Rathika's Malaysian Cooking Class with Wet Market Tour

would recommend

An absolute must-do! The day started with a tasty local breakfast and a great tour of the second-oldest market before heading into the kitchen. Rathika is a great teacher, and also incredibly thoughtful. We mentioned my friend had an upset stomach and she went out of her way to make a special soothing tea, showing just how attentive she is to her guests. Amazing food, rich history, and top-tier hospitality!

Penang Food Tour - Georgetown

Fantastic local food tour guide, Kevin.

Kevin collected us from our hotel five minutes early! Then drove us to small places which we would have never found. Each stop had different local foods and drinks, all of which Kevin explained to us. As well as explaining some of the local and food history. Kevin was a local who had been a chef in Penang, so his knowledge and curtesy were excellent. The tour is highly recommended.
