“I recently attended a dim sum cooking class, and I’m still buzzing from the experience! This class was an absolute gem, combining fun, learning, and, of course, mouthwatering dim sum. The teacher was nothing short of amazing. Hilarious and charismatic, they kept the atmosphere light-hearted and engaging while showcasing their impressive culinary expertise. It’s rare to find an instructor who can effortlessly balance humor with deep knowledge, but they nailed it! The class was thoughtfully designed to cater to both beginners and more advanced participants. We were guided step-by-step through the entire process, from making the dough from scratch (a skill I never thought I’d master!) to crafting intricate and beautiful shapes. The hands-on approach was empowering, and the teacher’s tips and tricks made even the more complex techniques approachable. The best part? Seeing my creations come to life. I genuinely impressed myself with the shapes and presentation—something I didn’t think I could achieve! And as for the taste? Simply divine. Every bite was a testament to the fresh ingredients and techniques we learned. If you’re considering a dim sum class, don’t hesitate—this one is a must-try. Whether you’re a novice in the kitchen or a seasoned home chef, you’ll leave with newfound skills, delicious recipes, and a big smile on your face. I can’t recommend it enough!”
