Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had such a great time during this cooking class. Ruth and her husband are first at all very welcoming, so we just felt like home. The guidance in the cooking class was great and the food delicious! I can really recommend!"
"Our cooking class with Ruth was truly enriching. We were warmly welcomed into her home by Ruth and her husband, which immediately made us feel at ease. To help us settle in, we were offered some special snacks to try, which was a lovely touch. We then cooked five absolutely delicious dishes together. Ruth guided us confidently through each step, explaining everything clearly and patiently. Throughout the entire experience, we felt genuinely welcome in their home. Sharing the meal afterwards felt like dining with family rather than taking part in a class. After the experience, Ruth kindly sent us photos and the recipes, which gives us a wonderful memory of the afternoon and allows us to recreate the dishes at home. We can highly recommend this experience."
"i had a great time with Ruth and her husband - cooking, chatting, sharing the meal we‘ve prepared and learning abour each others culture. I would recommend booking the class 100%. (: "
"My wife and I booked an Indian cooking class with Ruth, and it was fantastic! We didn’t just learn how to make our favorite Paneer Makhani, we also got to try our hand at other delicious Indian veggie dishes. What made the experience so special was the conversation with Ruth, so we could have a glimpse into local life and Indian culture. This is the insight you’d never get from a guidebook. We’re so glad we took this class and had the chance to meet Ruth. And the 3 hours flew by in a flash! If you do join the class, I'd also recommend taking a stroll to the nearby Torana Gate and Little India which just a 15-minute walk away. You’ll love it :)"
"We really enjoyed the cooking class with Ruth! She showed us some great recipes and we are really looking forward to cooking these dishes at home. Ruth is a very good teacher and an authentic personality. We learnt a lot from her and also got insights into Indian and Malaysian culture. We liked that very much! Dear Ruth, thank you so much for everything. We are very happy to have got to know you! Best wishes, Dastin & Jessica"
"We definitely recommend learning to cook with Ruth. Communication before the class was excellent so we knew what to expect and all of the recipes were tailored to our dietary preferences. During the lesson, we learnt a lot about the culture and history behind the food and Indian culture in Malaysia, as well as how to cook the dishes. Ruth was kind, welcoming, and friendly and even offered for us to message her with questions we might have about where to eat or what to see during the rest of our stay."
"It was such a nice experience cooking with Ruth. we learned so much about all the ingredients and health benefits the food gives you. we also learned so much about food and culture and I can totally recommend it to everyone who like cooking."
"Ruth was so friendly and so easy to talk to. Ruth had all the ingredients prepared and she taught us how to cook a delicious Indian meal! She worked with us to create a menu that we would like and we couldn't be happier!"
"Ruth and Nehru were the perfect hosts. Ruth provided us with a wonderful menu of Mangalorean food. Ingredients were fresh and very tasty. Rice, salad, a lovely chicken dish, and a taste of delicious street food for snacking on. The dessert was made with fresh mango. Ruth even grows some of her own herbs for the meal and makes her own pickled mango and chutney. We had a very informative and fun cooking session, learning what herbs and spices are used, with recipes to try at home."
"Ruth is incredibly patient and knowledgeable about her craft. She prepared in advance, shared information in short notice, answered all our questions, and spent ample time with us. We are excited to recreate the local Malay dishes back home - including how to find local ingredients! After a lot of travel, this was the best experience we could ask for. It really felt like home and we appreciate all of Ruth’s hard work and passion."
