This isn't just a cooking class—it's a soulful, multi-sensory experience designed to transport you to a sun-drenched island.

I was also a little worried about remembering all of the spices we used for the different items we cooked, but she assured me I would be sent a pdf file of the recipes. I would definitely recommend her and I can't wait to try the recipe out for myself.
  • 5/5 from Barbara Osterhout, attended May 2026: Our chef was very knowledgeable and congenial, making it fun to learn while we enjoyed the entire cooking experience.

Everything worked perfectly, and it made for a wonderful gift experience. Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Mel Simpson, attended May 2025: I had a wonderful experience taking a cooking class with Parsati in San Jose on May 13th, 2025. As someone who’s been trying to build a strong foundation in cooking, I truly appreciated how patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging she was throughout the session. Parsati did a fantastic job breaking down the basics and emphasizing the importance of proper technique. She helped me understand not just what to do, but why each step matters-something I found incredibly helpful as a beginner. I also appreciated how she guided me through learning about ingredients and how to adjust or customize recipes to suit my own preferences. Thanks to her guidance, I left the class feeling more confident and excited to keep practicing. I highly recommend Parsati’s cooking class to anyone looking to improve their skills or gain a solid introduction to cooking.

Highly recommend attending her Seafood class, though she has plenty of more options, including for vegans!
