Pork and lemongrass dumplings
Mushroom and vegetable dumplings
Lychee cocktail
Popo trio cocktail

We can hold up to 50 people for the class in a private space onsite, perfect for any event. Alternatively, if you have tables and gas burners, we can come to you.

Hazel Duwenbeck • Jan 2022

Lovely class, great teacher learnt a lot would recommend! maybe a tad too much ginger/lemongrass in the dumpling recipe but a minor issue. :)

Julia Rademeyer • Jan 2022

We had a great time at this class! Covid put a spanner in the works and Hamilton was able to navigate it well and still give us a wonderful experience. The cocktail making portion was fantastic. Only thing I'd say is a recipe for each drink and dumpling would be a nice take-home.

Cassi Wooldridge • Jan 2022

Absolutely loved our class Our teacher was Kieran (I think) and he was wonderful. Couldn’t recommend this class more. It was fun, interesting and a great option for a Saturday late arvo. We also did the bottomless package to enjoy with our dumpling after.

Stephanie Jones • Jan 2022

Hands down the best gift we have been given from family. Food and cocktails are to die for. The experience was relaxed, fun, fab vibes and music. Kieran was an incredible teacher. Would love to come back and do this again.

Cooking workshop review by Stephanie Jones

Steph Yamada • Jan 2022

Really enjoyed the class and thought the instructors were lovely.

Only real thing that came to mind was maybe making the dumplings first so that you could eat them with the cocktails.

Curious to see if it’s done intentionally for another reason.

Kristen Tiong • Jan 2022

This was such a fun experience The teachers were very passionate and helpful, and so were all the other staff there. The venue was felt very warm and authentic and everything we were given was great quality. It was great value for money, getting to learn how to make the cocktails (and drink them!) as well as being taught 3 different dumpling folds and then getting to eat so many. Only thing is that this class was postponed due to covid reasons which was understandable, but then it still ran later than they had said and we were quite hungry at the end. But otherwise, a really great time

Cooking workshop review by Kristen Tiong Sydney

Anna Sullivan • Jan 2022

The teachers were great! Very interactive, and the location was perfect for a class setting. The cocktail choices were delicious and more than enough dumplings were made! Would recommend!

Sarah Alcasid • Jan 2022

The teachers were fantastic! My group appreciated the detail that went into each explanation and they also made it very fun! The venue had such a great vibe and all the staff were friendly, I would 100% bring friends back to do this class again.

Vivienne Ricketts • Dec 2021

We loved this class. Really tailored to our group and everything was made easy and super clear on what we had to do. Loved it would highly recommend!

It was such a fun evening. We had more food than we could eat so definitely good value. Easy going and very relaxed.

Zoe Lamond • Dec 2021

I would highly recommend this class. It was a great experience and the cocktails and dumplings were delicious!

Christopher Gale • Dec 2021

Keiran was fantastic. He was extremely patient with us and talked us through every step, making it a fun, easy and delicious experience. We learnt 2 different cocktail styles and 4 different dumpling folding styles. However, I would have preferred to also be given the recipes there and to follow along with them too because I immediately wanted to replicate it and show people my dumpling and cocktail making skills. For me, the only downfall to the experience was getting the bottomless package. We kept on having to tell people every waiter that we were on the package and continually explain to us. We only ended up really having 3 drinks because the waiters took so long to get back to us. It wasn’t really value for money. Overall however it was a great experience and I’m already looking up the next course to do with my partner.

Veronica Mitchell • Dec 2021

Such a fun class, really friendly and interactive teachers! The cocktails and dumplings were delish!

Cocktail and Dumpling Making Class review by Sarah Sydney

Lauren Andrade • Jun 2021

The teacher (Kieran, I believe) was absolutely lovely, hilarious, so welcoming and patient. The drinks we made were delicious (one more sweet fruit lychee and the over very fresh and would not be my usual go to but I loved it!) And the dumplings were plentiful! Cooked so well and I had a great time learning the 4 different folding styles that they showed us. A super enjoyable, beginners friendly class, highly recommend!

Pavitra Vobilisetty • Jun 2021

The class was great! The teacher was fun and enthusiastic. It did feel like some people were paid more attention than the others. And I was expecting to make the batter for the dumplings ourselves too. So I was a little disappointed that we were handed out pre-cut sheets.

Keiran was so engaging and helpful, he guided us every step of the way and made it so fun! He was so lovely to learn from! The venue was trendy with a great vibe and perfectly set-up for our group.

Great value for money with everything provided from the bottle of gin and vodka to the top quality dumpling ingredients, we definitely feel like we received a lot more dumplings which filled us up well past dinner time!

Mariela Hardwick • May 2021

The class was great! Keiran was lovely. We made friends with the couple beside us and Keiran was quick to accommodate us to sit together and socialise with them. Something different and enjoyable for our date. Honkers is a great little place. Heaps of delicious Dumplings. Would recommend this experience.

Chloe Bekiaris • May 2021

This was an awesome experience. My sister and I bought it as a mother's day gift. After making and drinking two delicious cocktails, our creative juices were certainly flowing. We made a plethora of dumplings under the instruction of our hilarious instructor. Each group got their own table, which I really liked. Then we were able to try the creations we made 3 ways: steamed, deep fried and pan fried. A delicious experience from start to finish! Thank you!

Friendly and AMAZING teachers Very tolerant and accepting of everyone.
Intimidating venue at first, and late to start which called for even more nerves, but TOTALLY worth the experience, friends, food and drinks. Amazing food, despite the fact that IIIII made it LOL.
Very much worth the pay, but don't turn up early and order early drinks, or drinks after that's how the getcha!
Taking home friends, lotsa dumplings, reiterated cocktail skills and a new attitude towards the world.
Overall, thankyou.

Jake Quade • Apr 2021

Class started promptly, we made great cocktails (not too sweet - I'm usually a whisky drinker but the lychee martinis were nice and subtle).

The dumpling making process was well explained, the instructor was friendly, helpful and patient. It all concluded with a great lunch of our own cocktails. It's a steal for the price, great for couples.

Kieran the teacher was incredible! We had such a fun time. The cocktails were fabulous and dumplings delicious. Can’t recommend this class enough.

Rowena Hallows • Apr 2021

Kieran was a fun,lively skilled teacher in this stylish venue . Mixology skills were trickier than we realised but now we feel confident to make the two delicious cocktails. We made two different types of dumplings and Kieran taught us three different ‘folds’ brilliantly! We had a giggle all the way through even though there was only us and another couple. The venue then cooked the dumplings three ways and provided yummy sauces vinegar etc to have with them and takeaway containers as we made ample. It was fantastic value and great funwe will be back!

Had a fantastic experience at the Honkas Bar Cocktail and Dumpling making class. Our teacher was friendly and accommodating and the class itself was a fun and educational experience. The final portion sizes were more than enough for us and tasted great!

We both enjoyed the vibe at the venue. Teachers gave clear instructions as well as they were friendly and funny. We found the place fairly easily and parking was not a problem.
We both liked the lychee cocktail but didn't like the "Cucumber mulled" one.
It was a fun great night and we have recommended it to our family and friends. Thank you for a lovely, enjoyable night.

Tanya Donald • Mar 2021

This was a fun experience and the drinks were nice - totally opposite tastes so my friend liked the first one we made while I preferred the second!

The dumpling recipes were great and I liked that they cooked them for us using three different methods so that we could have a nice dinner with a drink by the end of it - very nice touch!

A smaller class or an extra teacher would be an added bonus :)

Thank you team!

we had a very enjoyable afternoon with lots of fun. the only crtism i have is that no body we spoke to enjoyed the cucumber cocktail so maybe they could consider changng it as it seems a bit of a waste when so many were left. But overall great afternoon .

our teacher i think Keiran? was fantastic, he was very patient with us and spent time answering questions. he also made it alot of fun. the whole set up was great i could not fault anything on the day. i purchased this experience for everyone with us for a Christmas gift and they thoroughly enjoyed it.
we also received great service from all the other staff on that day and had a few laughs with the bar staff.

Cecile Kroes • Mar 2021

Nice venue. Fun teacher. Only downside I would say is that with the dumpling making it was too focussed on how to fold the dumpling not much else about making and cooking the dumplings.

Katrina Bridges • Mar 2021

Great experience and atmosphere. Delicious food would have preferred to start on time. Would highly recommend

This class was fun! We learned how to make 3 types of dumplings with 2 fillings, and two tasty cocktails. The instructor was fun, welcoming and clear. There was plenty of time to hang out and chat - if anything, I would have picked up the pace of the class a bit. We ended up with looooads of dumplings - bring a takeaway container!

Charlie Towers • Feb 2021

Michelle Horner • Feb 2021

It was a great way to spend a birthday celebration, as we got to drink the 2 cocktails we we taught to make and eat the dumplings. So it ended up being fun and good value. And a much better celebration than just sitting around a table eating dinner for a birthday.

A fun interactive class where you get to eat the spoils of your labour. Would reccomend as a fun date or hens idea.

Robert Bird • Feb 2021

Fantastic idea for a date night.
Enthusiastic teacher with a small class size.
Plenty of ability to just do your own thing but support is available when required.
Do not eat a large lunch if you're doing an earlier class, but they will let you take away any left over Dumplings.
Best value class in Sydney

Alyssa Ritchie • Feb 2021

We made so many we came home with dumplings for the next day.
Highly recommend great experience!

Overall really good experience!

Great value for money, easy to follow along and cool location with fun staff. Cocktail class combined with dumpling making was entertaining but not too difficult. Great date night or girls night out. Plenty of dumplings to take home too! The only small idea we would have loved to take a recipe card home for the cocktails and/or dumplings.

Jessica Takchi • Dec 2020

This class was great! Not only was it very organised but the staff were all lovely and fun. The set up for the dumplings made the process very efficient. Having many staff/chefs come up to us and show us different ways to fold them made the experience more enjoyable. Our teacher for the cocktails was great, relaxed and outgoing. Although it was a bit pricey, everything we received made it worth it. A very fun experience!

The staff were great and we had a really fun time.
They probably need to find a better way to label the dumplings and package half of them, too many to eat. It would have been nice if a reasonable serve was presented for us, rather than pile them high.
But I do recommend this experience.

We loved the venue, great spot in Kings Cross. Super convenient location and the staff were so lovely and accommodating. The class itself was so fun. The cocktail making was easy to follow and the teacher was lovely. The dumpling making was super fun too. We really enjoyed being hands on. The chef was such a lovely man who really took the time to show you how to make them properly and even when they turned out terrible he would have a laugh and show you again. We stayed for hours after the class and enjoyed the atmosphere and the dumplings we made. They were delicious! We chatted for hours with the friends we made from the class. Honestly we would do this class again in a heartbeat. Such a fun way to meet people and just have a laugh. Thanks again
