If you are from Mumbai and want to always keep the tradition; charmand the taste of our bambai taste buds like bori mohalla mohommad Ali road including bridge candy than i strongly suggest joint patrawala .. Mrs Patrawala is awsome does not know the word NO you the name the recipe and she teaches it and just not teaches it she will also answer your extra question which u are not paying for like to freeze stuff durabilityand cleaning after cooking ... Most importantly her recipes are healthy and yummy .; Awsome with cakes and everything .The stuff which she sells like products are cheaper than market most importantly she is not growing aone she is growing with the people like by supporting small business people very few people do that .... You get more than what u pay ... Would stroy recommend Patrawala classes

This cooking class is horrible. Every second recipe has MSG (ajinomoto) which is a taste maker. Without MSG the dish will not taste good. What is the use of doing a cooking class like this, even we can add MSG and make every dish tasty. MSG is banned in a lot of countries. It's very harmful, especially for kids. Natural flavours should be used instead. Besides that, most dishes have colour as an ingredient, again harmful. One should know how to use natural ingredients and bring colour in the food. Parawala themselves don't have that knowledge. Also, a lot of ready made artificial flavours are used. For examle, tinned tomato pulp is used instead of fresh tomatoes for every recipe which has tomatoes. When i tried making the dish with fresh tomotoes it did not turn out the same as Patrawala made with tinned tomatoes. Over that, it is not a good place to learn, very crowded, no practical experience. Very bad, horrible!

Shaheen Patrawala is just fleecing people. Mixing all ingredients and then putting them on the cooking gas - that's no way to conduct a cooking class. Why should one spend thousands just for this, don't we have enough of free You tube videos showing the same.

A real cooking class is when you are imparted with knowledge of the ingredients, their properties and usage. That's when you learn the real cooking.

Even the cookery products they sell are priced at a premium. You can get the same products at a much lesser rate at Crawford Market. And Patrawala will tell you that they have imported it when they themselves have sourced a lot of those products from Crawford Market.

Apart from that, every recipe has a number of mistakes. Patrawala classes don't even have the courtesy to make the corrections in the soft copy and then give the print out to the participants. So you pay thousands for a recipe full of mistakes. They don't care about the students, they only care about filling their pockets.

I have found the classes in google and she is known as celebrity cook so i have gave it a try it have been there for 2 to 3 monts now and it was so use full now i cook different types of recipes every day ialso advice you to atleast give it a try so you or your children's can learn different types of dishes and learn how to cook well.

Do not waste your money on this Patrawala Cooking Classes. It's  just not worth just a money making racket.

The recipes are all wrong with a thousand corrections, unstructured and badly formatted, rotten English, which will spoil your dish and your mood. A lot of times, I’ve missed adding important ingredients coz of these reasons. If you miss a few corrections, your dish is gone for a toss. Shaheen Patrawala runs the class now. She is an absolutely arrogant immature woman and will insult people who say anything against her liking. She is so lazy, that she can't even make the corrections in the computer and then give a clean copy to people enrolling for the class. When I questioned about this, she shamelessly said they are my recipes and she can do as she likes. She has no courtesy and respect to talk to people. They are not even her own recipes. She has inherited from her mother-in-law, who was used to charge a nominal fee. And his woman is now looting ppl.

After making the countless corrections, you won't even feel like following the recipe as the page will look so untidy. Sometimes she forgets to give some corrections and then blames the students that they didn't note it. For the same recipe the corrections keep changing. There is no consistency. She won't accept her fault. She charges a bomb like Rs 1, 200 for a 2 to 3 hrs course with around 4 to 5 dishes, just not worth. She will just rush through like a Rajdhani Express without even explaining the main points. Better follow YOUTUBE or other free recipe sITES_Company or buy a cook book.

Her Baking cake course is PATHETIC! My cakes got burnt due to her wrong temperatures, my choco lava became hard cup cakes as the bake time was wrong in the recipe.

I have a couple of her recipes and don't mind sharing. I would like to save other people from wasting their money. You can email me on feedbackat@gmail.com

>"The way to a persons heart is through his/her stomach!" This is a very old and the most heard belief. I am sure there is no person, who has not heard this or who does not agree to it.

But, this belief, does not mean that you cook anything and you get a space in someone's heart. Noooo, its not that easy! You need to earn it. YOU NEED TO COOK TASTY FOOD! And, trust me, again that's not something easy!

This is where you need help of a good cook, it may be your mom or sis or someone else. But for me it was Mrs. Shaheen Patrawala. A lady conducting the best(at least for me its the best) cooking classes in south Bombay!

About the class-

Patrawala cooking classes was first conducted by Shaheen Patrawala's mother-in-law, Mrs. Farida Patrawala. She began to conduct this class in the year 1980. Its after her that Mrs. Shaheen Patrawala took up the responsibility, since 2001.

She took this class to a new level. By introducing many new courses which were not being taught in the time of her mother-in-law.

Where is the class conducted?

She conducts the class at her home.

Address- 11-A YMCA Road, Haji Moosa Apartment, 3rd Flr, Flat No-8, Mumbai Central. Mumbai-08.

Students are very comfortable and are able to watch each and every step easily and clearly.

About their courses-

They put up an array of savoury dishes under many courses. Their courses include Desserts, Snacks, Bengali sweets, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, Thai, Lebanese, sandwich making, salad making, Gravies, Moughlai.and so on. Almost 30+ courses are  available.

Apart from this there are special courses conducted for Ramzan Eid and Bakri Eid.

How is the class conducted?

A few courses like Bengali sweets, Thai, Italian, etc have around 4-5 dishes under them. Thus these courses are completed in a single turn.

Other courses like Chinese, Mexican, Moughlai, etc have around 12-25 dishes under them. These courses are conducted in 3-6 turns, depending on the number of dishes, with each turn having a minimum of 4 recipes.

Cost of each course-

The cost of each course is very reasonable. The cost depends upon the number of turns and the number of dishes under each course.

Strength of the class-

Number of students attending the class is not fixed. It depends on the course how new or old it is? As soon as there is a group formed for a particular course that course is conducted.

Taste of the dishes-

Each and every dish, is made with a perfect blend of spices. The combination of the pastes, sauces, spices etc used in the dishes, make it taste delicious!

Each and every ingredient that she uses to cook her dishes, during the class, is easily available in the market or we can buy them from her as well.

So there is no chance of complaining that the food tastes different when she cooks at class and when we cook at home.

Conclusion->

A perfect class for people who like to cook and want to learn more varieties and new variations. A perfect class for people who do not know anything about cooking and who want to start it. A perfect class which can help you earn a huge space in someone's heart via their stomachs.

I have been going to this class since a long time and have completed most of the courses that are available. I was never disappointed by any course that I have learnt till date. And I am sure its not going to happen even in the future.

Afer reading this review here, Shaheen Mam, I wish I am getting 50% off on all the next courses that I am doing at class!;)

Thanks for reading!
