Recent reviews of Chinese Dumplings Cooking Class

  • 5/5 from Tia Kermarec, attended Aug 2026: What an amazing class! Mark was fantastic and spent time with each of us, making sure our dough was correct and having the correct dumpling folding technique. The food is fantastic! Such a great atmosphere.
  • 5/5 from Colette Lappin, attended Jun 2026: Fabulous evening! Really enjoyed our dumpling class and the expert advice from our Chef who made the evening interactive and really enjoyable. Thank you!!
  • 5/5 from Jarrod Haines, attended Jun 2026: The Chinese dumpling class was amazing and Kym the teacher was amazing. Highly recommend
  • 2/5 from Karen Quick, attended Jun 2026: We had fun, but not as advertised, we were not shown how to make fillings, it was just "you'll be sent the recipe" and only got to try 2 out of 3 fillings. It was very rushed, yes a few were late and one group had been sent an email for a different course but the date of our course, but she was determined to have us out the door at 8.30pm on the dot, it took the joy of cooking away. The teaching was limited, keep up or miss out, and a lot of "the recipe will say but I was taught" speak. Car park talk after was not positive, many of us felt the same way.
  • 5/5 from Gabriela Hekkens, attended May 2026: Did this class with my dad and we both really enjoyed it. English is dad’s second language and so sometimes struggles in group settings but Chef Daniel’s instructions were easy to follow and the food was delicious! Thank you for making this a fun experience for us both
  • 5/5 from Micheal Andrew Martin, attended May 2026: Great fun class. Kym was a wonderful teacher, the dumplings were delicious and so many to eat! Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Shaghila Subhash, attended May 2026: Class was good. Kym was patient with slow hands like me. And her tips were very useful. Generous amount of practices. Generous amount of dumplings to feel on. Very satisfied. Looking forward to sign up for other classes️ Suggestions: Only thing is that if we could have been asked to bring an insulated containers to pack away cooked or uncooked dumplings would have been useful. I understand the food standard policy is in place but if the food was packed safely then it shouldn’t be a worry.
  • 5/5 from Verity Mansfield, attended Apr 2026: Mark was a great teacher! Funny and warm and welcoming. Didn't realise how easy it was to make a variety of dumplings which were so tasty! Definitely trying these at home. Makes a perfect date night.

  • 4/5 from Lindsay Kinnaird, attended Jul 2025: Mark was great. Food was very good. Cooking space was a bit cramped

The instructor was positive and clear with her instructions, she also provided help when needed. The only thing I would add to further improve the class would be to have take away containers available or letting people know in the email prior to the class to bring take away containers for the left over dumplings that you could not eat.
  • 5/5 from Sandra Hayward, attended Oct 2024: We enjoyed making and eating dumplings in this class- fried, boiled and pan fried. They were delicious! We started off quickly with some fried dumplings, so we wouldn’t be too hungry. The recipe for the dough was easy, and our chef took us through all of the various shapes which can be made. She was great at showing us the various shapes for different purposes, and was happy to repeat any steps. Our dumplings were a bit wonky, but they cooked up plump and delicious with a bit of broth or sauce, looking like fresh dumplings served up in a restaurant. We had a great time.
