Everyone knows food is universal and for Malaysia, it is the core of our culture! Learn how to cook an authentic South East Asian Dish with Chef Alou's Cooking and Market Tour.
Chef Alou will take you to a local Penang market to experience the local atmosphere and learn about the various food and tastes unique to Penang. She will also bring you to her favourite Chee Cheong Fun stall for breakfast.
You will then return with Alou to her private kitchen and receive a tailor-made cooking class, suitable for everyone of all ages. What's special about Alou's cooking class is that the menu is different each day of the week ranging from Laksa to Char Kway Teow, so everyone experiences something different!
For Alou, these classes are more than "a class" but a place to meet new people, share experiences and stories, and introduce the community to engage with Penang culture. She believes that that "It's your kitchen, so do as you please!". As long as you like it and is happy, she's happy!
