Warm spices, creamy coconut milk, and the kind of kitchen confidence that follows you home -- this Massaman curry class is your new favorite thing to do in New York City! Chef Saruj leads you through an approachable, hands-on experience where you’ll learn how to make a rich, aromatic Chicken Massaman Curry from scratch -- one of Southeast Asia’s most beloved dishes -- alongside fresh spring rolls wrapped in delicate rice paper with vibrant vegetables and herbs. If you’re plant-based, a tofu substitute is available; just let the team know when you book.
Whether you’ve always wanted to crack the massaman curry recipe code, or you’re simply looking for a fun date idea, bachelorette party activity, or a creative night out with friends, this class was made for you. Cooking for beginners is literally the point here -- you don’t need any prior experience to show up and thrive. Some people want to be hands-on for every step; others are happier assisting and taste-testing their way through. Both are completely welcome, zero judgment.
All ingredients and equipment are provided, and Chef Saruj will make sure you leave not just full, but genuinely equipped to recreate these dishes at home with ingredients you can find at your local market. Bookings must be made in groups of two or more under one name, so bring your people and make a night of it. This is how to make curry -- and have a really good time doing it!
Please note:
Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in, especially if you’re part of a large group.
Guests will be seated with their booking party and will share ingredients and equipment. Outside drinks are not allowed. Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are NOT included in the ticket price. 21+ only.
