A hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 12 students. See our registration policies here and our rules for in-person events here.

To meet the cold and wet nature of our winters in San Francisco, Meghna looks to the street food of Mumbai as inspiration. These are comforting dishes that are warming and nourishing. Our main dish will be a Pav Bhaji, a spiced medley of vegetables (bhaji) cooked with tomatoes and spices and served with toasted buttered buns (pav), a quintessential Mumbai street food loved by all ages. Pakoras, or mixed vegetable fritters, are a great antidote to rainy weather, paired with a fiery chutney and cooling sweet mango lassi.
