  I had a great experience cooking with Yin. I like to take cooking classes to help me understand the local culture and food. I've noticed that teachers tend to speak better than average English, and Yin is no exception: she meet all my expectations! Even before booking, the variety of diversity of dishes on the menu stood out for me. We cooked 4 out of a menu of over 20; all other classes I found focus on one or two dishes and offer a very short selection, if any at all. The class was very relaxed, Yin was very patient and her explanations in English were clear and practical. She showed me how to fill every dish and then I had the opportunity to cook the same dish myself. Best of all, I had to do no prep or cleaning! She made me feel very welcome in her studio. She also liked to share things about her life in China.

  Really great experience! Yin clearly loves what she does, it showed in every aspect of the class. She sent a video with instructions on how to get to the location which was very helpful. The class started with a tour of a nearby market, where Yin showed us some of the ingredients we would be using. Once back at the studio she explained the recipes we would be making. We were a chatty group and Yin was great to talk to. The class was well structured and myself and my partner both left feeling as though we had learned things even though we were at different cooking skill levels. Yin helped where needed, explained everything thoroughly, and also made sure we did a lot of cooking ourselves. The four recipes we made were absolute hits and I will definitely be making them at home! We got to take some leftovers with us which was much appreciated! Yin also shared written versions of the recipes on Whatsapp with me afterwards. There was one other person in our class so we had a group of 3 which was a good size - it was great to meet and get to know someone else travelling China in such a warm, welcoming environment. I cooked with Yin and my partner cooked with the other class member which was a lot of fun. If you are looking for a fun afternoon in Shanghai where you can learn some Chinese cooking and eat your delicious creations this class is a great option and I would highly recommend it!

  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.

  Yin was extremely helpful and kind. Even though the location is out-of-the-way the instructions on how to get there were very easy to follow as she both sent us a video and met us along the way (with fans for us to use because it was so hot🤭). Even though we were not the best chefs and made mistakes she very clearly explained how to do it properly and remained very patient. She chatted with us when we cooked about random things like school in China and cars. We felt very welcomed. She also brewed tea for us and told us about different kinds of tea while we waited for the dough to rise. We also made ”dumpling pizzas” with leftover pieces of dough. After the course was done she even helped us buy medicine we needed😆. Yin really went above and beyond and i would definitely recommend this course to anyone visiting Shanghai!
