Reviews
The two master craftsmen were quite witty and humorous, and they took great care of the children. They were also very patient in teaching the adults. Eating and learning at the same time, the children felt very happy.
we had the best time learning traditional techniques on dim sum making! the chefs were super welcoming and funny to talk to, we had the most enjoyable time trying out the food too. would 100% reccoment everyone to have a go !
The session exceeded my expectations. I had expected that the classes were an afterthought but my experience was that of a company serious about sharing the art of dim sum making to her guests. the instructors were very experienced award winning chefs, held in a purpose built cooking studio within the restaurant. The recipe for the dough was so good that even with my amateurish effort tasted amazing. important cheffy tips on how to “mix” the dough to produce “sou” ie no gluten, using chopsticks to prop the turtles neck during baking, making centre of gravity on chicken stable , decorating your bake etc, seasoning and method use to prepare excellent texture on wonton filling. And the pleasant surprise, we get to keep our aprons, they fed us! They were churning out a few other dim sum. while waiting for our bake, we learnt our mini skills not listed on the lesson (rolling sesame paste roll). Highly recommend this experience
The early bird special was a great deal! I originally thought we'd only make two kinds of dim sum, but the chef kept making different ones for us to try. Chef Kwong, in particular, really loves kids, and everyone had a wonderful time.
It was so much fun, with activities and food! Both instructors were very dedicated to teaching, and the atmosphere was excellent. They also prepared many small snacks for us, and we even received certificates. Highly recommended! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This dessert-making class was an excellent experience! The instructor was professional and patient, and every step was clear and easy to understand. The desserts I made by hand were not only beautifully presented but also surprisingly delicious. The whole process was a lot of fun, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning traditional crafts. It's definitely a high-quality course not to be missed!
The experience at Maxim's Dim Sum Classroom was excellent! The master chef taught us with great care, and we made beautiful dim sum. My mom and I had a lot of fun. I highly recommend everyone participate; the dim sum class content is very rich and practical!
I'm very satisfied with this course. Everyone, including the two instructors and the teaching assistants, was very approachable. The atmosphere was great, and they answered all our questions. Besides learning a lot, I believe all the students left feeling happy and fulfilled.
The instructor was dedicated and humorous, explaining everything clearly and understandably. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic. This dim sum class offers great value for money and is highly recommended.
Chef Wu and Summer truly made this an exceptional experience! They share their passion and knowledge in a wonderful atmosphere; time flies by, and the food is delicious!
