Q&A

Q: Can you customize the menu for dietary restrictions?

A: Yes! Smruti is really accommodating when it comes to dietary preferences. She'll work with you to create a menu that suits your needs — whether you're vegetarian, vegan, or have allergies. Just let her know when you book, and she'll make sure you have a delicious experience!

Q: What should I wear to the cooking class?

A: Comfort is key! Wear something casual and that you don't mind getting a little messy. An apron is usually provided, but bring closed-toe shoes because you'll be on your feet. And maybe don't wear your best white shirt—just in case!

Q: Is parking easy at Smruti's place?

A: Yes, parking is pretty straightforward. There’s usually street parking available right near her house. Just watch for any street signs so you don’t get a ticket. If you're going during the market tour, I suggest coming a bit early as it can get busy.

Just took the Indian Cooking Class in Pleasanton—such a blast!

I recently gifted the Indian Inspired Cooking Class to my partner for their birthday, and wow! Smruti was incredible, super welcoming. We made a delicious chickpea curry, naan, and a fresh salad with California veggies. The local wine pairing was a perfect touch too! Highly recommend it if you're looking for something fun and interactive. Just a heads up, the market tour on Saturday is a must-do!

Considering an Indian Cooking Class as a gift—thoughts?

Hey everyone! I’m thinking of getting the Indian Inspired Cooking Class for my mom. She loves Indian food but never really cooks it. Has anyone done this? How was the experience? Any tips on what to expect?
