Diana is an excellent and friendly teacher. The class was well organized and my 15 year old son and I enjoyed it immensely. One of the best cooking classes I’ve ever taken. We came away learning how to make our favorite - soup dumplings!
Our teacher Diana was knowledgeable and patient. We learned a lot about the food that we were cooking and how it was unique to Taiwanese culture. Our group included pre-teens/teens and adults, and we all felt the pace was appropriate. Food tasted great and really appreciate the recipe book souvenir!
What an extraordinary experience it was to learn all about the art of making xia long bao, niu rou mien, and boba cha. The cooking studio was very professional, well laid out and impeccably clean. We made our soup dumpling dough from scratch and learned the right techniques for filling and folding them close. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. I highly recommend this experience to all, young and old, families and singles.
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Diana. She was warm and welcoming and also a lot of fun. She and her team made sure that everything ran smoothly. As well we were quite mixed with ages and she included everyone. The food was delicious and we had so much fun. Thanks for this.
The instruction was engaging and fun. My wife and I had a great time learning how to make the dishes. Diana was a great instructor. Highly recommend
Great location and a great setup - specious, comfortable and most important on a humid July in Taipei - cool. The lesson was well organised, interesting and entertaining.
Our family took the Xiao Long Bao, Beef Noodle soup, and Boba class today and had a great experience with our instructor, Lydia. To be honest, our energy was a bit low right before class due to the heat and all the traveling we’d been doing. However, Lydia was so friendly and energetic that she engaged us the moment we walked through the door. The 3-hour class was incredibly well-organized and time flew by. It was both interesting and interactive for our whole family (two parents plus our young adult kids). We learned a lot about technique, building flavors, and the history behind each dish. Thank you to Lydia and the two assistants who helped run the class. I highly recommend this cooking school!
I was so impressed with this cooking experience. The instructor was funny and informative. The food was delicious and plentiful. It was such a wonderful experience!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy to hear you had such a wonderful time with us. Sharing great food, learning something new, and enjoying a few laughs together is exactly the experience we hope every guest takes home. We hope you'll be making Taiwanese dishes long after your trip to Taipei! 😊
Cookinn and Diana were fantastic. My 14 and 12 year old enjoyed the activity followed by eating what we made. The English instructions were clear, and Diana made it fun and informative. Very clean and you get the recipes!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that your whole family, especially your two teenager chefs, enjoyed cooking and sharing the meal together. Diana is so happy to know that her clear guidance and enthusiasm helped make the class both fun and informative. We hope the recipes bring back happy memories of Taiwan every time you recreate these dishes at home! 😊
Informative, friendly, professional, entertaining and we cooked delicious food. Included an individual recipe booklet……….
