Shanghai: Chinese Food Cooking & Mahjong Experience with A Local

8 hours (approximately)
Pickup offered
Offered in: English

We hope that orders can be placed at least 24 hours ahead of the cut-off time, so that we can have more time to prepare and ensure a pleasant experience for you. At noon, we will pick you up and drive you to a Chess and Cards Room to learn mahjong. The activity will last for about four hours. During the activity, our instructor will introduce the basic rules of mahjong and three core moves. Under his guidance, you will quickly get the hang of this game. Then, we will transfer to another location to attend a cooking class, which will last for about three hours. After booking, please leave us a message telling us which food you would like to make during the cooking class so that we can prepare materials accordingly. During the class, a local chef will instruct you to hand-make Chinese foods and introduce their cultural significance, helping you better understand Chinese culture. After the activity, we will drive you back to the original location.
