"Attending Sara's New Malaysian Kitchen has helped me to expand my menu and knowledge of authentic Malaysian food for my Private Dining Restaurant here in the Philippines.
 
Her Hainanese Chicken and Rice with the Condiments is one of the favorite dishes on my menu. The classes I took with Sara were first class and very well conducted."

GETTING HERE

We are just 20 minutes train ride away from the city centre (Bukit Bintang MRT Station). Take a train to Taman Connaught MRT Station and exit at Gate C. We can get you from there upon request.

For convenience, take a GRAB taxi (like UBER) directly to the school (recommended). It's about 20 minutes ride from the city centre and costs about RM 20 (USD 5). Used widely by local Malaysians, it's safe and reliable.

A nearby hotel which is connected to the train station, Sunway Velocity Hotel, is only 15 minutes taxi (USD 3) / train ride (USD 0.60) away.
