Cooking classes
Hands-on Peranakan cooking classes in Penang
A half-day class in George Town with award-winning chef Nyonya Su Pei. We start at the market, cook from scratch, and sit down to lunch.
What the morning looks like
Classes usually run from about 9 in the morning until 2 in the afternoon. Seats are limited — often fewer than eight — so everyone has room at the counter.
1
Meet at the market
We begin at Chowrasta Market. Nyonya Su Pei shows you the herbs, fish, and spices you will cook with — and why they matter.
2
Cook together, slowly
In a clean, small kitchen you grind rempah, wrap, stew, and fry. Everything is from scratch. Questions are welcome.
3
Sit down to lunch
You eat what you made. Printed English recipes come home with you, so the dishes can live in your kitchen too.
Included
Everything you need for the day
- Guided walk through Chowrasta Market
- Hands-on cooking of three or four dishes
- Rempah and techniques explained slowly
- Lunch of the food you cooked
