Fantastic experience

​We absolutely loved this cooking experience. We learned how to make noodles from scratch, ramen and jammy eggs and the best part was getting to eat them too. Ping was very welcoming. Highly recommend this class to anyone!

Our experience at The Secret Chilli Club’s ramen class was exactly what we needed after a busy week; fun, delicious, and surprisingly relaxing. The calm, welcoming atmosphere instantly puts you at ease.

Ping was incredibly welcoming, and it was so interesting to learn from everything she shared with us. The hands on ramen making was enjoyable and easy to follow, and the whole vibe of the class felt like a little reset button for the mind.

Great ramen, great vibes, and a perfect way to unwind while learning something new. Highly recommend! 🍜✨

We had such a wonderful private dining experience with Chef Ping! The evening started with a warm welcome in a beautiful setting — the balcony, sea views and her super cute dog buddy made it feel so special. Ping is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also such a lovely person, which made learning how to make dumplings both fun and easy to follow. The food itself was absolutely spot on — fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. We left with new skills, full bellies, and big smiles. Already looking forward to returning to learn how to make more of her amazing dishes!
