Review Body: Yoo sun was tremendously friendly, accommodating, and authentic in her sharing. She was happy to answer any and all questions, and we googled things none of us knew together. The experience from tasting to creation of the maekgoli is super seamless and organised, and she even prepared instructions on how to take care of the items you bring home. She was super patient which everything and also helped me find some Korean foods I had been hunting for. Definitely go if you want not just to make maekgoli, but learn more about Korean drinking culture and what real soju is

Review Body: This experience was incredible!!! Yoonsun is the best! She's so friendly and personable. She taught us to play the Korean drinking game made famous by Bruno Mars and Rosé's song APT. We tried different flavors of Makgeolli and then had loads of fun making our own. I really enjoyed this experience and cannot recommend it enough! It's a very unique must-do in Singapore!

Review Body: It's nice to learn about Korea drinks - soju, makogeoli and culture. Most importantly we learned to make our own makogeoli! A way to celebrate birthday or anniversary. Never say it's boring in Singapore.

Review Body: I think will be more fun with more people. A little expensive for the amount of makgeolli made.. Each person will bring home total of 350ml (divided into 2 bottles) of makgeolli. But interesting experience.

Review Body: Purchased the kimchi cooking class to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and it turned out to be one of the best gifts yet. My sister’s already a great cook, but one thing missing from her repertoire was a solid kimchi banchan — not anymore! We had an amazing time at Oou Cooking. Rachel was a wonderful host and teacher, sharing thoughtful tips and techniques that really brought out the flavour of the kimchi. The session felt more insightful than anything we could have picked up from a recipe online. We each brought home half a cabbage’s worth of freshly made kimchi and got to enjoy some on the side with cabbage okonomiyaki — delicious. Definitely looking forward to coming back for the makgeolli workshop one day!

Review Body: A really nice lady with a great passion (and alot of patience) who is ready to share tips & tricks + best practices + answer questions for beginners! The kimchi workshop is fun and very informative extending insights into korean food culture & history! The class is totally interactive with step by step hands-on guidance + lots of laughters- after the workshop, even as a beginner, I do feel confident to try out (making kimchi) at home. Highly recommended!

Review Body: Chef Yoonsun is professional and lovely. Is not just a cooking workshop, but a wonderful cultural exchange session that both my wife and I love it. Chef Yoonsun, take the extra mile to deco her workshop (home) for a mini celebration. Is our first ever such activity and indeed an unique and unforgettable experience for us. Definitely a great activity for couples and/or friends to eat, play, lov3! Thank You Chef Yoonsun!!!😊

Review Body: I attended the kimchi-making class making today and had such a great time! Rachel prepared all the ingredients in advance, which made everything so smooth and enjoyable. She guided us step by step with clear instructions, and I really appreciated the hands-on experience throughout. It was not only fun but also super rewarding to learn the process properly. Highly recommend it to anyone interested in trying something new!

Review Body: Absolutely delightful experience celebrating my bestie’s birthday with Yoon Sun! She was friendly, warm and she taught us really easy to remember recipes (with awesome cooking tips while sharing about Korean culture and food). We chose to make the classics - Kimchi Pancake & Tofu Stew which turned out super yummy. Would definitely recommend for anyone interested in Korean cooking! :)
