Recent reviews of Bao Buns Cooking Class
- 5/5 from Cavani Diggs, attended Sep 2026: I brought my boyfriend here to cap off the full day I planned for his birthday celebration and this was the perfect end to the night! The class was super simple and straightforward but also fun and collaborative. We learned some new cookign tips, had great talks with the other guests and the location in the hotel was actually so perfect. Our head chef/instructor was amazing with the energy the whole evening and helped with any fixes that we all needed and I would take another with him. The end product was so tasty and were great as left overs!
