5.00Our family had an amazing time at the traditional cooking class in Kota Kinabalu! It was our first cooking class experience and was such a fun and memorable activity for our family. A special thank you to Didie, who was an exceptional host and teacher. She made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived and created such a warm, relaxed, and enjoyable atmosphere. Her instructions were clear and easy to follow, and she shared fascinating insights into Sabahan culture and the stories behind each dish, making the experience so much more meaningful. The class was hands-on, well-organized, and suitable for all ages. The ingredients were fresh, the recipes were authentic, and the food we prepared was absolutely delicious. It felt less like a class and more like being welcomed into a local family’s kitchen. If you’re looking for an authentic cultural experience in Kota Kinabalu, we can’t recommend this enough. Thank you, Didie, for your wonderful hospitality and for giving our family such a memorable experience!

5.00Diddy the host is very friendly and helpful. You can learn to cook using many ingredients unique to Sabah, Malaysia. There are some ingredients that cannot be purchased in my country, but it was a fun experience because I learned local dishes that tourists can't eat easily. After the lesson, you can also get recipes, which is great.
Excellent day out
