Like an empty canvas, the blank taste of pasta allows for experimentation with flavours or paint, depending on the artist’s age. Draw upon wells of knowledge with today’s Groupon: for RM88, you get a three-hour pasta making workshop worth RM180 from Cooking With Nicholas in Petaling Jaya.
Within spacious cooking commodes, pasta Padawans learn tips and tricks of lasagna and aglio olio creation from renowned chef, Nicholas Pillai, who will guide them through three informative hours. Ingredients and utensils are provided and apprentices will measure and prepare ingredients themselves and knowledge gained may be used to impress mates or incite jealousy. Hungry graduates should bring two containers to take home Italian goodness, while comfy clothes are a must to stretch pasta limbs and creative juices.
Nicholas Pillai is currently doing a PhD. in Food and Culinary Management and is the co-author of Healthy Eating – Recipes for the Asian Palate. He has written for publications such as Her World, OH Magazine, Clove, websites such as Against The Grain and Pharmvision.com, as well as the Malaysian Women’s Weekly. He has also provided recipes for Rasa, Nur, Majalah Midi, Parenthink, Ibu dan Ayah, Traverama and Shape.
