“I booked this as a birthday present for my boyfriend as a fun activity to do together after work. Instead it turned out to be 3 hours stuck in an interrogation style room with an extremely rude instructor Will, who insulted us, made inappropriate innuendos and shouted at anyone if they dared speak or look away during his extremely long winded explanations. The first hour consisted of Will lecturing us, which meant that we were then rushing the actual cooking part of the class and didn’t end up eating until 9:30pm. As part of the price, 2 drinks were included which we could apparently have at any point during the class, however when I asked to have one I was told I had to wait until I had ‘earnt it’. I feel like I paid to be bullied for 3 hours and didn’t even feel comfortable talking to my boyfriend for the fear of being shouted at. I would not recommend this experience at all.”

“Really enjoyable class. The instructor was very enthusiatic and energetic, creating a nice atmosphere and engaging the whole calss in the format. The food we made was excellent and not overly complicated - meaning I am likely to try it again outside of the class in the future. Overall would recommend.”

“Our teacher Will was absolutely fantastic. Guided us through making 3 types of dim sum with lots of insight, joy, and dumpling jokes. I had such a fun time in itself and even better I feel like I gained skills and tips I can apply at home to continue on my dim sum journey!”

“What a fun experience! The Dim Sum class was truly enjoyable from start to finish. Teacher Will was fantastic! On time and very clear in his explanations. He made everything easy to follow while keeping the atmosphere relaxed and engaging. We also really appreciated the free drinks and the delicious lunch made with the food we prepared ourselves. It was such a rewarding and memorable experience. Highly recommended!”
