Must do authentic Filipino food experience!

5.00Thank you Chyl for your warm welcome and great teaching. I was born in the USA to Filipinos, so I ate as a Filipino but never learned how to cook even the Filipino basics. I only had to make top grades in school (IYKYK)! Now my mixed heritage daughters, American husband, and I have the memory of learning to cook together and these delicious easy to recreate at home recipes. I’m so glad I chose this outdoor cooking class (lumpia gulay, pancit bihon, and 3 types of turon) instead of a typical city food tour. The cooking class worked well following a morning visit to the Ayala Museum which was only an 8 minute walk away in a very safe neighborhood via a beautifully painted underground boulevard crossing!
Great experience

5.00This cooking experience was amazing! I try to make it a tradition to book a cooking class in every country I travel to and this one has to be top 5 for sure. Our host Chyl was very kind and welcoming for this class and she made sure we knew exactly how to perform each step of the dish we were preparing. The food was amazing, the host was fantastic, 10/10 would recommend!
