The art of Yum Cha which consists of taking tea, catching up with friends and eating tasty bite-size morsels, has long been a popular Cantonese style of dining.

Yum Cha culture started thousands of years ago when tea houses opened to provide traders with a well earned place of rest and some sustenance while they traveled along the Silk Road.

Dim Sum restaurants serve a never ending parade of goodies on their carts from dawn to dusk all over the world.  We have gathered an amazing array of snacks to “touch the heart” in this delightful class.

Professional Dim Sum chefs today, train and practice for years to perfect folding and pleating. But in this class, combining long-established Dim Sum methods with our own techniques will enable you to easily create amazing flavours and textures at home. You’ll soon be enjoying the social aspect of this style of eating, which is as important as the food on offer.
