It was a great experience. Everything was very well organised and our teacher Arm was great in guiding us through the recipes.
The cooking session by Fern was well conducted considering the number of dishes the group selected to cook. Overall fun and enriching experience. Quality of food good,
Great cooking class in lovely garden set. Recommanded.
It was fun to learn multiple dishes under clear instructions even for a complete novice to cooking. Greta to have pick up and drop off service

Although it was pretty fast paced, my partner and I enjoyed the food preparation and cooking process. Only gripe is with the marketing portion where we were brought to the local market but all we did was a walk. I think an improvement for this activity would be to cater time for the participants to select and pick their own ingredients from a list. I understand that time may be an issue. A plus is that we were also given a cook book to bring back so that we can attempt to recreate the dishes back at home.
