Traditional Filipino Food Feast with a Lola - We were served satisfying, delicious Filipino food like fritters, soup (misua) (which is my favorite since childhood days) . I also liked the main dishes, especially the special beef steak topped with white sweet onions. The rice cake topped with coconut syrup made a great ending to an intimate family meal in a special home environment. I really felt like I met some long lost, very generous relatives who invited me in off the street.

Thank you so much for an incredible cooking experience. - The entire experience was incredible and definitely would do it again. My wife and I loved it and Chyl was incredible and made it such an enjoyable 'chilled' time.

Wonderful! - This was a fantastic cooking class! Chyl was very friendly and helpful, and showed us how to make some lovely dishes which we'll definitely try out at home! Bonus points for the two very lovely kitties who kept us company while we cooked.

Wonderful experience - It was a wonderful experience. Even though we were quite late, they made sure we were there with a smile. It was my first Filipino cooking class and it was delicious. I'm grateful for the cooking teacher's hospitality and smile.

Great fun!! - I had a great time cooking with Chyl today during a very hot afternoon in Manila.
She (patiently) guided me through making 3 dishes:
1) Pancit Bihon
2) Turon (3 ways; classic, jackfruit and Nutella)
3) Lumpiang Gulay
Everything is provided so you just need to turn up and get cutting and cooking.
After cooking you get to eat your creations - but fair warning there’s a lot so I had to take away the extra !
In summary, great food, great company and great value for money
Thank you Chyl
