A euphoric experience
Mar 2023 • Couples
The whole experience was 10 out of 10.
The cooking class was fantastic. All of the products came from the spice garden, and the meal was exceptional. I can’t speak highly enough.

So much knowledge in a beautiful location
May 2022 • Friends
Pradeep started off by giving us all the info on the amazing gardens at Euphoria and the medicinal qualities of so many beautiful and flavourful plants and herbs. His passion for the properties of each herb and its uses is infectious, and he is always happy to answer every question you have. I learnt so much here. Shall then took us through an awesome cooking class where we got to use things straight from the garden. He has so much passion and energy for cooking the food just like he remembers growing up, that it's hard not to have a great time.. even better getting to eat the spoils of your hard work either! Thanks guys for an awesome morning!

Great family run garden
Jan 2022 • Friends
Had a great cooking class and lunch buffet. Food was very good with good choices. Everything is organic and grown at the spice garden. The lime soda and chocolate shake were excellent.

Had a good tour and explanation of the plants and how to use for medical treatments.

One of a king experience
Dec 2021 • Couples
Amazing experience. Started with the spices and herbs tour with the support of a super friendly and nice guy called “Pardepe”, he shared with us alot of information about the plants and the benefits of it, as well as the way to harvest it and lots more.. After that we had a cooking session with the place owners “Wife & Husband”, the whole cooking experience was perfect, and the outcome was really tasty. Highly recommend this place.

Best meal I ever had! Great experience!
Nov 2021 • Friends
Ruwandi and Shal are great hosts! You will walk throw spice gardens, they will explain you everything about all herbs and spices from Sri Lanka - you will see pineapples, cloves, coffee, vanilla, cocoa, cinamon and much more.
Than you will go for cooking class - you will use products from Ruwandis farm - everything is natural and it is fantastic even during the process - to smell all that amazing spices. I wouldn't say that I am master chef, but several courses we prepared, were fabulous! If you want to learn how to cook like Sri Lankan, if you want to taste great meal and if you are foodie like Shal, you have to come to Euphoria spice garden!
