Take delight in preparing two authentic dishes from scratch: Assam Fishhead and Ayam Pongteh (chicken stew with fermented soybean).

1.00Never got to go to this class. The operator wanted to change the day of the class, which I agreed to. I asked for the time and address of the class and was told it would be at 9:00 AM, but given no address. I asked two more times and was given some confusing information, but no address. So three tries to get an address, no success, and now I'm sure I'm going to have to spend hours on the computer trying to get my money back.
Great Experience, welcoming and knowledgeable chef!

5.00Wei was very welcoming and a great teacher. We cooked three recipes together, and he made sure we knew what we were doing. He also gave a great history of peranakan cooking and the history behind it. Would definitely recommend for an authentic cooking experience.

5.00Wonderful time learning about the Peranakan food culture and how to cook these yummy dishes with the guidance of cooking teacher Wei Qiang. Very informative class and I like it for being able to be so hands on throughout the whole session. Worth the experience, love the welcome drink prepare by Wei Qiang too.
