A great cooking experience

Joseph_C, Feb 2024

The Chef provides history and details about the ingredients, and I recommend including the trip to the market as part of the experience. I felt welcomed in her kitchen. I learned a lot about Filipino dishes and how to prepare them, and the details of the various oils, seasonings, and other ingredients that bring out the best flavor were explained to me. Eating the dishes was just as fun as helping and watching them come together. This is a great way to experience Filipino cuisine and meet a local. Chef truly represents the beautiful hospitality Filipinos are known for.

Fantastic experience, better than all the restaurants I went to here and healthier to boot.

I met Cinty at her gorgeous condo, where we introduced ourselves and she got to know me as a cook. After that she tailored the menu she planned to me and took me to the wet and dry market. She went around explaining the different ingredients and showed me how the locals typically shop for food. Since I hadn't eaten breakfast she showed me some of the different snack foods while we went around buying the ingredients for the dishes we would make. After that we went back to her condo where she walked me through cooking all the different meals. I requested healthy foods, and boy did she deliver. All the dishes she walked me through cooking were both nutritious and delicious. Out of all the food I tried in the Philippines hers was easily the best. If I can go home and make the dishes half as well as she showed me, it will still be fantastic. Do yourself a favor and book this trip. It really is something special not to miss out on while you're here. 10/10 experience, would do again. I'm missing her cooking already.
