Overview

I am Singaporean Chinese Hokkien Peranakan in my 40s and a chef turned cooking teacher since 2018. Passionate about Peranakan and Italian cuisine. Apart from AirBnb, i teach culinary (academic and professionally) in Singapore schools, both mainstream and special needs.

What Can You Expect?

Discover the joys of Peranakan cooking in rich, bold flavours and learn about the local herbs and spices central to the cuisine. Take delight in preparing two authentic dishes from scratch: Assam Fishhead and Ayam Pongteh (chicken stew with fermented soybean). End the workshop with a homey lunch - a great opportunity to take mouthwatering photos and share experiences and stories.

Apart from the cooking, guests will join me to the local market to purchase all the ingredients need for the workshop. In this market tour, guests (specially tourist) will have the chance to experience the local heartland and not your usual tourist attraction spots.

Take NOTE, this workshop will require at least 2 people to start.

    Never got to go to this class. The operator wanted to change the day of the class, which I agreed to. I asked for the time and address of the class and was told it would be at 9:00 AM, but given no address. I asked two more times and was given some confusing information, but no address. So three tries to get an address, no success, and now I'm sure I'm going to have to spend hours on the computer trying to get my money back.

    Wei was very welcoming and a great teacher. We cooked three recipes together, and he made sure we knew what we were doing. He also gave a great history of peranakan cooking and the history behind it. Would definitely recommend for an authentic cooking experience.

    Wonderful time learning about the Peranakan food culture and how to cook these yummy dishes with the guidance of cooking teacher Wei Qiang. Very informative class and I like it for being able to be so hands on throughout the whole session. Worth the experience, love the welcome drink prepare by Wei Qiang too.
