Private Event: Fresenius Medical Care - 19 Jan 2013




Jeaw Moon and Sing Shia came to see us with a brilliant idea of organising a Cooking Competition for their dialysis patients from Peninsular as part of their Company's CSR activities. "So You Think You Can Cook? Wok It Cooking Competition" was born!

Participants came from KL, Butterworth and Johor. Fresenius Medical Care's MD, Mr Lim, our Chef Khai and Chef Ryan of My Nourishment magazine were the judges for the night. The event went well with all participants cooking up a storm. The 1st prize of RM1,000 shopping vouchers went to Team Zhi En Johor with their Baked Chicken and Vegetables dish.

Prize giving and a slides presentation of the event ended the night in a happy mode. Everyone was treated to a well deserved delicious healthy dinner specially prepared for the night.

We are located in a bungalow with a big garden in an affluent neighbourhood. If you would like to organise any team building acitivities, cooking competition, corporate events, parties or get-togethers at our culinary studio, please contact us at 016-377 8236 or e-mail at19culinary [at] yahoo.com.

We liaised long distance with Eddie in Singapore and Mei Ling in KL to co-ordinate this cooking class. Everything was finalised and ready for 19 Dec.

They wanted a cooking competition where groups will compete against each other in 4 categories - soup, appertiser, mains and dessert. The menu for the day was Mushroom Soup, Seafood in filo pastry, Chicken Roulade in mushroom sauce and Classic Apple Pie.

There was great bonding time between the Singapore managers and their KL team. After their hard work, everyone sat down to savour their cooked dishes.

At 19 Culinary Studio at SKII event – 17 Nov and 8 Dec 2012




When SKII approached us to conduct a Gingerbread Decorating workshop for their Elite members, we were delighted. It was SKII’s annual appreciation party for their Elite members. This time, the 2 parties were held at I Utama and Sunway Pyramid. At 19 conducted a demonstration on how to decorate the gingerbreads with a Christmas theme. Elite members and their family had a whale of a time, especially the children, decorating the gingerbreads in the most creative way.

SKII held a “Best Decorated Christmas Gingerbread” contest and needless to say, Elite members were trying to outdo each other busy piping all sort of designs with royal icing of different colours. There were snowman, gingerbread boy, gingerbread girl and xmas tree. We even colour the fondant for snowman’s hat in SKII corporate red colour.

Everyone had a fun time including all of us At 19. If you are looking to do fun offsite culinary activities like SKII, do drop us an e-mail to enquire - at19culinary [at] yahoo.com. We will be more than happy to assist.

At 19 Culinary Studio always strives to come up with interesting ideas for our customers. A bright idea come up one day during our brain storming sessions and we thought why not have well known local bakers come and teach our customers.

We contacted a few celebrity bakers in town and after a few e-mails, chit-chat, we signed on Nigel of Just Heavenly and Cheng Yi aka Fat Boy Bakes. For those who do not know (shame on you!), Just Heavenly is a very popular novelty cake shop in town and Fat Boy Bakes is synonymous with delicious cakes.

If you would like to join our Celebrity Bakers series, there are 3 more classes on 24 Nov (Fat Boy Bakes), 1 Dec (Fat Boy Bakes), 9 Dec (Just Heavenly). Log on to our website class calender at www.at19culinary.com/schedule.html for details. Seats are limited. Hurry and book. See ya soon!
