"I was able  prepare the meals that I learned in Shefaly's class in my own kitchen. Shefaly is great about giving the meal context by explaining the culture around the food, the season, the region and maybe a little history. In addition, the class was low-pressure, casual, conversational, hands-on, and fun. She explained where to buy ingredients that can't be found at standard grocery stores. Her cooking class was really a treat."

"I have always loving eating Indian dishes, but had never tried my hand at cooking it until I participated in two of Shefaly’s early cooking classes at her home.  The classes were fun, educational, and the food was delicious.  Even for a beginner, the recipes are easily followed with very successful results."

"On my first solo attempt in creating one of Shefay’s dishes I made her Chicken Curry recipe for over 40 Indian guests at a party I was hosting. Everyone kept asking where the Chicken Curry dish came from.  They were very surprised when I gave myself, along with Shefaly, credit for the creation."

"If you want to learn or improve your Indian cooking, take Shef's classes.  I couldn't be happier with what I've learned under her teaching.  Her methods and advice make learning or improving approachable and memorable.  Nearly everything I've taken from her classes I've incorporated into my own kitchen with success."
