Madlavningskursus i Taipei med oksekødsnudler, Lu Rou Fan og forårsløgpandekager

해외여행에서 쿠킹클래스에 참여해보는게 로망이였는데 드디어 실현했습니다. 오늘 예약자가 저 혼자인데도 취소하지 않고 진행해 주셔서 너무 감사했습니다.선생님께서 매우 친절하시고 재미있게 진행해주셨어요. 제가 영어가 서툰데도 쉽게 일려주셨어요. 시장 및 주변 투어와 역사 이야기도 정말 흥미로웠습니다. 제가 고깃국을 안좋아한다고 했더니 즉석에서 레시피를 수정해주셨어요. 여러명이 참여해도 이런경우엔 대처해주신데요.저처럼 편식하시는 분들도 도전해보세요. 그리고 평소엔 무청을 버리지만 제가 한국에선 먹는다고하니 즉석에서 레시피 만들어서 피클반찬이 됐습니다. 한국인이 예약해서 평소엔 없지만 오늘은 얼음을 준비하셨데요. 제가 아이스아메리카노 요청할까봐. 센스대박이죠. 한국여행객들도 꼭 도전해보세요 ㅎㅎ 사진과 영상도 틈틈히 열심히 찍어주신답니다. 공간도 너무 예쁩니다.

Be My Guest Taipei Cooking Class was a great experience, and Alex was an excellent host! I would wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone visiting Taipei who enjoys food, cooking food, and learning some cultural context along the way. Alex began the class by giving us a short tour of the Dadaocheng neighborhood of Taipei, including a neighborhood market. His cooking studio is very modern, aesthetically tasteful, and fully stocked. He provided fool-proof instructions on how to cook Taiwanese beef noodle soup, and it was such an interesting experience that the time just flew by. You make everything in the soup from scratch (including both the noodles and the broth), and the final product was absolutely delicious - perhaps even more so knowing that you make it yourself! After the class, you can simply walk down Dihua Street and check out the varied storefronts and the nearby Yongle Fabric Market. All worthwhile destinations in their own right.

Alex was super friendly! It was just me and my husband for the class. He brought us around Di Hua street, Taipei bridge and explained the history behind the area. We went to the wet market and even tried some snacks, he was friends with all the shop owners (whose been there for generations). Wont be ingredient sourcing at the wet markets since it’s all prepped in advance but more to understand local food and culture. But Alex was patient and understanding, defo knows the area well. Kitchen space was cosy and welcoming, clean and well organised. He used to be a service instructor in the aviation industry and pivoted during the pandemic. 10/10 would come back again to learn other dishes from him and support small local businesses! He also helped us take so many photos and videos :)

알렉스가 마을을 돌며 들려준 옛날 마을 이야기들과 터이완 옛이야기들, 시장투어를 하면서 사준 키친롤, 두부조림(?)도 맛났습니다. 아주 쉽게 잘 설명해주시네요. 요리도 재미나게 했습니다. 주방도 시원하고 아주 깨끗합니다. 중간중간 차 또는 커피도 주시고, 요리가 끝난 후 시식때에는 콜라, 맥주도 제공해주셨습니다. 대만 여행중에 뭔가 특별한 경험을 원하시는 분들께 적극 추천합니다.

it was really a fun learning experience cooking taiwanese food. even thought it was really raining hard that day we still enjoyed going around the neighborhood and the market.

This was more than just 'a step by step guide' on how to make noodles, but an experience to have. From walking the streets of Dadaocheng to the cooking table filled with ingredients, Alex was a good knowledgeable host whom we'd recommend anytime! good experience overall.

私は日本人ですが、英語も中国語もできなくて、翻訳器を持ち込みして参加しましたが、先生の日本語が上手で翻訳器は必要ありませんでした！　何も心配なく市場も楽しくガイドをしてくれて　何が良い食材なのかを教えてくれました　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　１人旅も初めてで、ましてや料理教室なんてハードルを高くしてしまったけど…めっちゃ楽しかったです！（もうすぐ60歳なのに）異国の人と異国の文化、同席したアメリカの方の優しさ、素晴らしい体験になりました　教室も広くセキリティもキチンとしています　包丁も切れが良いです　　　次は麺に挑戦したいです　残った料理は持ち帰りできるようにパッキンしてくれました(*^^*)　午前中から始まるので午後は、まったり迪化街とかも回れますよ！　後から先生が私達生徒の写真や動画を送ってくれ台湾の思い出が鮮明になりました　迷っているならぜひアレックス先生の教室へどうぞ(*^^*)

today, I cooked rice noodles and squid soup. Alex, our expert chef and tour guide was the best…He is very approachable and answers all my questions about all things Taiwan, it’s culture, and food history. I went to a traditional market where I got to learn about the different vegetables, meat, and spices used for Taiwan’s local dishes. The cooking space was very clean and inviting with all the equipment and supplies you need.Alex was a very great instructor and had all the patience to make sure I made my best dishes…I highly recommend everyone come here immediately!

We had a great morning with Alex learning the history of early Taipei’s DeDaoCheng neighborhood and the local markets that continue to today. The cooking portion was a lot of fun. Alex provided clear and easy to follow recipes make LuRou Fan (Braised Pork Rice) and a tasty Bittermelon side dish. We highly recommend this class and would love to take the other cooking courses time permitting.

牛肉麺のレッスンに参加しました。英語は苦手ですが、アレックスがとても親切に分かりやすく教えてくれます。街の歴史 、市場の散策、とても楽しかった!!!アレックスが写真をたくさん撮影してくれるので、料理作りに集中できます。
