My daughter and I attend a vegan street food cooking class. Monica and mum made us feel very welcome into there home. They are both very knowledgable and know their stuff. Got some good cooking tips and tips to help with certain ailments. The food was very delicious. I made a couple of the dishes which turned out ok. I will do them again but will do the recipe properly need time. Great cooking class and we will definitely do another one. More...

For Xmas last year I asked for experiences and this was one of my gifts.... WOW! I HAD “THE” MOST AMAZING TIME! It’s given me skills I can use again, a fantastic experience and a great memory. I was very honoured to be invited into the family home for this cooking experience. I was met at the door by Monica herself and as we went into the kitchen I met her mother...another very skilled lady in the kitchen. I don’t want to labour on however Monica and her mum are amazing in the kitchen, they made me feel at ease and helped me become a better cook. I was extremely pleased to get a compliment from Monica’s mum on my chapati making skills...a compliment from the expert! Thank you Monica for an amazing experience and thank you Monica’s mum for the compliment. More...

I attended the Mumbai Street Food cookery course and I absolutely loved it. Monica and her mother are so welcoming and made everyone feel at ease. We were making a range of dishes which included chilli chicken and chickpea curry. Everyone had the opportunity to chop and prep, we rolled out dough and learnt about a range of spices. At the end, when you’ve learnt how to cook and help prep, everyone sits down together to eat. I had a fab time and would highly recommend it. Thank you to Monica and her mum!! More...

We went as a family of 4 with next to no knowledge other than cooking from a jar. The 3 hours was very hands on, the food was the nicest food I had ever tasted and it was so easy to make. Monica is what makes the experience great, you can see she has a passion for the food rather than just there as a business to make as mush profit as possible. After cooking we got waited on and ate like kings, even the wine was delicious. We travelled 170 miles to get there and it was well worth it. More...

We were given a warm welcome from Monica and her assistant Andy. After a brief introduction, we went to the kitchen. The kitchen was adequately sized with an enviable collection of indian spice. The introduction provided by Monica was still very interesting, and it was a great way to make the guests feel, touch and smell the spices to get some idea about them. The recipes to be featured in the cookery session were elaborate, but Monica made them appear very easy to follow and comprehend, and she gave equal attention to every guest with different skill level. She made every one cook part or all of a recipe and timed it perfectly as well. She also shared brilliant knowhow about preserving spices and vegetables, doing little checks to during various stages of cooking, which are rarely found in cookbook recipes and these small tricks are usually passed over the generations. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and I'll definitely be looking forward to the popup restaurants/ supperclubs and future cookery sessions. More...

What a great way to start the day!?! A cooking class. This is actually my second class with The Spice Club, the first one Mumbai Street Food and the second, Punjabi Vegan Dinner Party. Monica was the perfect host & chef. Her understanding on indian cuisine is on point! We learnt so many tips and tricks along the way. Being indian myself, I found myself saying 'oohh I didn't know that' a few times!! A class suitable for anyone, I actually took my 14 year nephew and he really enjoyed it, he decided to make the samosas as part of his school cooking project. No matter how well or not you know Indian cuisine, this is definitely a fun, interactive and refreshing way to learn. I'd highly recommend it with friends, a date or even solo! More...
