Originally from the dumplings master forge in Shandong in northern China, Cici has been living in Shanghai for the past 23 years, raising a family, and teaching homestyle Chinese cuisine in her cooking school. In the mid-to-late ‘10s she was teaching the dumpling arts to mainly tourists, a few emerging celebs, and even a few professional international chefs searching for xiaolongbao secrets to take back with them to their home countries. Recently, she's back offline and has relaunched her offline classes. She does a lot of different ones but her main ones are the xiaolongbao classes and the "colorful dumplings" class, which is rainbow dim sum in dazzling shapes and Starburst colors. She offers intimate, personalized classes for newcomers to the dumplings arts and Shanghainese cuisine. Great for groups of friends looking for a fun weekend activity, out-of-town guests, dates, and anyone looking for an interesting and rewarding encounter with Chinese cooking.

Hi Everyone, this is CiCi, I have nearly 10 years experiences for doing cooking classes, and I am very happy to share Chinese food culture with friends around the world.

What I do most is a cuisine called Xiaolongbao. In my experience i feel that the whole world is attracted by Shanghai Xiaolongbao. They come here to know how such delicious soup is poured into a small steamed bun. During those times, I received many nice people's visits, including world famous models, singers and dancers, novelists, and the chefs who cooked for 4 Presidents of the United States. I think I am "making friends with the world with Xiaolongbao".

During the epidemic, I switched to online teaching, so people from all over the world could see it and i was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of people.
However, what I am good at is not just Xiaolongbao. If you are looking for a fun and authentic Chinese cooking experience, please join our cooking events!
