It’s one thing to experiment with cooking at home, and entirely another to learn under someone else’s guidance. Cooking classes are a great way to pick up new skills or sharpen the ones you already have. We’ve rounded up the best cooking classes in Pune for you to check out.

Rajul's Cookery Classes

Rajul Sanghvi has been teaching cookery classes since 1997, from quick and simple to scrumptious and exotic dishes. All her classes are centred around vegetarian food, but span different cuisines – Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Punjabi and much more. Her classes are held twice a week – on Saturday and Wednesday from 1.00 pm to 4.30 pm and are priced between INR 1000 to INR 1500 depending on the category. You can view the entire schedule with details on her website.

Growing Chef Studio is an exclusive kids’ cooking studio, run by Ekta Malhotra. From ‘Cook Around The World’ summer camps for kids, to ‘cook-alongs’ for kids and their parents, ‘baking birthday’ parties, and even a cooking club for kids – we think it’s a great way to introduce your children to food on a whole new level. They’ll learn how to prep and cook their own food, try new cuisines, tastes, textures, techniques, skills, as well as food etiquette. The children are grouped in batches according to their age, and kids between the ages of 4 – 19 years can sign up for after-school cooking classes, or the weekend cooking clubs as well.
