We booked a cooking class with Catherina and were allowed to stay at her home. The choice of dishes was really great and varied, with us preparing a main course and a dessert under guidance ourselves, while the starter and other main courses were prepared by Catherina. We got an interesting insight into Nyonya cuisine, enjoyed very delicious food and got to know a warm and super nice hostess. Highly recommended!
Catherine is the most wonderful chef and teacher and makes you feel so welcome in her home. She is so knowledgeable about Malaysian food and culture and we thought so enriched by this experience she was generous with her time her knowledge and the delicious food that she served to us. My only suggestion would be is arrive very very, very hungry because the food is delicious and plentiful. This is just the best experience that any visitor to Malacca could expect and we are so grateful to Katherine and the attention she gave me and my family I must do for Malacca. Thank you. Wendy, Luke, and Hannah.
