This was the first time that my partner and I had done a private cooking class, but Grace made us feel very comfortable in her house. I felt like I was just cooking a meal with a friend. The class was super well-prepared, with all ingredients and utensils ready for us. We finished in exactly 3 hours. The food was so delicious too! I was very pleasantly surprised to learn how to make high-quality egg tarts in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend Grace for anyone looking for an instructive and fun cooking experience!

Grace was a great teacher. I could tell that she was paying close attention to my cooking and prep techniques and gently guided me on how to improve while leaving me room to make mistakes and learn. Being a cooking professional herself, she shared a lot of interesting knowledge on how Michelin restaurants prep efficiently and bring out the best flavors in ingredients. I will definitely be using her tips when I cook at home!
She is also just a generally cool person. She has a DIY spirit with many homemade ingredients, such as fermented tea leaf, Sriracha, and black garlic (all of which tasted amazing). You can tell that she is very passionate about food, cooking, and diverse cuisine, not just Chinese, including European, Mediterranean, and Southeast Asian. I would love to learn other cuisines from her in the future!
And most importantly, everything we cooked was delicious - a perfect balance of salty, sweet, sour, umami, and spicy with contrasting textures and aromas in every bite. In such a short amount of time, I learned so much about not only cooking but also how to live passionately. I definitely would recommend her to my friends and plan to come back again. Thanks Grace!

We had such a great time with Grace! She’s so sweet and so knowledgeable! She not only teaches you how to cook, but gives you a full experience and Chinese immersion. We made noodles from scratch for the first time ever and will always cherish this memory with Grace.
Will definitely reach out again for more classes!

Grace was an excellent host and teacher! I loved how hands-on the class was. She is knowledgeable, warm, and very accommodating. And the food was absolutely delicious—I didn’t know you could make such flaky pastry in two hours. Grace gave explained each step of the three recipes as we were doing them. Highly recommend this class!

We had a wonderful time at Chef Grace’s cooking class. She was friendly and knowledgeable. She taught us how to make dan dan noodles, hot and sour soup, and egg custard pastries from scratch. Her home kitchen was clean and serviceable, with all the equipment and ingredients we needed. The class a good value and, of course, we got to enjoy our delicious creations at the end. I learned a number of new skills and tips that I can use at home. Very excited to be able to make fresh Chinese pasta with a Sichuan kick anytime, now!

We had an amazing Saturday afternoon cooking lesson with Chef Grace. Chef Grace kindly welcomed us into her home and taught us how to cook three delicious dishes. It was a pleasure getting to know Chef Grace. We had so much fun and look forward to practicing the recipes and cooking tips that Chef Grace taught us! Highly recommend.

We had a great experience. The dishes we learned to cook all used readily available ingredients. The recipes were pretty straight forward and the end products were exceptional. These are all things we will cook at home but never would have thought of before this class. The sticky rice deserts were really unique and tasty, the egg tarts were delicious and the won tons will be a staple in our dinner rotation. We were very happy with the whole experience and would recommend this class for sure!

My sister and I booked this class for us and our dad as a Christmas gift for him. It was a great gift for a hard to shop for person. We got to spend time together and learn at the same time! Grace was a great teacher and host. 10/10 would book again.

Grace was incredibly sweet and well prepared. She was very accommodating when I had to change my initial reservation and then she texted us with some additional things to bring (like tupperware and drinks) if we wanted.
While we cooked she taught us techniques and history for each of the dishes.All of the ingredients were meticulously prepared. The equipment was all so great too. I could tell she was passionate about cooking and I learned so much.
It was an incredible and unique experience.

Grace is very knowledgeable, thoughtful and friendly. She shares recipes but then provides guidance that’s hard to get from written instruction. It was SO MUCH FOOD and it was honestly some of the best Chinese food we’ve had!
