Penang HomeCooks guests comes from many countries. Learning our Asian style of cutting, preparation and cooking opens a new world to them.

Some were busy taking notes as we shared tips, techniques how to whipped up 4 to 6 dishes within 3 to 4 hours.

Indeed watching some first timers asking many questions is not easy for Penang HomeCooks guests. Thinking how to give an intelligent reply to gourmet cooks can be quite a tease. They are the customers and you know customers is always right.

I guess it is easier to share with you in photos what they have cooked and eating. Some of their reviews touched my heart and makes me feel it is my responsibility to share our dying Nyonya dishes.
