Insightful cooking class at the beach

Griffin_T, Mar 2026

Phillip And Nischen were amazing hosts. They showed us how to make sinigang, chicken adobo, lumpia, ginataan and halo-halo. They also gave us a great deal if insight into the local area! Incredibly friendly and insightful fellas!

Highly Recommend!!

★★★★★ I had an incredible experience at this Filipino cooking class! Nescian and Phillip were absolutely amazing instructors. They were patient, welcoming, and took the time to answer all of my questions while explaining the traditions and techniques behind each dish. They made the entire class fun and exciting, and their passion for Filipino cuisine really came through in the way they taught. Everything was hands-on and easy to follow, and the food we made together was absolutely delicious. If you're visiting Cebu or Lapu-Lapu and want to learn authentic Filipino cooking in a relaxed, enjoyable setting, I highly recommend this class. It was one of the highlights of my trip!

Outstanding Cebu Cooking Class Experience!

Tivolee_S, Feb 2026

We had the most amazing time at the Cebu Traditional Cooking Class at Beach Park Hadsan booked through Viator. Our instructors, Necian and Philip, were fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and so passionate about Filipino cuisine. They made the whole experience fun, relaxed, and easy to follow, even for beginners. The food was absolutely incredible. We learned how to cook authentic dishes including adobo, spring rolls, fresh fish, vegetables, and halo-halo — and everything tasted delicious. We left completely full and so impressed with how flavourful and fresh everything was. If you’re in Cebu / Mactan and want a hands-on cultural experience (and seriously good food), I highly recommend this class. One of the highlights of our trip!
