My partner and I had a brilliant time taking this cooking class. Food Playground are very professional and well-run, and we came away much more knowledgeable. Thanks so much to Annie and the rest of the team for a great experience and top class teaching. We are cooking forward to making nasi lemak at home!

Fantastic cooking class in the heart of Singapore's Chinatown. We cooked a menu of classics including Nasi Lemak - all from scratch. Before we started cooking, we also had a brief crash course on local delicacies and how to order them in hawker centres etc. Even though I have Singaporean heritage and regularly visit, this was really interesting and helpful. Instructor Annie was both very knowledgeable and lively throughout - while being extremely attentive to each participant. The kitchen was very calm and clean. I can't wait to cook these dishes at home and Annie was very helpful in discussing substitutes for hard-to-find ingredients. I think this is a fantastic course to do while visiting Singapore and I am already planning future visits to Food Playground to try out different menus.

Anne and Helen are so much fun. We had an amazing time. We learned so much about Singapore food and culture. The names of the dishes and what they mean.

Our instructor, Annie, was a joy as she shared both her knowledge and her heart for Singaporean cooking. She was encouraging as we went along. Another fun feature was meeting people from other places. In our case, we had a fellow American couple, a lady from the Netherlands, another from Perth, Australia and one local Singaporean woman. It was fun to share stories. Finally, the food itself was excellent, especially the chicken curry and roti jala
