Absolutely amazing! I booked this on a whim and I must say I absolutely loved every second of it! Both of our cooks were incredible! I thoroughly enjoyed the cooking process, and the vibes were wonderful! I eventually got the hang of making the required momo shape. Both chefs were amazing at helping all of us, and the momo tasted delicious! They gave us tea and different variations of momo to try! There was lots of delicious food! Highly recommend it to everyone! Still dreaming of those momo!
