Me and my wife did the 5 dish cooking…
Me and my wife did the 5 dish cooking class with our English speaking guide Lance, and our chef Lee. What a fantastic experience and a real highlight of our time here in China. The food was excellent, Lances English was fantastic, and was a real fun experience.First we were taken to a local market where Lance showed us all the local produce and answered our many and varied questions. We also picked out some fruit, dumplings and a century egg for eating later on, which we didn't have to pay for, a very nice touch.We then returned to the kitchen to enjoy some loose leaf tea and discussed what we would be making. We made mapo tofu, twice cooked pork, stir fried cabbage, cucumber salad and an aubergine dish. Me and my wife shared a wok station and followed along with what Lee the chef was doing, with translations from our guide Lance.Once we had finished cooking we sat down to a feast even with some bonus dishes thrown in from the chef!Thanks for an unforgettable experience!
