Satay (barbecued spiced meat on a skewer) is a well-known Southeast Asian-style grilled meat dish. Even though Indonesia is thought to be the true birthplace of satay, this dish is found in Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. Serving these satays with our homemade peanut dipping sauce, cucumber and a bowl of rice will transport you to the streets of Singapore.
One of the must-try dishes if you ever visit Singapore is Hainanese chicken rice. It is a dish adapted by Chinese immigrants originally from Hainan province in southern China. It is considered "street" food or "hawker food" in Singapore; not a refined Chinese cuisine.

"Bought him a subscription when it was just one type of box - so like the family one. We loved it! Now I see there’s a date night one for adults specifically and am very tempted to resubscribe for his next gift"
"So far so good. We accidentally used the wrong seasoning packet on our first meal, lol, but it was a great learning experience. So far everything seems easy to follow. I may have more thoughts after a few more boxes."
"We thoroughly enjoyed this Italy kit. It was thoughtfully put together and it makes for a really great few date nights! After doing our first one, we are both looking forward to cooking our next meal from our kitchen together!"
"I provided this to my clients after their cruise to France. They all loved it, and really thought it was unique. They also said that the chicken came out just like the recipe and was so moist and tasty."
"We have gotten all the kits from each country and our family really enjoys them! They're educational, not only for the kids but for us adults as well. The recipes bring us together as we learn facts about different countries, cooking techniques, and trying new food."
"It was such a great experience shopping for the ingredients together as a family and then coming home to cook it together! Such a great learning activity to add to homeschooling. My daughter is 4 and loved this whole experience! She got to learn about Greece too and then eat a dish we personally made. How fun is that!?"
"My 12y made Jamaican Curry. It came out delicious."
"Kids love exploring the world with this subscription. They love cooking the recipes. Instructions are easy to follow, and dishes are delicious! The passport and the flag pins are very exciting for them!"
"We got the apron and the cookbook, which is awesome, but we didn't get the 2 country boxes."
"I got my son the 6 month subscription to start and see how we liked it. So far we have enjoy each month. But all the months we have gotten have been countries from Asia and my son is started getting bored. I wish we would have gotten more of a variety of other countries. Overall we have enjoyed trying new recipes and foods that we wouldn’t have otherwise tried. I definitely would consider renewing our subscription in the future."
