About me
Mrs.Ashwini vaidya, a culinary expert started Ruchira cooking classes at Thane and now have shifted to pune and is conducting classes as PAKSAMPADA.
Born & brought up in Kolhapur a cultural place of Maharashtra and well known for its own culture & cuisine, Ashwini during her stay at various places in India and outside India have tried to capture the intricacies of the cuisine from Various regions, from local community members and professional chefs. Always receptive to new ideas and innovative by nature ashwini had developed blend of courses from typical and traditional Indian style to authentic continental and chinese type of cuisine. She was invited to deliver talks on all India Radio and also to perform on regional marathi tv channels. She has judged the recipes contests conducted by Mahila Mandals and writes articles on cooking in reginal newspapers.
Over a period of time she has developed new courses and the course contents have been continuously modified and updated to the tastes of all sections including housewives, working women, students, newly wedded as well as retired ladies. The feedback she receives helps her to work on new courses and receipes and today the number of courses stands at 90 while there are many new batches waiting to be introduced which are only done once exact measurements & diligent screening of tasting is done. This has resulted in so many requests coming in either to repeat a existing course or to introduce a new one as per the convenience of both housewives or working ladies and sometimes at a certain period of year.To cater to this request and without changing a declared schedule a batch of EXISTING course can be taken if minimum 10 ladies confirm their attendance by e-mail,telephone or add a comment in the visitors book kept in the class. This request can be considered while scheduling the upcoming schedule or a new date can be added to the existing one but without changing the ALREADY DECLARED ONE. Booking will be treated as confirmed only against full payment.
