Yummy Dumplings!! - I’m from Los Angeles and this class is never offered there. Was excited to take it in Hong Kong. Feliz was very nice and personable. The market walk was very interesting. I had actually walked through temple street night market the night before and yet missed the wet market entirely. The walk was very informative. The restaurant where the class ended up at was a few blocks away. We made the entirety of the recipe in the two hrs we had left. Her instructions were clear and straight forward. The dumplings were quite delicious at the end. I very much enjoyed this class and would recommend it to everyone!!

A fun way to experience... - A fun way to experience Hong Kong Culture and learn the tradition of making soup dumplings first hand. We walked the wet market together as a group and then went to a café to learn, cook and eat! Feliz was a great teacher and guide.

Soup Dumplings on steroids - You will learn a lot from the soup dumpling experience, from soup to nuts. Under guiding hands, you'll stroll through the market to gather the best ingredients for today's class. Gentle-people, offer to carry something.
Once shopping is complete, you'll head to the cafe to make dumplings. Before entering the cafe, there is a shop where libations can be bought. Don't forget the nuts! You may need a snack before your dumplings are ready.
Under simple patient instructions, you will learn the complete procedure: filling, soup, dumpling wrapper, and dumpling forming. We spent about 2 hours making 10 dumplings each.
Finally, we ate our own creations. I had new-found respect for dumpling makers but was glad I could now make my own if I wished.

Highly recommended - a unique culinary experience! - Feliz is a wonderful local guide. She met us at MTR Jordan Station and walked us through the Temple Street Night Market and explained local cuisine at each of the stalls. We also bought the organic pork for the dumpling filling so you know it's fresh - chopped and minced right in front of your eyes at the butcher! Then we walked to a local cafe where the cooking lesson begins! Making dumplings from scratch is a lot of work but we all had a great time - with a delicious soupy reward at the end to fill our bellies! My children ages 10 and 13 had a lovely experience. We enjoyed talking with the other members of the group - always neat to talk with other tourists and share ideas for things to do. Highly recommended - a unique culinary experience!

Interesting and fun cooking experience. - Feliz showed us around at the wet market which was very interesting. However she did not always wait for the whole group before she presented something which make people mis parts of the story. The cooking itself was well explained with delicious dumplings as results. Sometimes a bit more engagement with the local host would be nice. Overall, would recommend for someone wanting to learn the techniques of making dumplings.
