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.

I participated alone from Japan. The instructor spoke Japanese very well, so I was able to take the lesson with complete understanding of everything. Wrapping the xiao long bao was difficult, but it was a lot of fun! I am so happy to be able to make xiao long bao by myself. The bubble tea was also very delicious, and I learned the secret to the right amount of sugar when making it. The other participants were all wonderful people, and the lesson was held in a very pleasant and friendly atmosphere. I would love to take other lessons as well!

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.

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! =)

The weather was bad on the day we checked in – windy, rainy, and cold. We were initially worried about the walk from our campsite to the communal bathrooms, but the camp owner upgraded our room to one with a private bathroom and closer to the dining hall, which put us much more at ease. Thank you to the camp owner for their thoughtfulness ❤️. We loved the decor and style of both the campsite and our room. The tent interior and bathroom were very clean ☺️. Although the breakfast and dinner buffets didn't offer a huge variety of food, the taste was excellent, and the grilled skewers at dinner were fantastic. There was more than enough food to fill us up 😋. We hope for better weather next time so we can explore the campsite more 🤗.

It was a very nice and pleasant experience. It's a sunny day, we went there with a tour bus which walked us to the store itself, then we got given the 4-colour lantern and provided with black calligraphy pen to write our wishes, each colour represent a different area of life, e.g. health and wealth etc. We wrote our lantern inside the shop before going outdoor. There are staff using our phones to taking photos and videos of us on the train track and gave us poses to take pictures of the different sides of the lantern.

The studio was very easy to find, and the whole experience was well-organized. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, even for someone doing ring-making for the first time. The staff also made the process feel comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience, and I’m really happy with the ring I made!
