Wonderful experience - Fizah and her husband graciously welcomed us in to their home for this experience. It was very hands on and we learned about Malaysian food, traditions and culture. Fizah showed us how best to prepare each component of the curry laksa dish, answered all questions we had about how to obtain the ingredients back in the US, and even how to freeze the sauce to use for later. She also gave us the recipe for curry laksa and the dessert we made.

Authentic home cooked food and a warm welcome - We had a lovely afternoon with Fiza where we learned to cook curry laksa as our main and kuih gula Melaka for pudding. Fiza made us feel really welcome in her home and taught us interesting things about the ingredients and the Malaysian food culture. She also shared some great recommendations of places to go during our stay. The food was delicious and she kindly sent over the recipes too after. Would really recommend this class to anyone wanting an authentic home cooking class experience and the chance to eat delicious home cooked food in KL.

It was a hands on... - It was a hands on experience which is what we were hoping for. While you dont have your own cooking station, you each have a station to cut and prepare and then the cooking part is shared. Sitting and eating together afterwards we learnt so much about Fizah and Malay culture and food . Fizah is a great teacher and host. The overall experience was totally worth it !

Fizah’s class is probably... - Fizah’s class is probably the best cooking class I’ve been to! Firstly, I’d commend how accommodating she is. I booked my class 3 hours prior, and she was kind enough to accommodate me despite short notice. Secondly, she’s a great teacher! I really learned a lot—not only how to cook, but also about Malaysian culture, customs, and values. Thirdly, her ingredients are fresh! We made the curry paste from scratch. Her recipes also has some personal twists, which makes cooking more exciting! Love the experience overall.

Find another cooking class if you want to lear something - My 3 hour cooking class finished in less than 2 hours. We only prepared one dish. And even then the host had prepared the condiments ahead of time. I was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED that we did not learn more and only cooked a simple one dish meal.
