    Join us for a hands-on traditional cooking class in the heart of Penampang, where you’ll learn to prepare authentic Kadazandusun dishes passed down through generations.

You’ll learn about traditional ingredients and cooking methods before diving into the preparation of iconic Sabahan dishes such as Linopot (rice wrapped in leaf), Hinava (fresh fish salad), Pinasakan Sada (braised fish with takob-akob), and more.

    Whether you’re a food lover, a curious traveler, or someone looking for a unique cultural activity in Sabah, this class offers a genuine taste of local life. After cooking, sit down together and enjoy the meal you’ve prepared — the Sabahan way.
