A cultural and culinary journey where food meets artistry—perfect for curious cooks, makers, and culture lovers alike.
Discover the rich flavors and artistry of India in this one-of-a-kind hands-on class. Bring your handmade ceramics to life with authentic Indian chutneys prepared on site with Chef Karthi. You bring ceramic dishes (either ones you've made or handmade by someone else!) and we take care of the rest!
Learn to make tangy tamarind chutney, refreshing mint-coriander chutney, and sweet mango chutney, paired with crisp papad and warm naan. As you mix, taste, and share, you’ll enjoy the connection between craft and cuisine—taking home new knowledge of creating chutneys and plating them in your beloved ceramics.
