We had a wonderful afternoon cooking with Rekha in her home. She taught us the basics of cooking with Indian spice and herbs and we learnt about the types of Ayurvedic cooking and the preferred style of Sattvic cooking. We found this to be eye opening and it will surely benefit us ordering meals at restaurants in the future and making our own food. In the class we prepared and enjoyed enjoyed Chai, aloo Gobi and paneer curries, briyani and raita that we prepared with fresh ingredients. The food was some of the best we have had on our entire trip. We finished off with a delicious saffron lassi! Highly recommend this experience.

Mohanlal Verhomal Spices (MV SPICES)

Mohanlal Verhomal was the legend of spices in JOdhpur city of Rajasthan. He was the pioneer of the spices. He was the first person to introduce and sell spices to the tourists coming from all over the world. His aim was to provide the best quality and best blends of spices to the foreign tourists. He made JOdhpur city (dry) popular for the spices with his mixing s and best quality spices and service. MV Spices is the old and original spices-seller of the city with great quality and service to the tourist. He and his spices are recommended by all the travel guide books.Unfortunately, Mr.Mohanlal Verhomal expired in 2004, leaving behind his family of seven daughters and his wife. Since they are women, but still they took step against the soceity to continue with the business in this men-dominating society of India.After his death, there are lots of duplicate shops around the market, they all have similar name, as they have-MV SPICES.All the other spices shops start their name with "M"-to confuse tourists. When you will visit the store you will find one of the daughter of Mr.Mohanlal Verhomal to explain you about the spices, teas and saffron. Meanwhile you can have a cup chai with them.More details you will find when you will visit the store.

Being in MV Spices was an exquisite perfumed experience with a group pf 25 Mexican people. Neelam knowledge about her products and every Indian spice was remarkable, and the warmth and kindness of her staff was a memorable experience. A true host in her magical paradise... Now in Mexico, every day I spice up my dishes with pepper, Garam Masala, Curries and our favorite, Chai Masala Mix that is one of the most delicious and freshest I have tasted in my life. A "MUST" if you go to Jodhpur! My gratitude beautiful Neelam for adding so much flavor to my cooking through your spices!! A true pleasure meeting you and your mother! Mafalda

Lalji was the best place to shop for an array of beautiful and reasonably priced items during our travels in Rajasthan. Wish we were able to buy more! (Our brass vase and chopati bowl look beautiful back home, but regret not buying the miniature). The good people working don't push anything from their mind-blowing selection on you. Much better than any bazaar we visited. Wholeheartedly recommend and can't wait to visit again one day!
