Cook a three-course dinner together at our intimate kitchen studio in the Singapore CBD, guided by a private chef. Halal-friendly, 3 minutes from Tanjong Pagar MRT, from $260 per couple.
Dinner reservations ask very little of either of you: you arrive, order, eat and leave. A cooking date is built differently. You stand side by side for two hours, learn a recipe you can repeat at home, and end the night with a meal that has a story neither of you has told before.
You both leave with a recipe you can cook at home, and the next time one of you makes it, the date comes back.
You know exactly how the sauce came together and what you almost burned. The meal has a story that's yours alone.
Standing shoulder to shoulder beats face-to-face for honest conversation, with a shared task and a natural rhythm.
The format works for a second date, a tenth anniversary, or the night before a proposal.
A guided three-course dinner for two, cooked together with a private chef. Choose your cuisine Italian, French, modern Asian or local Singaporean. Our most popular format and the right start for a first cook together.
Make fresh pasta from scratch kneading, rolling and shaping followed by sauces and a sit-down Italian dinner with tiramisu. Genuinely hands-on, a little messy, impossible to do without laughing.
An elevated date around a milestone: five smaller courses, one chef-prepared, with a candle and your message piped in chocolate on the dessert. Take home a dessert box for breakfast.
A fully private studio for the evening you propose. We plan the menu around her favourites, time the dessert moment, arrange the ring and capture it on camera. We've helped 30+ couples get engaged here.
Classic from $260, Pasta-Making from $280, Anniversary Tasting from $360, Proposal from $480. Includes halal-sourced ingredients, a private chef, drinks, the meal and a recipe card. BYO wine, no corkage.

Three occasions are when most couples book, and we've refined each one over the years.
Arrive at 6A Shenton Way, a 3-minute walk from Tanjong Pagar MRT. Aprons are waiting; welcome mocktail or BYO wine.
Your chef walks through the three courses and techniques. A five-minute briefing, no lecture.
Cook together at one station, side by side. The chef stays close enough to help, far enough to give you space.
Plate your courses together, then the station becomes your dining table. The chef quietly steps away, this part of the evening is yours.
Leave with a recipe card and the leftover dessert. We handle all cleanup.
Real experiences from teams who have cooked, competed and bonded with us.

Yes. We're not a licensed bar, but you're welcome to bring your own wine, beer or champagne with no corkage fee. We provide glasses, an ice bucket and a corkscrew.
No. The chef guides every step and the recipes are designed for first-time home cooks. Some of our best date nights are with couples who can't really cook, there's something fun about being slightly out of your depth together.
Yes, proposals are one of our specialties, we've helped 30+ couples get engaged here. The studio is fully private, we plan the menu and timing around the moment, and can arrange a photographer. WhatsApp us in confidence to discuss.
For Classic and Pasta-Making dates you may share the studio with one or two other couples, each at their own station. Anniversary Tasting and Proposal dates are fully private, and a fully private upgrade is available for any format.
