Gratuities

Put on your chef’s hat and partake in this Sichuan cooking class in Chengdu that will teach you how to cook four different traditional Chinese dishes. The dishes include Kung Pao chicken (‘Gong Bao chicken’ in Sichuan), sweet and sour pork, fish-flavor eggplant and dumplings. (You may also learn a dish of your own choice, provided that you inquire in advance; you may request this when booking). You’ve seen all these dishes on a typical Chinese menu, so discover for yourself how they are made! Learn about the delicate ways people from the Sichuan province use different spices, handle separate food elements and make use of different utensils. Follow the cooking practices of your professional chef, and master the art of Sichuan cooking. The best part is eating, of course! Taste your masterpieces and be amazed by how wonderful of a cook you are. Take this training home with you and astonish your friends and family by serving home-cooked dishes that rival those of the Chinese restaurant around the corner.

The best time I had in China

This was a super intimate experience, with just me and my young teenage sons. They both were up for experimenting with some cooking, and this was just the right level of challenge for us all. We started with a couple classics and then moved to harder dishes, even folding dumplings - she was a master and made beautiful fish and other animals, while we prayed ours would stay together through cooking. The food was fresh and abundant. The lessons were quick and clear. The recipes were simple and d...read more

It was perfect! I was picked up promptly in a private van and taken to the kitchen for my class. It happened that I was the only one there that day so it was a private lesson. Every question I asked was answered and was given tips as I went along. Very enjoyable and tasty too. Got to take my food back to the hotel for my son and daughter-in-law to enjoy. She is Chinese and said it was some of the best she had tasted! The whole experience was great. Would highly recommend it to anyone who enjo...read more

The taxi driver was ontime and dropped us off at Holly's Hostel, which is close to Wuhouci and the Jinli walking street area. Some of the ingredients like tofu and green onions were pre-chopped and the garlic and ginger had already been peeled which made the cooking go fast. I took notes on the preparation and recipe as the instructor lead us through them. Each one...read more
