Chef Janet was terrific. We did a dumpling making class as a family bonding experience. We had 5 kids ages 17, 18, 18, 20, 22 and four parents and we all had a great time. Chef Janet brings everything and we all worked around the island in our kitchen. We made 2 types of dumplings and a sesame seed / red bean paste dessert. So delicious and fun. You should arrange a class with Chef Janet!!!

Janet was amazing and super engaging. She is a great conversationalist. I’m not a huge talker, but she was keeping the conversation going by with the other people in my group.
