Awesome event! - The scenery of Dadaocheng is beautiful! I like this antique street scene, and the hospitable Taipei chef teacher is also very kind. Visiting the vegetable market, listening to historical stories and cooking activities are all very interesting~ I think it is worth it and I can give it 100 points~~ Thank you teacher! Worth a second visit! It is also recommended to everyone who likes humanities, history, and cooking to participate!

Hospitality Taipei - A fun cooking class in Dadaocheng - Teacher Alex is very attentive. During class, he tells a lot of historical stories and cooking knowledge. He also takes us to nearby markets to let us know more about Taiwan’s local culture, which is an experience that ordinary tourists rarely have. If you come to Taipei and want a special experience, you can sign up for a cooking class with a teacher 😂 The teacher is very nice~

Great course - I took the „Jiujia Men Club Dish squid soup and fried rice noodles“ cooking class. We started with a tour around the market and some history about the district and then proceeded to the kitchen. The kitchen space itself was very nice and comfortable. Everything was very well prepared so that we could get quickly into chopping. Alex speaks great English, was fun to talk with and explained the ingredients and cooking methods. I like that the ingredients were not too special, so that I’ll have a chance to cook this at home in Germany. I even got tips for souvenir shopping.

Famous Taiwanese cuisine---Braised Pork Rice and Pork Soup Cooking Experience Class - The first complete cooking experience in my life was a cooking class dedicated to teacher Alex! Thank you to the teacher for providing a comfortable cooking space and a relaxing and pleasant cooking environment. He carefully helped me make braised pork rice and meat soup from scratch step by step. It also gave me a better understanding of Dadaocheng. Everyone is welcome to come to Taipei and come and experience it together! !
