What is Dim Sum? Originating from Cantonese cuisine, Dim Sum (點心) refers to a variety of small, bite-sized dishes traditionally enjoyed with tea. Often served in bamboo steamers and baked trays, these delicate dumplings, buns, and rolls are packed with bold flavors and rich history. Dim Sum is more than just food—it's a social experience, bringing people together to share and savor an assortment of delicious dishes.
In this hands-on session, you’ll master the art of:
Shrimp Dumplings (Har Gao) – Learn how to create the delicate, translucent dumpling wrappers and fill them with a perfectly seasoned shrimp mixture.
Baked BBQ Pork Buns (Char Siu Bao) – Soft, slightly sweet buns filled with savory, caramelized BBQ pork, then baked to golden perfection.
Steamed Custard Buns (Nai Wong Bao) – Fluffy, pillowy steamed buns filled with creamy, silky custard that melts in your mouth.
Throughout the class, you'll gain insider tips and techniques, from perfecting dough textures to folding dumplings like a pro! Plus, enjoy a fun and interactive environment where you can ask questions, connect with fellow food lovers, and, of course, taste your delicious creations.
No prior experience is needed—just bring your love for good food and a willingness to learn! Reserve your spot now and get ready to impress your friends and family with homemade dim sum.
This a perfect Dynamic Duo class to take with your friends, family members or a sweet Date Night and you can BYOB! (Please drink responsibly.)
This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:
YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child
YES: Couples (live in the same household)
YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)
*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two people sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself! On Chef/Date Nights you will always have enough for two and generally extra to bring home too.
We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.
Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
