The 7 Best Cooking Classes in Kuala Lumpur

Rendang that took three hours, a sambal you can repeat at home, roti canai you almost certainly cannot. These 7 are priced and honest about how much you cook versus watch, and which start at a wet market.

LaZat Malaysian Cooking Class

1.LaZat Malaysian Cooking Class

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 87 reviews · from $130Our pick

Cook Malaysian classics, tour a Kuala Lumpur wet market, and eat your own three-course meal in a small, hands-on LaZat class.

“This was great! I wanted to learn to cook Rendang. Usually the day we went is not the day for that menu but LaZat accommodated us. Excellent teacher, helper who also gave us insight into culture. We have been to other cooking schools: this was costlier, but was our very small group (3) and personal instruction.”

Market Visit & Private Hands-on Cooking Class at Daun Senja

4.Market Visit & Private Hands-on Cooking Class at Daun Senja

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 51 reviews · from $130

Shop a Kuala Lumpur wet market, enjoy local breakfast, and cook a three-course Malaysian meal in a private home class.

“We can only recommend this tour! It's not just a cooking class, but also a cultural experience! We had a great time, learned a lot about authentic malaysian food and ingredients. The market visit really was unique and Patricia & Kingston are very welcoming and openhearted hosts. The recepies we cooked were very tasty and quite different from the the malaysian food we've had in restaurants. It was probably the best we've eaten in the three weeks we were in Malaysia. Also the recepies did not feature many exotic ingredients, that we couldn't buy in Switzerland. So we think we will have a good chance at replicating it at home.…”

5.Malaysian Hands-On Cooking Class : Masala Medley

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 24 reviews · from $66

Cook four Indian-Malaysian dishes at your own station in Kuala Lumpur, from pakora and chicken curry to Kesari and masala chai.

“Class was supposed to be a three-hour experience. It lasted less than two hours. Prepared only one simple dish, something traditionally eaten daily for any meal. We sautéed some onions and added some seasonings. The instructor prepared the side condiments in advance. Did not learn anything new. I was very disappointed in the experience.”
