Recent reviews of Asian Dumpling Making Workshop
- 5/5 from Sema Bahnsen, attended Mar 2026: It was a nice and easy lesson on how to make dumplings. I hope to see the recipe and other tips in an email!! Thank you for organizing this
- 5/5 from Cortney Waits, attended Sep 2025: This was such an amazing class!!! We had a blast and the teacher was awesome! Lots of fun and learned something new! 10/10 recommend for a fun unique date night!!! We loved it!
- 4/5 from Bill Gregory, attended May 2025: (Couple) - great date night. Both chefs were informative, warm, friendly, and invested in everyone having a good time and learning. Well organized and good venue. For us, we signed up expecting to learn shumai and additional dumplings, so this class wasn’t at the right level. Would also suggest filling up the full two hours- people started leaving 75 min in Would love to take a class again with the right expectations for what types of dumplings we’d learn to make.
