IKEA's Swedecook Event - 1 July 2012

At 19 Culinary Studio was proud to be the host for the winners of IKEA’s Pretty Smart Kitchen Contest which ran in June. The winners were invited to a hands-on Swedecook event cooking up a storm under the guidance of Chef Khai in our kitchen. Of course all recipes were typically Swedish – Swedish Canapes (fish cakes on toast with salad and saffron mayonnaise), Jansson’s Temptations, Lindstromare (minced mutton with beetroot, capers & spices served with picked cabbage and onion sauce), Dark Chocolate Kladdkaka with raspberries.

Needless to say, all the winners had fun and fond memories of their cooking experience at At 19 Culinary Studio. Karen Ng of IKEA has this to say "Thanks and yes, we had fun. We're glad to also see the winners were all eager to learn and one of them even blogged about the event."

If you are looking for a culinary adventure, call us at 016-377 8236 or e-mail us at19culinary@yahoo.com.

Kids Birthday Party

Just look at all those smiling faces. We hosted a little girl's birthday party at our studio recently and she invited her friends over for an all girls' baking and cupcake decorating session. There were lots of chit chattering, fun, kids telling each other what to do - "do it this way, not that way", "teacher, teacher how do you....?" The girls created their animal zoo designs using fondant under the guidance of cake decorator Yee Laine. The girls' decorated their cupcakes with handmade hippo, elephant, snake and birds. Great stuff! Master little chefs in the making!

IKEA's Swedecook Class: Bloggers' session - 7 June 2012

 Hey, did you all know about the IKEA Pretty Smart Kitchen Contest which ended on 14 June 2012? Yes, yes, yes, all you had to do was to e-mail a photo of your fun kitchen moments to IKEA and 10 winners will be picked. Guess what is the prize?

Hurray! a free Swedish Cooking class at At 19 Culinary Studio. Yeap, what a prize it was. We conducted the first session for IKEA's brand ambassadors who are bloggers for a first hand experience of a cooking class in our At 19 kitchen studio. Blogjunkies, David Wang and wife Pei Chyi, Kak Ina, Abang Sop, Health Freak mommy Shireen, Bitter sweet Lemon Evelyn all arrived with gusto to prepare and savour a swedish 3-course meal.

Everyone had so much fun cooking up a storm of delicious swedish food - Janson’s Temptations (traditional Swedish casarole), Poached Salmon with dill and lemon sauce and Crepes with honeyed apples and vanilla ice-cream. Yummy! Even though not a swedish!, Chef Khai conducted the cooking class with ease and experience of a top notch swedish executive chef. Look at the presentation of the finished dishes - simply fantatstic.

The 10 winners of the IKEA contest will be picked this week for a Swedecook masterchef class with Chef Khai on 1 July at At 19 Culinary Studio. The recipes to be taught are being fine-tuned. Watch out for more suprises in our next post.

Private Class: Ana's Bridal Shower - 12 May 2012

When Tasha e-mailed us to host a cupcakes baking class as a bridal shower for her friend, Ana who was getting married in June, we were delighted. The theme was black and red. Tasha got each of the girls black t-shirts with their names printed in red - cool! We quickly put on our thinking caps and came up with the theme of Bride & Groom. The girls created designs of a bridal dress, a groom's suit, roses and ribbons, all on black and red fondant. A touch of glitter was added as the finishing touch and hey presto - 4 lovely decorated cupcakes. We even brought out our new red coloured kitchen aid mixer just for Ana!

What an event it was. All the girls changed into their black t-shirts and everyone looked fantastic in their cool jeans. Of course the bribe-to-be had a polka dot apron and everyone enjoyed themselves baking, chit chatting, chilling out without boyfriends and husbands. Great stuff. We wish you the very best Ana....Happliy Ever After from all of us At 19!
