"Our family of 6 (2 adults, and 4 children ages 12, 11, 8 and 6) thoroughly enjoyed our morning of cooking at Sara's home kitchen in KL. We were looking for a fun learning experience for our kids and a chance to understand more about Malaysian ingredients. We got all of that and more. Sara was extremely patient with each of our children and included them in all activities. My kids left with big plans to cook many of the recipes at home - which we are confident we will be able to do thanks to the cute recipe book Sara provided and all of the additional tips we received. Thank you, Sara!"

"I’ve taken a range of cooking classes from professional to tourist, and this was one of the more authentic experiences I’ve had. Other cooking classes cart you around with a huge group of tourists, never giving you personal attention or the time to ask questions.

Sara keeps the classes small, teaches you step-by-step, and gives you a peek into Malaysian life when you visit her local market, tour her garden, or cook in the kitchen of her family home.

4worldlovers: Chef Jean graduated from Université Toulouse le Mirail and have years of experience in teaching culinary to students varying from primary school age to higher education in forms of physical classes and online classes (Cuisine Boleh).

Other than teaching, Chef Jean provides his expertise in private dining under his company Dalí.

I got into the industry very early as my parents owned a butchery in Toulouse (France). I started to help them very young, at the age of 10. This is how I began to love working with food.

The best part of the job is that you give happiness to people and this is priceless.

The worst part is the long hours, but it’s just a detail when you live what you do.

One of my favourite food and wine pairings (to stay in Southwest France, my home town) ) is undoubtedly a nice BBQ vine branch duck breast with a Graves or a Pomerol. The blood and firm tannins make a very nice pairing in the mouth.

I encounter many fascinating people during my private chef functions, and I have so many stories to tell. During one of my last dinners, I was challenged to custom a special dinner for a food and wine pairing. My customers were so happy that they invited me to join them to try some exceptional wines like a delicious brandy from 1885.

What’s one of the craziest things you’ve seen behind the scenes?

Are you sure you want to know? OK, one day I had a booking for a table of six women. They took my most expensive fine dining menus and had a great night. Actually, it was a group of luxury prostitute friends who just wanted to have a good time. They were super cool and very down to earth. Super classy and nice with the staff!

Another great experience was to have served a Malaysian tenor! We had the privilege to hear him singing acapella in a small room. The walls were literally shaking when he sang!

There are some more stories I cannot tell because it involves VIPs, and I promised confidentiality.

This is the privilege to be a private chef, living extraordinary moments with extraordinary people.

The perfect day off would be a nice bubbly brunch to start the day, followed by sports and activities with my family and a good Netflix to finish the day.

Waking up early. Doing some paperwork, bringing the kids to school, preparing the food orders, driving to do the deliveries, groceries, teaching some virtual cooking classes, taking care of the social networks, planning the activities for the next week, and finally, sleeping late.

4worldlovers: My 9 months here were great and taught me a lot in pastry. different chef has different ways and tips on making something, this helped a lot in giving me the ideas when dealing in the industry outside. Chefs here are very talented and have a lot of experiences.. i would say that APCA is a great fast track for you to learn and push oneself to be a better and more skilful chef before stepping into the f&b life.

The first impression when I visited the academy is the beautiful chocolate art that was displayed during my visits. I cannot stop admiring the impressive skills and technique that were applied to how the chocolate art displays were made. Despite its name, the academy also provides culinary course for 9 months and it is by far the shortest course from basic level to advanced diploma level among all the other culinary schools. During this 9 months course I've learned many techniques and skills as well as the product knowledge and hands-on practical needed to prepare ourselves for the real world. All the chefs in this academy are very helpful and friendly. They will always try to help to improve ourselves. I highly recommend to those who are looking for a short course.

Choosing a good pastry school is never easy. A Professional pastry school is different then an Academic Pastry school.

Where an academic pastry school is more about non relevant theoritical topics, a professsional Pastry school groom you in an apprentice structure, where you spend a good amount of time in the kitchen and get groomed to become a professional Pastry chef.

If you are looking forward to become a pastry chef in Hotel, Restaurants, Pastry shop or want to start your own business

We train students, Teachers, Professioanals and business owners in all form of Pastry, Bakery, Chocolates and confections

Best way is to visit the school, Meet the chefs, Understand the Program and then decide how the school can help you start a great career
