The host provides a warm and hospitable environment. It was an amazing 1st volunteering experience for me on the World Packers platform. I achieved my goal to localise myself and learn about true Malaysian Cuisine. The host has exceptional knowledge on various topic and is an open book, willing to impart her life experience to others. The host provides flexibility in daily working schedule, accommodation is decent and location is fantastic, Just expect to have a 10.30pm curfew. Highly recommended. Expect this to not be a social to meet many travellers but to learn to be a Malaysian in KL.

We had a great stay with Lili and her mother Popo at Sarang Cookery! With them we could have a taste of the great Peranakan Cuisine and Culture! We supported Lili in many tasks, from buying fresh products in the local market and preparing the ingredients for usage in the classes, to taking photos of the students in action (during the classes) and keeping everything clean and arranged for the next day the host. They treated us like family and it was very nice to be there sharing our days with them. If we go back to KL we'll sure try to get to Sarang Cookery once again! Many thanks, Lili & Popo

Our experience at Sarang Cookery could not have been better. Lili and Popo are amazing people and we felt right at home. We were lucky to be able to accompany them on their visits to the local markets to buy the fresh ingredients they use in their classes and in their daily lives. In fact, tasting their delicious cuisine was another highlight of our time there. They always fed us very well, with delicious food, made with love. Spending time with them, sharing our days while we helped with the chores, taught us a lot about the local culture and customs. It was a truly rewarding experience!

Stella & Diego joined us at Sarang Cookery as volunteers for our cooking classes, and we became like family. Warm, friendly, respectful, they brought great energy and dedication to everything they did. Proactive and reliable, they never said "I don't know"—instead, they found solutions and completed tasks with a smile. From waking up early to join us at the market to sharing breakfast and laughs, they gave their full heart to the experience. Truly the kind of volunteers you'll ever wish for.

I had an amazing experience at Sarang Cookery. I had an opportunity to assist them in the host, leveraging my marketing and web development skills during my time which was really fulfilling and exciting. The host was really friendly and her mom and they swede really supportive since I arrived. The food was always amazing and the bonus was being able to participate in one of their classes and of-course enjoy the tradition Malaysian cuisine. I highly recommend this experience to anyone.

Lili and Pipo are two incredible, hard-working women with so much heart. I learned not only about the host, but also about dedication and generosity . They open their home with love, ready to give and receive with open arms. Their warmth and kindness made me feel welcome and valued from the very first moment. They're also flexible and understanding, just be sure to communicate in advance. I truly loved my time with them, the visits to the markets were the best!. It felt like becoming part of a family.
