Taipei Ruoanlaittokurssit

It's a pineapple cake that you just mix, put in a mold, and bake. However, even mixing it required a bit of skill, and I enjoyed figuring out how to make it look nice when putting it into the mold. I also enjoyed talking with people from the same country.

instructor:Vivian was knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke fluent English. She was an excellent teacher location: close to Dr Sun Yat Sen memorial & arts/culture activities nearby. it was a fun activity! we got to make soup dumplings, chicken soup noodles & bubble tea from scratch and got to eat it for lunch as well. Highly recommend this foodie activity for all ages. You receive a certificate of completion of the cooking class as well as the recipes and pics of your experience at the end.

Varasimme tee se itse -kokemuksen, ja ohjaajat olivat kaikki niin ystävällisiä ja mukautuvaisia. Kokemus on rentouttava eikä lainkaan pelottava. Heillä on tilaa takin ripustamiseen ja laukun säilyttämiseen, ja heillä on vettä ja lämmintä teetä juotavaksi, jos haluat. Ohjaaja tarkistaa sinua aika ajoin ja auttaa sinua tarvittaessa. Työkalut ja märät ainekset on jo mitattu ja valmisteltu, ja minun tarvitsi mitata vain kuivat ainekset. Ohjeet ovat helppoja seurata, ja tekemäni ananaskakku maistui tuoreelta ja erilaiselta kuin yleiset ja edulliset, matkamuistoiksi ostettavat kakut. Maistui hyvältä vielä 3 päivän jälkeenkin! Kumppanini teki pippurisämpylät itse, ja istuimme yhdessä. He ottavat sinusta myös valokuvan, joka tulostetaan postikortiksi, ja takana on lueteltu ainekset. Suosittelen lämpimästi! Yksi suosikkitekemisistäni Taipeissa, ja kokeilen tätä varmasti uudelleen, kun palaamme.

I recieved the great experience. The instructor was kindly, friendly, humorous, and taught in a detailed and easy-to-understand manner. My classmates were also friendly and actively involved. Taiwanese food is the best😋😋

It was always my dream to take a cooking class while traveling abroad, and I finally made it happen. I was so grateful that they didn't cancel the class, even though I was the only one who booked today. The instructor was incredibly kind and made the class very enjoyable. Even though my English isn't great, they explained everything clearly. The market and neighborhood tour, along with the history lessons, were also really interesting. When I mentioned I don't like meat soup, they immediately adjusted the recipe for me. They said they would accommodate such requests even if there were multiple participants, so I encourage picky eaters like me to give it a try. Also, while daikon greens are usually discarded, they created a pickle side dish on the spot when I mentioned we eat them in Korea. They even prepared ice today, which they don't normally do, because a Korean traveler booked and they anticipated I might ask for an iced Americano. How thoughtful! I highly recommend this to other Korean travelers. They also diligently took many photos and videos throughout the class. The space itself is also very beautiful.

It was an amazing and unique culinary lesson experience! That morning, Sofia had just purchased unique local ingredients fresh from Hualien. They were all things I had never seen before. She tested me on a few to see if I recognized them, and it turned out I couldn't name more than half of them... LOL. Sofia explained Taiwan's indigenous culture, introducing the relationship between indigenous food culture and Taiwanese history. The most interesting part was that the menu for that day's class was determined by the suitable ingredients available that morning, meaning the content and dishes for each class might be different! Sofia was also very talkative and friendly. I'm an extremely introverted person, but I did feel welcomed at her place. Besides indigenous culture and food, I also chatted with her a lot about her travels and her feelings about life experiences. From her story, I gained the courage to pursue my dream. I am very grateful to Sofia for the wonderful afternoon she thoughtfully gave me. I hope to visit Hualien next time and experience a different Jialan Ke Kitchen! =)
