Fake cooking classes in Ella.
2 Answers from travellers
A massive tourist trap cooking class usually packs twenty people into a room simply hands you pre chopped vegetables and you just stir a pot for five minutes while the chef does all the actual work.
To find a genuinely authentic hands on class you must look for highly reviewed family run spots like Matey Hut Cooking Class. In these authentic classes you actively grind the spices on traditional stones scrape fresh coconut yourself and individually cook multiple distinct curries entirely from scratch.

People outside stations offer to "help" buy tickets but charge large markups. They may buy cheap third-class tickets and sell as more expensive classes.
