HANDS-ON COOKING

IN THE KITCHEN

Learn by cooking.

Sri Lankan cooking is built around layers of flavour — spices toasted and ground, coconut used in different forms, vegetables prepared simply, and several dishes brought together around one meal.

At Wild Grass, the experience takes you beyond simply tasting the food. Cook alongside our team, learn how the dishes are prepared and then sit down to enjoy what you've made.

THE EXPERIENCE

Cook the traditional way.

The experience takes place at the Chena Hut, our village-style kitchen and dining space within Wild Grass. Here, you'll prepare a Sri Lankan lunch alongside our team, making one non-vegetarian and three vegetarian dishes.

Depending on what you're preparing, you might grind kurakkan, make kurakkan rotti or coconut sambol, work rice from paddy using a mortar and pestle, or grate fresh coconut by hand. It's a practical introduction to some of the ingredients and techniques that remain part of Sri Lankan cooking.
