    If you're looking for a fun and educational activity during your trip to Beijing, we highly recommend Jasmine and Nancy's cooking class! The experience began with a walk through a local market, where we got to see all the everyday ingredients used in Chinese cooking. It was such a great way to understand the local food culture before we even started cooking. During the class, they taught us how to make dumplings completely from scratch. We chose to make pork and cabbage fillings, and they were incredibly delicious! Jasmine and Nancy have infinite patience and guided us through every step, making sure we got the techniques just right. They answered all our questions and shared so much knowledge about Chinese culture. If you want a fun, educational, and delicious cultural experience in Beijing, we highly recommend booking this class :)

    Two married couples participated. We had a great time. Jasmine was very friendly and taught me a lot during the market visit. They explained many things like food, dried foods and alcohol that they did not see in their country. Nancy was also kind and showed me how to make dumplings in an easy to understand way. It was very interesting. We enjoyed talking about each other's backgrounds and current jobs outside of dumplings. The opportunity to interact with the local residents was very valuable and I had a good time getting a glimpse of local life. I hope to join their tour when I visit again!

    Hello! My sister and I took this cooking class during our China's sister trip. Learning how to make the dumplings was so much fun! It was great to tour the local market and learn about the foods native to China. Check out the very purple eggplants! Jasmine and Nancy were great to talk to and answer our questions. We had great discussions about life in China. They gave us recommendations for Hot Pot and places to go out. I would highly recommend this intimate cooking class to learn how to cook dumplings and have a great discussion with locals.

    Super fun experience! 2 young girls from Beijing with excellent English. We went to a local market together to get groceries and made the Dumplings from scratch. Beautiful building that we prepped and cooked in.
