Private Farmers Market Tour and Home Cooking Class in Cologne

Treat yourself to a unique home cooking class in Cologne, guided by your host who is no stranger to the art of immersive storytelling. Together, you will create a delicious meal in her kitchen-dining space. The event is private and dedicated just for you, whether you book for yourself or up to 4 as a group. In warmer weather, if natural light permits, you have the option of dining outdoors, in the communal garden! The host lives with her partner and they own a sweet, medium-sized dog who welcomes cuddles! The meal designed from German recipes, feature local seasonal produce with Nadia’s personal touches. Curious yet respectful, she draws influences from her childhood in Singapore, travels and the years she lived in Rome, Italy to complement German cuisine in an exciting and memorable way, through select choices in ingredients and cooking techniques. Afterwards, the recipes will be emailed to you, so you can recreate them back home!

Did you know Cologne was a former Roman colony for 500 years? And yet, the Romans were not the only ones who imparted their culinary skills. Did you know the famous “Pied Piper” legend came from a German town and resulted in the creation of an 18th-century dish that translates literally to “rat tails”? All these curiosities and more await you as the event unfolds! The host’s menu shifts with the seasons, and is customised to suit your dietary preferences. She will get in touch with you a few days before your event to plan the meal. You will make three dishes from scratch: kartoffelkloße (German potato dumplings) or laugenknödel, (pretzel dumpling), an accompaniment and not forgetting dessert to end on a sweet note! For the market tour add-on, your host offers a neighbourhood farmers' market tour. Expect to add an additional 1-1.5 hours to the event as she takes you through the stands, meet and greet some of the friendly farmers and shop for your meal!
