Cooking Classes

Handicraft Classes

Peranakan food is probably the most diverse and distinctive of all local cuisines. A marriage of cooking styles, Nyonya cuisines combine the preparation techniques of both traditional Chinese and Malay cooking.

Our Executive Chef - Helen Lim, is a frequent contributor of recipes to our local Chinese press and to other food and lifestyle magazines.

Mdm Lim has also been invited overseas to places such as Taiwan to promote our culture and heritage through her culinary skills. You may find out more about our events from "Our Journey" page.

Note:

• We do conduct private or group classes.
• The cooked dishes will be available for you to bring back home to share with your family members or friends. Please let me save the environment by bringing your own containers.
• The cost for us to conduct classes varies on the type of dishes that we will teach. However, you may also suggest to us to teach a particular dish of your interest.

Live Demonstrations

The Peranakan culture is one that is unique to South East Asia. In Singapore the culture is rooted in our daily lives that we hardly take notice of them.

If you are interested to find out more about our culture and heritage, please enquire about our in-house guided tour where we conduct cultural talks, live demonstrations and food sampling at an affordable rate of only SGD$5.50 per person.

• 1 x Mini Nyonya Chang
• 1 x Mini Otah-otah

Promoting our culture would not be possible if we do not have the ability to be mobile.

With experience conducting various cultural talks with the National Library Board and Community Clubs, Fashion classes with LASALLE students and overseas showcases (Food demonstration / Fashion presentation), we at Kim Choo's are committed to present the best of what the culture has to offer.
