A Heritage of Flavour
Three generations of Sri Lankan culinary tradition, now shared with the world from our home in Kandy.
Our Story Begins in the Hills of Kandy
Heritage Kandy Cooking Class was born from a simple love of sharing food and stories. Located at 57, Augestawattha, Kandy, Sri Lanka, our family home sits among the verdant hills of Kandy, surrounded by cinnamon, pepper, and cardamom that grow naturally in our garden.
For three generations, our family has been preparing traditional Kandyan cuisine using recipes that have remained unchanged for over a century. What started as hosting friends and neighbours for meals gradually evolved into welcoming travellers from around the world into our kitchen.
Today, we offer an immersive, hands-on cooking experience where guests do not just watch — they cook. From grinding spices on a traditional stone mortar to stirring curry over a wood-fired stove, every moment is a connection to the rich culinary heritage of Sri Lanka.
Our Philosophy
What guides us in every cooking class we host.
Farm to Table
Every ingredient we use is sourced locally — many from our own organic garden. We believe the best Sri Lankan food starts with the freshest spices, vegetables, and coconut, picked that very morning.
Cooked with Love
In Sri Lankan culture, food is love. We welcome every guest as family, and every meal is prepared with the same care and warmth that has defined our kitchen for generations.
Preserving Tradition
Our recipes are unchanged — no shortcuts, no fusion. We teach the traditional methods of Kandyan cooking exactly as they were taught to us by our grandmothers.
Cultural Connection
Food is the doorway to culture. Through cooking, our guests gain a deeper understanding of Sri Lankan life, traditions, and the warm hospitality we are known for.
Excellence Always
We are committed to making every class the best part of your Sri Lanka trip. Our 5-star rating comes from genuine passion and attention to detail in everything we do.
Rooted in Kandy
Kandy is the cultural capital of Sri Lanka. Our location near the Temple of the Tooth gives guests the perfect opportunity to combine cultural heritage with culinary exploration.
