5.00An excellent experience cooking with Wayne. The class starts with a tour of a food market, including samples of local fruits and teas. Wayne is a great instructor and taught us some new techniques to use outside of Taiwanese cuisine as well. 10/10!

5.00This was a great cooking class. The recipes were not difficult to do, and the food was representative of Taiwanese cuisine. Wayne was an excellent guide at the market introducing us to a wide array or local produce. Everything for the class was well organized, and he was a patient and good teacher. And best of all was eating the food at the end. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend!
Great food great experience

5.00Wayne was a superb guide touring us around the local market and sharing a lot of local knowledge. We then had a fun time learning to cook local cuisine at his homely studio. Wayne was patient, kind, funny, the best Taiwan has to offer. Highly recommended!
Engaging and delicious!

5.00Wayne is an excellent guide and instructor! The tour through the market gave us an intro into the fresh ingredients found in a Taiwanese open market. Our foray into making beef noodle soup, soup dumplings, and boba tea kept all participants engaged and increasingly hungry for the final product. Lastly, our lunch did not disappoint—delicious and rewarding!

5.00My friends and I had a wonderful time learning about the different foods in the market and then cooking and eating our own lunch. We had the opportunity to try different teas and pick different fruit we have never tasted before. We received tips on cooking and recipes that we could go back and make for friends I highly recommend taking this personal tour.
