It's very interesting and fun. Although you can only pull one scallion, you can take it home. The old man is very interesting, and the DIY teacher is great, quick, and efficient. The experience is fun and worthwhile.

We were late but the instructor was kind enough to let us to take the class. We had fun making mochi but to me, the fillings were very sweet, I guess it is how dessert supposed to be.

I originally thought this DIY cooking experience would be challenging, but to my surprise, the store had already prepared the dough for us 😧. All we had to do was poke, knead, flatten, and use the tools to press out our desired shapes, and finally sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese powder 🧀. There's no limit to the amount – just fill up the whole sheet! The entire process only took about 10 minutes 🤣. I recommend this to anyone who wants to try something new but doesn't want to put in too much effort 😍.

The instructor teaches step by step, it's not difficult at all, and children can quickly pick it up. I suggest thinking about what you want to draw beforehand so you don't spend too much time drafting. Overall, the atmosphere is great and relaxing. I look forward to receiving the finished product in three months.

Ordering Yummy Meet DIY through Klool is convenient and the price is cheaper than on-site. The teacher's explanation is clear and patient. The environment is good and you can sample many cookies. Kids love it and the fact that there's no admission fee makes it a great shopping attraction.

It's really cool to DIY scallion pancakes, kneading the dough yourself and adding Yilan Sanxing green onions. Making scallion pancakes for the first time is truly fulfilling. There are also small animals to visit; they provide feed for us to give them. The park has many photogenic spots, and the scenery is beautiful. There are quite a few animals inside.

This classroom is located in a very remote mountainous area. Colleagues who are driving, please be careful. This is a top-choice itinerary for a rainy day 🍕! Not only can you assess any shortcomings in your culinary skills, but you can also promote tacit understanding and test the chemistry with your partner 😍.

This potted plant I made cost $1280 (including the plants). The figurines are extra, and you can add more at an additional cost for any difference. The owner seems like she used to be a very "socialized" person; her words and actions show great attention to detail, making you feel like she's someone special. I originally did a terrible job, not knowing that succulents could be arranged so densely. After the owner's skillful transformation, it became amazing! I'm very grateful to her. Buying the experience through Klook, combined with LINE shopping, is a great deal, and the price is actually the same as on-site (you have to pay a $50 entrance fee on-site, which can be used towards the DIY project or plants, but it's basically the same if you make a purchase). It's definitely worth buying because I learned a lot about succulents in this class, and the entire layout process was very therapeutic. Although only the cement part of the pot was made by the owner, the rest seems to be imported from mainland China. It's a pity I didn't see what I saw in other reviews, but it depends on your luck. At least I got the plant I really wanted, so I'm very happy.
