We booked Cristina for a corporate dumpling making class and she was absolutely amazing. It was super easy to book her in, she was helpful and attentive when we were making the dumplings. She is an amazing teacher and i would 100% book her again

Cristina was a very passionate and engaging teacher, knowledgeable about every step of the process, even explaining the food science behind stirring ingredients in one direction!

Loved this class. Cristina was great, she took us through the process seamlessly and kept it fun and interesting. The pace was good, the scale of the class made it easy to socialise. The food we made was so good, I really want to make it again at home soon, and the dinner/drinks provided was also delicious

Today we had Christina’s spring menu which shouldn’t be confused with the winter menu that features the crowd pleaser beef noodle soup.

Cristina is an enthusiastic and engaging cooking instructor. Each cooking stage was explained well. I particularly adored the texture of the spring onion pancakes and the dough rolling technique used to create layers. Take home recipes were provided. We closed the class with a filling and appetising meal.

I had a great time with the lovely Cristina. She was very welcoming and bubbly, creating a fun atmosphere in the cute and intimate Brunswick Kitchen.

This was a comprehensive workshop on Asian pastry making. Cristina broke down the learning for us really well by demonstrating each step before we made our attempts.
