The Language of Chinese Food – Dumplings
Perhaps everyone has tried Chinese pot stickers at a Chinese restaurant, but did you know that authentic dumplings in China are very different from the ones you have tried here? In this course we will learn different traditional recipes through the Chinese language. If you like Chinese food and want to expand your food vocabulary in Mandarin, please come to our class!
We do not have any sessions available at the moment. Please check back for future updates.
