We booked "Classic Fare from Asia" with Chef Parsati for a company team building event and it was fun!
Chef Parsati welcomed us in to her home and had everything we needed provided for us. We learned how to cook quick and easy dishes that we'll be trying at home.

It was such a lovely, educational evening!
Prior to arriving, Chef Parsati was very responsive in our communications.
Our party of six was quickly greeted by Chef Parsati in her beautiful home. The house was inviting and she made us feel at ease. Our group of friends have never done anything like this and didn’t know what to expect, but the Chef was able to communicate clearly what we would be doing and laid out the game plan for the entire evening.
She provided a small dish of eggrolls to start, but that was the only thing we would eat that night that we didn’t cook. She walked us through what to make, what seasonings to add, and provided all the necessary equipments (knives, bowls, utensils) to make this an enjoyable experience. Chef Parsati taught us small tips and tricks to cooking which was invaluable. She took an abundance of photos and she shared with us via google photos link.
Overall, it was a fun time with lots of laughs in a cozy, intimate setting.

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

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

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.

Fantastic class. Chef Parsati taught my wife and I how to make amazing vegan biryani in great detail. The class was a relaxed environment and we had so much fun. We went through every step of making biryani to understand why each step was taken. We also learned how to adapt the recipe at each of those steps depending on equipment, ingredients, and time available. At the end of the course, we had the best vegetarian biryani I have ever had, and my wife and I have the confidence to make this again at home.
