Private Market Visit and Cooking Class With A Professional Chef

Posted By : vegetablemasala
My daughter booked us in for the Bao Bun Class.
Great hands on experience for something that we wanted to learn / do together.
The class instructor Chef Loreta Quitoles was very helpful and gave us a number of tips while we went through the recipes.
A great experience for foodies.
Thank you to all the Team.

Our chef was good for the market tour, and quite knowledgeable about the history of the area/market. (He arrived fairly late, but did let us know ahead of time.) The actual class was about a 10-minute drive away, in a very modern building on kind of a corporate campus. It was a long-ish wait for the class to start, as the air-conditioning was not working. When we finally started, it was a little less hands-on than we had hoped, and at times it seemed like we were apprenticing with a chef (who was kind of barking orders at us) rather than being students doing this for fun. This was a private class for two people, so it wasn't like he was off helping other students. The food was delicious although way too much for two people (we made chicken rice, which requires cooking a whole chicken).

We started with the market tour at Tiong Bahru Market.
Ryan provided us with lots of interesting background information: the history of the area, the market, the products on offer and the variety of hawker stalls.
Afterwards we took a taxi to the cooking school. It is perfectly furnished so that we could start cooking right away.
Ryan is an absolutely competent cooking professional, so we were able to benefit a lot.
Enjoying the three-course meal was the perfect end to this great event.

I recently attended your baking class, and while I appreciate the opportunity to learn from a professional, I feel that the class did not live up to my expectations. As a student, I believe that learning is a two-way journey, and I am not here just to watch what the coach does and replicate it exactly.
I came to your class with the intention of learning new techniques, gaining a deeper understanding of the baking process, and exploring my creativity in the kitchen. However, I felt that the lack of explanation and detailed instructions during the class prevented me from achieving these goals.
As a student, I believe that it's essential to have a clear understanding of why certain techniques are used and how different ingredients work together to create the final product. I came to your class hoping to gain this kind of knowledge, but unfortunately, I felt like I was simply copying what you were doing without truly understanding the techniques involved.
I want to emphasize that my goal in attending your class was not simply to replicate what I could find on YouTube or in a recipe book. Rather, I came to your class with the hope of gaining a deeper understanding of the baking process and developing my own skills and creativity in the kitchen.
I want to emphasize the importance of time in the learning process. As a student, I understand that everyone's time is precious, and we all have busy schedules that make it difficult to commit to lengthy learning experiences.
When I decided to attend your baking class, I made a conscious decision to invest my time and resources into this experience, with the expectation that it would be a valuable and worthwhile use of my time. However, I found that the lack of detailed explanations and instructions during the class prevented me from maximizing my learning experience.
As a result, I feel that my time and resources were not used effectively.

We booked our cooking sessions 3 days before the date of the class and everyone from Palate Sensations was very lovely! They have accommodated us and were very flexible on the class dates and times, highly recommended to enjoy with friends! We were given the recipe of the yummy Vietnamese cuisines we cooked and we get to eat and also take home the food we cooked! Calista was lovely in accommodating me and my friend Vivian. Chef Lynette was amazing and fun, she is indeed a great chef! Very inspiring and made us feel comfortable showing us the works and giving us tips and tricks in cooking along the way. I will definitely refer you to all my friends as I had a great experience! I am looking forward for our next class with you! Cheers from Italy! - April

The lessons were a bit pricey but the kitchen, ingredients, and instructors were good which made the fee worthwhile.

I attended the advanced sushi course and it was my first time at Palate Sensations. I can honestly say I have never had a better cooking experience than with Chef Amelia!! I learned not only how to make sushi, but also learned various thing about the culture around it ect. She even gave us a recipe of a sauce that was not in the curriculum and told us where we could be the utensils to cook the things at home. The ingredients were A+ and very fresh.The class was very hands on and everything was very well explained by Chef Amelia. The venue was extremely clean, the staff friendly and the event was well organized. I can recommend this class to everyone!!

Thank you so much for this great experience!!

Good experience, however there were only 2 participants, so lacked some atmosphere.
