Learn pancit, lumpia, and turon with local teacher Chyl in a small Makati cooking class filled with Filipino food and culture.
“Chyl was the best instructor! We learned to make bananas fried and wrapped, vegetable spring rolls and a stir fry. We had so much fun! I will definitely try to make these recipes at home. Because it was only a two hour activity I think it might be good for families. I went with my brother. When they say it is a heavy snack, it is really two meals! You will have trouble eating all of it. 😃”

“We throughly enjoyed our tour with Jeric. He encouraged us to try bites out of our comfort zone and explained many of the street foods of Manila…. Some of the foods surprised us but we passed on the balut!! It was a fun night which ended with a great view of Manila from the 35th floor of a hotel. Jeric also took many photos to remind us of our tastings. Highly recommend tour!”
