An amazing experience. Delicious food with great people! - Best way to say farewell to India. I had a few hours before my flight in the afternoon so I decided to book the experience cause I wanted to experience the local life and flavours. Best travelling decision I have made so far. Both Roopak and Nidhi are so welcoming you immediately feel comfortable being there. They greeted me with traditional customs and we got to cook breakfast together. It turned out delicious too! We talked and exchanged information about our countries, they answered my questions about India, played quiz games, had chai (and got to keep the cup as a souvenir) and 4 hours went by without realising! Don’t sleep on it and just go. It’s absolutely worth it!
