Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

We had an amazing evening with Lank.
We were able to book it the same day and easily found the place.
We immediately got aprons and chef's hats and a thorough explanation about the balancing of tastes and ingredients.
All the ingredients were fresh and local and the cooking utensils were authentic.
We immediately started with the different preparations and slowly the grand plan Lank had devised for dinner unfolded into a wonderful meal.
We did everything by ourselves with many explanations about local traditions and ideas. Lank was full of interesting stories and thoughts.
After 2 hours we had a wonderful 8 dish meal and we were very proud.

We loved our cooking class, there was just me and my 4 year old son. It was very hands on and learnt a lot about cooking Sri Lanka food. And they were very welcoming and let the rest of the family enjoy the meal. Thank you for having us.

We really enjoyed this cooking class- it was just the two of us so we had lots to do and enjoyed a delicious meal after. Lank was a great teacher, and an advocate of a hands on approach (however long it took to break the coconut!)

This class has lots of potential, but I’m afraid the chef might be getting a little greedy and is putting his good name to risk.
The space is tiny, and 20(!!) people were booked in at 4pm for a 90 minute cooking class. 4 people immediately walked out so we ended up with 16. I’d say the space can handle 8.
Given there were so many people, most of what was happening was lost. Down one end we cracked coconuts, while the other end made the dessert and organised the Dahl and rice. In the end everyone bunches around 2 stoves and kind of half helps cook the curries.
The recipes were good, and the end result very tasty, but we didn’t get out of there until 8pm. 4 hours for a 90 minute class is unacceptable, and clearly caused by the overbooking.
Stick strictly to a 10 person maximum, and this would be a great class!

After the Bombings in Colombo, Not Too Many People will arrive in Sri Lanka. On that night we had a large group of Europeans who were leaving Ella the next day & sat in Class, made the others walk away & had a wonderful night, they thought that 'the more were merrier' though the numbers receded. If there were too many people, "searchfordelicious" could've perhaps walked out ? .... as many walked away before the session began. Kindly understand that we in SL Treat every Visitor as a form of the spirit of 'G-d, the Source, the Super Natural, so we can't ask them to 'Leave'. This is a difference in Culture of the east compared to the west.
All other Cookery Classes were closed on that New Year (Sinhala /Tamil Harvest) day, So every guest who wanted to do an 'Evening Thing' came to us, the papa. We sacrificed our day of Celebration to enable people to learn & burned our own fingers, we are always on the suffering end of grief, sadness, poverty, greed, down trodden compared to the elitists, and now vulnerable for attacks by undesirable outfits from the Middle East.

I completed the cookery class with my wife and 2 friends. We booked on during the day and were given the price which was 2000 rupees per person for the class.
The class was in a small kitchen and there was 10 people participating. It started with a quick lesson on tastes and ingredients.
The chef was charismatic and fun with good knowledge and tips. The food cooked was very tasty and the recipes were sent by email to cook at home.
The down sides(not many):
1. Too many cooks spoilt the broth. 10 people in a small space was too many. We didnt feel we got the same skills and knowledge as if there were fewer people as between us I think each person cut a piece of veg and out a handful of spices into the dishes. As well as made plenty of Roti's. But think it would of been better with 5 or 6 people. It felt rushed with 10 not taking time to understand and take in exactly what we were doing.
- stung with an expensive hidden cost! On agreeing price we were told 2000 rupees per person which is reasonable. Whilst cooking the chefs brought out a plate of chicken and casually asked if everybody was eating chicken. We all said yes and it got made into a curry. Nothing further mentioned.
To our shock, on paying our balance we were told it was an extra 500 rupees each(1000 a couple) for the chicken. This worked out as 5000 rupees(£22!) within the group and an extra quarter of the total cost of the class. There had been no mention of the extra cost before or during the class and when asked about it the chef smiled and said we had asked for it. We begrudgingly paid it as we needed to go home for curfew. This left is feeling a little conned for more money. Especially as it was all cuts of chicken which was mainly bone and the only curry which was left at the end.
All in all a very good class and a good chef to teach. Just need to be more upfront about extra costs when offering another item we didnt realise we were paying extra for and consider limiting people in class to enhance the experience.

Thank you for your critique, ... We agreed at Rs.2000 for eight (8) dishes. Naturally, if we all agreed to an additional dish (meat) & Papadam there was an additional charge, ending with 10 dishes.
We do agree that we didn't indicate the extra charge at the outset. We plead a 1000 apologies & seek your forgiveness. Next time we shall lay down all costs at the beginning and 'Continuously Improve'.
It was certainly rushed, though we did want to facilitate a Class with all kinds of Sri Lankan Food - viz: Food from Plants, Vines, Trees, Water, Underground, Air, Dynamic (Moving) & the Cocoon (Coconut).

Nous avons réservé les cours de cuisine au Ella Rocks en arrivant sur le lieu par hasard.
Ce cours de cuisine est une vraie pépite et découverte culinaire. Le chef et son équipe sont tes attentionnés et donnent de très bonnes explications. Nous avons fini le cours par la dégustation de nos plats : c’était délicieux. Cela restera certainement le meilleur souvenir gastronomique de notre voyage.
Le cours est donné en anglais et vous recevrez les recettes à la fin du cours. Le prix est totalement raisonnable par rapport à l’expérience et la qualité de l’activité.

After falling in love with Sri Lankan food I knew I had to squeeze in a cooking class during our trip. Ella Rocks did not disappoint! It was just the two of us and we had a great time learning how to make our new favourite dishes. It was a very hands on class and we enjoyed the feast at the end.

Wij hadden een geweldige avond en ervaring met Lank, een super sympathieke, grappige mens. Wij kregen ook al de recepten via mail doorgestuurd! Zeker doen als je in Ella bent, de enigste goeie kookschool!

We had a great evening at Ella Rocks - cooking in the open space with the amazing view was a unique experience. We learned a lot about the methods and ingredients and made some tasty food which we then enjoyed with the other students. But it was really just a great way to spend the evening - the hosts are lovely. Highly recommended!
