Tripadvisor review: Vegan Soup Dumpling Making in Shanghai

Fabulous Chinese cooking class with Chinese culture sprinkled

Highly recommend this Xiaolongbao soup dumpling cooking class! Chef Yin is an excellent cook who does a great job of teaching and providing hands-on cooking experience to participants. She is also engaging and personable and throughout the class, it was great to hear stories about China and Chinese culture and really get a deeper understanding of the country that we were visiting. Chef Yin can also customize cooking classes for you depending on what Chinese food you want to learn how to make, which is great because my son and husband like specific Chinese dishes that I can learn how to make.

Viator review: Camellia Jewelry: Bamboo Weaving for Brooch, Earring & Ring

“I took this class on my last day in China and 1 am so glad I did. Yin gave great instructions on how to make it to her studio (she even has a video) and met me outside. We greeted the local cats in the building and then we began to make our jewelry. I enjoyed talking to Yin and the end results turned out pretty close to to the professionally made ones in the photos. She even provided me glue to finish attaching the last items back at my hotel so I didn't have to sit around waiting for them to dry.”

Viator review: Vegan Soup Dumpling Making in Shanghai

Made my Shanghai trip worth it. Best teacher, awesome class and delicious food.

Yin is an awesome teacher who showed me how to make delicious vegan dumplings. All the steps were included (except chopping up the dumpling filling very thinly - she had already prepared it and it saved time to focus on the dumpling making itself). The hardest part for me was rolling out the dough. The folding method for the dumplings is really fast to learn. While cooking and preparing you can chat with Yin like a friend who you have known a long time. She also gives you tips where to go, what to see etc.

After you made the dumplings and they are ready to eat you can enjoy them in the kitchen with Yin.

I loved this class abd it's a little different expericence but so worth it. 100% can recommend!:)

Very recommendable authentic cooking experience

Very nice chinese cooking experience in an authentic private space. Yin is an open and eloquent person who likes to tell all about cooking yet also everything about Shanghai and China. The dishes that we made under Yin's supervision were very tasty. Not too complicated for a beginner chef, yet done the 'Chinese way' made them very enjoyable. Yin is a patientvteacher and helps out wherever needed. We will cherish the memory of this afternoon in our hearts.
