“I had eaten a late lunch which kind of spoilt my dinner but the restaurant was nice and so was the food. Highlight of the night is the Kung Fu show. The pearl market is only interesting if you like shopping and bartering for a lower price.”
Cook vegan Chinese dishes, shop a Beijing market, share tea at home, and learn local food traditions with host Sanxia.
“This was amazing! I did this cooking class back in September and it was such a great experience! I was the only person booking it that day, so we met a little earlier, went to the market together and bought all the vegetables fresh from there! Then, we went to Sanxia‘s apartment and cooked a lot of different dishes! It was really fun!! We all ate together and talked a lot. I actually ended up spending my whole day with Sanxia, her boyfriend Jürgen and their friends. It was my favorite day of my whole solo trip to Beijing, China ^^”
Pick a wall, a palace, a kitchen or a river.
