What our Guests Say

A Magical Moment

"We did a cooking class at Ella spice garden and had a great time! The chef was great. All the staff were very caring. The chef took us to tour the garden and explained a lot about the plants. It was great. We learned to cook 7 different Sri Lankan recipes and were able to taste them. That was delicious. I highly recommend this experience."

Fabulous Cooking Experience

"Theeka took us on an informative tour of his spice garden. We were treated to an amazing cooking experience and are still talking about to our friends. What we got from the cooking class was recipes we could make at home and have made many times since coming home and an appreciation for Sri Lankan food. Theeka is a great teacher and we had a fun time sharing his food. We highly recommend his cooking class."
