Skip the same old restaurant table. Throw a hands-on cooking or baking birthday party your friends will actually remember, in a private studio in central Singapore, with a chef, all ingredients sorted and a dining area to cut your cake.
The default birthday venue in Singapore is a restaurant, same noise, same menu, same two-hour seating window, and by the time the cake comes out half the table is on their phones. A cooking birthday flips that: instead of waiting for food, your group makes the food, and the cake-cutting actually feels earned.
Instead of waiting for the kitchen, your group cooks the meal, with a chef handling technique while you handle the fun.
Instead of small talk there's something to do together, by the time you sit down everyone has a story from the last 90 minutes.
Cake-cutting happens in our dining area with feature-wall lighting, a real moment rather than an afterthought.
Your group splits across cooking stations and prepares a three-course meal together, guided by a chef. Best for foodies, mixed friend groups and milestone birthdays (21st, 30th, 40th, 50th).
Turn a 21st or milestone birthday into a friendly cook-off. Teams compete to plate the best dish, our chef judges and the birthday star presents medals. Loud, photogenic and unforgettable.
The birthday person decorates their own cake, and so does everyone else. We provide the baked bases, buttercream, fondant, edible glitter and piping bags. You bring the friends and the playlist.
Includes the full private venue, chef, all ingredients, equipment and the dining area, no separate venue rental fee. Bring your own cake at no extra charge, or order one through our partner bakeries.
