What to expect
Meet Your Hosts
We're Nina, Yang and Alan, three Shanghai locals who bond over good food. We started Shang Kitchen because we wanted to share what Shanghai tastes like, not the restaurant version, but the home version.
About the Experience
Your afternoon starts at our local market, where we pick fresh ingredients together. Back in the kitchen, you’ll make three iconic Shanghai home dishes from scratch: handmade dumplings, scrambled eggs with tomato, and smashed cucumber salad.
Then we enjoy it all together, paired with Chinese herbal tea.
Venue Market: 304 Wuyi Rd Kitchen: 198 Zhaohua Rd
You'll make three iconic Chinese home dishes from scratch.
Come with your friends, or come alone and make new ones. Either way, you're leaving full and happy.
Every step is hands on. You fold, you stir, you plate!
Enjoy your food with Chinese herbal tea.
We hope you'll enjoy cooking and delicious food as much as we do!
