Fantastic cooking class hosted by Pearly, an enthusiastic, friendly and extremely talented teacher (who also happens to teach internationally renown chefs!!) The whole experience was fantastic; Pearly accommodated my friend and I at the last minute and booked us on to the next day's class. We were picked up from our hostel by Pearly and made our way to the market where we met the other eager cooks. Around the market we learnt about local produce and met the locals. Pearly and her lovely husband, Chandra then took us back to their home to teach us how to cook three very different and delicious traditional Malaysian meals. After cooking, you then sit down as a class to eat, swallowed down with refreshing nutmeg cordial made by Chandra. We would do the whole class again and can't recommend it anymore to anyone who enjoys cooking and tasting local cuisine. Thank you Pearly and Chandra for having us and welcoming us into your home for an unforgettable experience :D

A first of it’s kind in Penang, the school is custom-made with individual purpose-built workstations that allows for a memorable hands-on cooking experience.As classes are limited to 10 persons, chefs are able to provide a personalised approach. Though the menus follow authentic and traditional methods they are taught in such a way that you are able to recreate the delicious dishes at home.
My daughter and I booked a half day cookery course at TSG. Booking online was easy. It was a wonderful experience. The morning started with a tour of the spice terraces in the garden which was really interesting. Our guide, Elaine, was extremely knowledgeable and informative and the setting is just beautiful. Then came the cooking. The cookery school is in its own building, very clean and well equipped. All our ingredients had been laid out beside our places and basically we then spent the morning preparing a three course lunch: the steps were demonstrated by the lovely chef in charge and then we did it for ourselves. There were 6 of us in the class which felt ideal (but the max is 8 so it will never be overcrowded). We had asked in advance to cook vegetarian and this caused no problems at all - recipes were slightly adapted but were absolutely delicious. It was all thoroughly constructive and well organised and, at the end, we all sat round a table in the open air and enjoyed the fruits of our labours. If you enjoy cooking and enjoy exploring different flavours this is a brilliant thing to do in Penang. Tip for getting there: the bus 101 from Georgetown stops right outside TSG.
