepping. She provided us the recipes after, and I’m excited to try these out again at home. Overall a wonderful experience!

Very welcoming to her home and very knowledgeable. She always encourages hands on cooking. Highly recommended!
Conner S.
My wife and I took a couples cooking class, and we chose Chef Parsati’s because we enjoy Indian food and love the idea of using and eating everything. Chef Parsati was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. She helped explain cooking techniques and broke down the recipe so we, as amateurs, could understand. The finished product was delicious as it was healthy! I would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking to try something new and learn some techniques that they will be able to use every time they cook.

Exciting Dumpling Duos
with Chef Parsati
in San Jose (Edenvale)
A huge thank you to Chef Parsati for such an incredible cooking class experience! Learning how to make both vegetarian and chicken dumplings from scratch was so much fun, but what made it even more special was how much knowledge she shared along the way.
Not only did we learn cooking techniques, but she also taught us about the nutritional value of using fresh herbs and ingredients to season the filling naturally. The passion, patience, and care she brought to the experience made it unforgettable.
Amazing food, amazing energy, and an amazing teacher — we loved every minute of it and can’t wait to take another class!

Gluten-Free Dumpling Delights
with Chef Parsati
in San Jose (Edenvale)
Gluten Free Dumpling Delights class taught my friends and I how to make dough for steamed dumplings with ground chicken, veggies and spices and we also used rice paper for a lightly fried veggie with chickpeas and spices roll. We assisted making these rolls. Chef Parsati showed us how to make the sauces for them. We also made a chocolate, mango dessert with coconut flour and cardamon spice. We all really enjoyed the flavors of the hot foods.
Chef was friendly, knowledgeable, social and helpful. Class was held in her home kitchen. She did prep work before we began and she cleaned up after we left. The table was preset for our meal. It was a lovely experience.

The Best Vegan Biryani Ever
with Chef Parsati
in San Jose (Edenvale)
Wow--we made Vegetable Biryani (easily made vegan) which was amazing. We accompanied it with tandoori potatoes and halwa for dessert. Chef Parsati was so welcoming and encouraging, talking fast and working at the same time in her well-stocked kitchen. My son gave me the gift of the cooking class for my birthday and I brought a friend. I bought a spice box from Chef Parsati so I could make this festive meal at home. So excited. What a fun adventure. Highly recommend to all.

Indian Grilling 101
with Chef Parsati
in San Jose (Edenvale)
Chef Parsati is a treasure of a human being. From the moment we stepped in, she made both us feel welcome as if we were long lost relatives. Not only did she ask very insightful questions about our relationship with cooking and food, but she tailored the experience to our respective backgrounds. The engagement and flow were world class. We learned more about each other along the way and it was truly an experience either of us will never forget it. The personal touch that she provides is a rare gift. Very thankful for the attention to detail and stewardship. Highly would recommend to anyone, even if they aren't one who ventures into the kitchen often. You might surprise yourself after this class.

Just finished an amazing cooking experience with Chef Parsati!! She tailored her recipes to my family's dietary needs and shared her philosophy and techniques around healthy cooking. Chef talked about the key spices, how to use them, and the ratios and order to ensure the most flavorful dishes. The food was AMAZING! I will definitely book another class with her next month when I am back in California.

Indian Cooking Techniques

We very much enjoyed Parsati’s class! We took Indian Cooking Techniques and learned how to make Chicken Pasanda as well as a rice, salad, and dessert.
Parsati was very welcoming, friendly and is clearly an experienced cook in a variety of cuisines. She answered all of our questions knowledgeably, and explained the variations in techniques and ingredients necessary to make many dishes beyond the ones we were making.
I’d definitely recommend any class taught by Parsati!

Exciting Dumpling Duos
with Chef Parsati
in San Jose (Edenvale)
We attended Chef Parsati's "Exciting Dumpling Duos" lunch cooking class on May 17th, and it was a fun experience! My daughter and I enjoyed bonding while learning to make fried vegetarian and steamed chicken dumplings in her clean, well-organized kitchen. The class is great for beginners or those looking for a casual, hands-on activity.
While the recipes were simple and the pace felt a bit rushed, Chef Parsati’s expertise and professionalism stood out. The price was on the higher side, but that’s expected for Bay Area experiences. I’d love to work with Chef Parsati directly for a more personalized class in the future. Overall, it was a memorable and enjoyable time!

Gluten-Free Dumpling Delights
with Chef Parsati

We learned how to cook dumplings of several kinds. The best thing about Chef Parsati was how easily she demonstrated many possible variations of the dishes which catered to our dietary restrictions. The ingredients were healthy and her techniques ensured that the cooking time was sufficiently short to be adapted for a busy schedule. The dessert was amazing as well and I was amazed to see how efficient the techniques she demonstrated were. I will highly recommend this to everyone. This is a great bonding activity for couples.
