One of the most unique experience, where you get to listen to Peranakan stories and immerse in the culture. The host Alvin is multi talented and has lots to share
Had a Pleasant experience at ITAN Peranakan. I learnt a lot about the history of peranakan from Alvin the host and owner of the museum. His collection was priceless. It Ended with some nonya kuehs and Tea with Alvin playing his piano for us.
wonderful experience with our host Alvin. he explained to us the concept behind his home and even shared some snacks/ tea with us. the piano performance was also a lovely touch
