An unforgettable, authentic experience—a top 5 highlight of my trips to China
Penny and her friends were incredible hosts. The experience started with a convenient hotel pick-up, followed by a fascinating local market tour. At their welcoming home, we enjoyed a traditional tea ceremony, learned to cook ribs, and got hands-on making dumpling dough and fillings from scratch. Eating the variety of food we helped prepare was fantastic. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting!

Great experience
My wife and I had a great experience. Penny is super knowledgeable and had many interesting stories and facts to share about Shanghai. The host family made us feel very welcome and taught us how to cook some delicious food. A very unique experience and a great way to experience Shanghai like a local!

The real magic, though, happened in the chef’s home. Being welcomed into a local family's apartment gave us a rare and personal peek into daily life ...daha fazla oku

Beyond my expectations!
This was exactly the experience I was looking for! Penny was a wonderful guide and gave me an historical introduction to the area as we drove to the wet market. Penny explained how the Wet Market works and she bought a vegetable I did not know for me to try. From there we went to Kelly’s home where we met the Shanghai Grandmother who, with incredible expertise, showed me how to make dumplings as another, delicious pork dish, cooked on the stove! I absolutely loved the entire evening and experien...daha fazla oku
