Tasty Singapore Fun!
It was a really fun way to spend the morning, learning more about Singapore culture and making some very tasty food. I am looking forward to receiving the recipes so I can practice making again at home!

Fantastic Cultural Experience
We enjoyed our previous trip here so much that we just have to come back again. We were fortunate to get Jenn as our instructor again. We had a fun time cooking nasi briyani and masala. We will definitely come back again the next time we are in the area.

Hera, our cooking instructor was very kind and friendly. We‘ve learned a lot! At the end we received a really nice framed photo of us which was made during the workshop. Now we have a physical memory for ever. Thank you for the great experience!

Experienced instructors, easy recipes
Had great fun with Jenn and Irene as they instructed us in making chicken curry, roti jala, and ondeh ondeh. Easy to follow and very tasty. Can’t wait to make these again at home.
