“Will was a fantastic teacher with a very engaging and entertaining style. We made 3 different types of dim sum with different fillings and folding techniques. One aspect we enjoyed of this class was that you got to eat exactly what you made. In other classes sometimes it's mixed so you don't get to critique your own food. It was a 3 hours class but it went by very quickly. We got 2 free drinks tokens that we could use on beer/wine/soft drinks. Worth mentioning that you of course eat at the end, which for our session was after 9pm, so you may wish to have a snack beforehand. Overall, it was a fantastic introduction to making your first dim sum, highly recommend!”

“The class was too long - the first 1.5 was the teacher Will hectically talking at us and making awkward jokes, then when it came to making the actual dim sum, there was no time to perfect the folding technique etc, and that part felt very rushed. In fact, the teacher would come over and shout at you there isn’t time, and that we are already behind. The dim sum itself was below average. I would not recommend.”
