Fantastic kid-friendly experience and delicious - My kids and I had a fantastic experience at Food Playground! Despite being late due to an error in double booking, they were super gracious and able to accommodate us.
It was kid-friendly, entertaining, and delicious. We demolished the meal at the end. We made spring rolls, laksa, and hounquoy (dessert). Hera, our instructor, also provided us with a list of grocery stores where we could find ingredients and substitutes. She was fantastic! I would highly recommend it.
