Amazing Dandan Noodles Cooking Class

I ate Dandan Noodles for the first time in Chengdu some years ago and since then I have attempted to make them myself using recipes from the Internet with limited success hence I decided to take the class to learn properly. Lance was my guide and he was amazing. He conducted the class following a visit to the local market.

Best cooking class on a trip so far !

I offered this cooking class to my girlfriend as a birthday present, and it was beyond what I hoped for! Everything was perfect. The market visit was super interesting, and Lance took the time to explain everything, answer all our (numerous) questions, and even taste the products with us. I would recommend this to anyone interested in food and cooking who is visiting Chengdu. Thank you, Lance! Sarah & Pierre

Amazing experience

The excursion to the local spice market in a small group was a great experience and cooking together was great fun. Our guide was very charming and had lots of interesting details for us. The "treasure hunt" on the spice maket was a great idea! :)
