What to expect

Discover the rich flavors and traditions of Peranakan cuisine in a private hands-on cooking class with Colin in Singapore. Learn to prepare traditional Peranakan dishes while discovering the unique blend of Chinese, Malay, and Southeast Asian influences behind this distinctive cuisine, then sit down to enjoy the meal you have prepared together.

Colin (or his equally passionate colleague when Colin is not available) hosts this experience in a cooking studio located inside a bicycle tour shop. During your 1.5 hour hands-on Singapore cooking class, learn to make 2-3 Singaporean dishes. You can expect a hands-on experience with your host demonstrating some of the steps before giving you a chance to try everything yourself. A few dishes that you might cook together are Hainanese chicken rice, ngoh hiang (minced meat and vegetables and wrapped in bean curd) and Nyonya kueh dadar, a pandan flavored crepe with freshly grated coconut.

Please NOTE the menu might vary. If you are keen to try a particular dish, for example, Nyonya Laksa, please include your request in the booking form - otherwise, your host will choose a menu based on seasonal ingredients available.
