Cooking school delight - I loved Sara, who was our teacher for the day. It was a hands-on class — after her demonstration, we each went back to our cooking stations to have a go ourselves. She was always there to help when needed, and she explained the foods we were making along with a brief history of the cooking school.
They even made a plant based version for myself and husband.

Amazing! - This place is amazing! My sister and I took 4 courses and it was hands down the highlight of our trip! Sobna and the other instructors were so knowledgeable about the recipes and culture, and a wealth of information on things to do and eat in Singapore.

Great Class for the Whole Family - We had a great experience learning from the ladies. We particularly enjoyed learning about the classic dishes and appreciated that they adjusted quickly for our daughter with a seafood allergy. We have taken cooking classes as a family in a variety of places around the world and this was among the best.
