Cooking Lesson in Varq

Today we went along to a cooking lesson in the Taj Mahal hotel in Delhi, which was really nice.It was seated in the garden so we had the sun on our backs, we were seated around tables in a U shape and in the middle was the Chef from their restaurant Varq. We love their food and have eaten there a few times so we thought why not learn how to cook some of their dishes!

What we didn't know was that they filmed the whole thing and we were the "special" guests along with an older lady. And the rest of the people there were from the film crew.

The Chef did a great job chopping, cooking and explaining how to do things. I even got a chance to go up and do it along with her, don't think she needs to be scared of loosing her job tho because I couldn't even wisk it properly. Not that she said anything, but she did redo it...!

Along with the lesson we had plenty of lovely champagne and got to taste everything, mmm.
And after the show we had a 4 course lunch inside their restaurant, we were stuffed!!!!

A great day of eating and drinking !
