Best home cooking class in China!

We had an amazing time with Tilla and Jeff Ning’s family making two different types of dumplings. Tilla was so accommodating to our schedules. The Ning family was so hospitable and taught us how to become experts at making dumplings. The home was clean and lovely. We will definitely be back! A highlight of our trip to China for sure.

Amazing Experience!

We had such an amazing experience! Tilla our English guide was so friendly and helpful. The Ming family were so accommodating and lovely, they taught us how to make traditional Chinese dumplings and we had a proper sit down meal with the family which was so great. I highly recommend this experience.

Dumpling class with local family

Two of us signed up for a dumpling making experience in a private home. It was a very nice experience. We were met at our hotel by our guide, Dodo, and then we took an Uber to meet our host and her mother-in-law at their home. We learned how to make and roll out the dough, make the filling, and fold the dumplings. We had a nice meal with the dumplings we made, and additional dishes made by the host (steamed fish, two vegetables, and a cold chicken dish), plus fruit. Nice conversation, and a very warm welcome from everyone. It was a good experience!

Excellent class with a warm and friendly hostess

Our family booked this tour with a group of 8 people, including 3 children. Our hostess and guide took extremely good care of us. We made dumplings with 2 different fillings. The food was excellent, the hostess was gracious, and we all enjoyed ourselves. Thank you very much!

So much fun!

I made pork dumplings with a family in their home, and it was such a wonderful experience. They were so warm and friendly, my tour guide Lily had great English skills and was really great at explaining everything, and I had fun eating lunch together at their table :) The company had great communication, a really great experience.
