A Warm Welcome
Step into our cool London kitchen and discover the comforting world of Asian buns. In our small, friendly classes, you'll get a warm welcome and a fascinating introduction to the three delicious styles you'll be mastering today: bao, steamed, and pan-fried.

Recent reviews of Family DimSum Class: Make Bao, Steamed and Pan-Fried Buns Together
5/5 from Yilea Galligan, attended Aug 2026: Went with my children aged 20, 17, and 13 years. We all had a great time and we all thought the teachers were lovely. This is very rare. Would whole heartedly recommend the bao making class as a family activity. We all said we would go again to another class.
