Basically, Cookyn Inc is an event venue cum cooking school. The organise and customise cooking events for the purpose of team building, celebration etc and aim to bring fun into cooking. It is a cosy shophouse located in Rangoon Road. Despite the "old-looking" surroundings, the interior is decorated with a simple yet clean and contemporary style.
After the various thank you speeches to my dad were delivered, the hosts got us to put on the cookyn inc aprons and chefs hats(paper ones) which we wrote our names on and got to take home. I shall not spoil it for people who are intending to go and would like to keep the element of surprise so I will just briefly talk about the experience.
They first guided one person from each group on basic sushi making and left the rest to us. We were also given a "mystery box" full of ingredients, using which we must make a dessert. Both dishes must bring out the given theme.
Overall, it was quite an interesting experience from which I learnt quite a few things from -- How to roll a simple maki roll, how to wet the knife to make cutting the maki roll more easily, how to deseed a cucumber etc.
The staff also played the role of judges and determined the team that won the cooking challenge. They also provided feedback to each team on their food.
The night ended with dinner service. Creamy pasta was served and we could also eat our own "creations".
