Had a great time learning to make baos. There were only three of us in ‘class’, which was perfect for getting tips from the owner. I recommend the bbq pork bun for your snack! So good!

Amazing class! Everything is provided, the workshop is clean and the instructions are super easy to follow. May Ling is a fantastic teacher and we had some tasty handmade bao to eat whilst waiting for our dough to rise. A great experience and I will definitely be booking again!
