Let's get cooking
I’ve always believed in hands-on, real learning. This means that in every class, you will actually be the one watching, learning, cooking (and eating too!). Our classes, here at A World Away, take you away from the city bustle to unwind, relax and immerse yourself in the soulful experience of cooking.
Tucked away in Alibaug, your cooking retreat will begin at 9am at the Gateway of India jetty where a speedboat will ferry you to Alibaug. From there, cars are ready waiting to bring you to our home and kitchen in Awas. We then spend the day chatting, learning, cooking, eating and then making our way back to the jetty by about 5pm.
A few key general course details…
Course fees: Rs. 6,500 all-inclusive per person, per class
This includes:
- Pick-up at Gateway at 9am and drop-off at 5pm by speedboat (15 minutes each way)
- Transport to my farm in Awas, Alibaug (10 minutes from the jetty)
- Morning coffee with tea cakes on arrival
- Lunch served with some of the dishes prepared in class, and by me too
- Teas, coffees, beverages, throughout the day
- Individual class notes and recipes are provided
To make sure I can give each one enough attention, I teach a maximum of 10-12 people at each class.
