What our client say

As a food lover, I appreciated learning why Shanghainese dumplings are so special. The market smelled incredible - piles of fresh ginger, live crabs, and hanging roasted ducks everywhere! Our group laughed so much trying to pleat the dumplings properly. Mine burst in the steamer (oops!), but the ones that survived tasted amazing. Wish we had more time to ask the chef questions!

This was the highlight of our Shanghai trip! The wet market tour felt like stepping into real local life - our guide explained all the exotic ingredients with such passion. Making xiaolongbao was trickier than I expected, but the chef patiently taught us the folding technique. The best part? Eating our lopsided but delicious dumplings afterward! Came with empty stomach and left completely stuffed with new skills. 100% recommend!
