Overview

Enjoy a private and authentic cooking class in a local home with host Yashna
who belongs to a Mauritian family that loves cooking, eating and entertaining friends and family. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local culture over food. Your cooking class will take place in a local home kitchen where Yashna will teach you how to make 2-3 traditional Mauritian dishes from their family recipes. After cooking, you will enjoy your meal together in your host's Mauritian home.

• Cooking lesson in a local home
• Introduction to Mauritius culture and cuisine
• 100% private activity
• Experience Mauritian hospitality in a residential Mare D Albert neighborhood
• Vegetarian and gluten free options available

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Yashna lives in a beautiful home with her parents and brothers, just 10 minutes from the airport. Her food is fresh and seasonal, she uses vegetables from her backyard garden and freshly caught fish. The cuisine of Mauritius is a blend of Chinese, European and Indian influences. Join Yashna in the kitchen to learn to cook her family recipes, that have been passed down from one generation to another. The duration of your hands-on class will be 2-3 hours. You will first tour Yashna's backyard and see all the vegetables, fruits and herbs she grows. Then learn to make two dishes from scratch - an appetizer and main dish.

A fantastic experience that I fully recommend! Yashna and her family were very warm, welcoming and interested in smiling a glimpse into their life. They even gave some very nice recommendations on things to do and foods to try to further experience Mauritius. Overall an absolutely wonderful evening
