5 Stars! We had an amazing personal cooking class with Cinty and would recommend for anyone who is seeking a unique, tailored experience in the heart of Manila. Cinty is a wonderful host and exceptional chef. Her passion for cooking was palpable from the moment we began, and her expertise was evident in every technique. She had a knack for making even the most complex recipes seem approachable and manageable. The personalized nature of the class was also impressive. Rather than sticking to a menu, Cinty took the time to tailor the different parts of the meal to our preferences, down to making adobo two ways and adding a bit of seaweed we happened to walk by at the market because it would pair well with one of the sides. Cinty specializes in plant based recipes, and this is showcased in her preparation of king oyster mushroom sisig. I have vowed to try to recreate this at home! Overall, this personal cooking class exceeded all of our expectations, and was not only a fun and educational experience but also a truly memorable one.

The whole experience was amazing : sourcing the ingredients from the market, the host and the food! Isi exceeded expectations! We asked if we could have wine while we were cooking and eating and she bought quite a selection! While preparing the food, we also did vinegar tasting. Who knew there were so many different vinegars! Isi gave us a great understanding of Filipino food and how it varies regionally. She also shared the culture and life in Manila. We got a better feel for the city with her than we did with a previous city tour. The market was huge and not to be missed ! We highly recommend this cooking class with isi.

Chef Isi showed us such a great time! Our tour was great! The stops were paced well and Chef Isi explained everything very well. It was also great to hear about her family and where she grew up. My mother and I enjoyed the final spot where we ate all the food we collected and spent time with Chef Isi's family. Don't hesitate to book!
