Descrizione
Join a cooking class and jewelry-making workshop in Galle. Visit local markets to pick fresh ingredients, learn to cook traditional Sri Lankan dishes, and create your own piece of jewelry.
Begin your experience with a seamless pickup from your accommodation (within 15 km of Galle Fort) before heading to the vibrant local fish and vegetable markets. Alongside your local host, handpick fresh seasonal produce, seafood, and aromatic spices for your afternoon feast.
Upon arriving at a traditional home, relax with a refreshing local welcome drink and a brief orientation of the day's activities.

Step into the artisan workshop to shape, solder, and polish your own sterling silver piece using traditional hand tools while your fresh market ingredients are cleaned and prepared for cooking.
Next, head into the kitchen to master traditional clay-pot cooking, coconut scraping, and spice grinding as you prepare a spread of 5 to 7 authentic Sri Lankan curries. Sit down together with the welcoming team to enjoy the complete home-cooked feast you helped create.
