A propos de cette activités
Anna lives in an old building in a modest home in Gubei, known for being one of the safest and quietest neighborhoods in Shanghai. Anna says to make food tasty is not difficult but to make food both healthy and delicious is the challenge. She has successfully mastered this art and will share with you traditional Chinese dishes that she grew up eating that are not only delicious but also healthy.
Anna studied traditional Chinese medicine based food therapy for 10 years and says a proper diet can help cure chronic diseases. Before the existence of modern medicine, we solely depended on food, herbal medicine, and other natural methods to treat diseases and preserve health. Today Anna conducts various workshops and classes to teach the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine. Her work inspires many people worldwide to cook and eat healthy and she would love to share this with travelers as well.

Spending an evening with Anna at her home and learning how to make dumplings is one of my most memorable Shanghai experiences. Anna was so accommodating, she was happy to start her evening cooking class an hour earlier for me so I could be at the airport in time to catch a plane later that evening. Anna speaks excellent English and I enjoyed the evening in her company, sitting at her kitchen table as we chatted about our love for food and cooking. I learned how to make two fabulous dumpling fillings pork and celery, egg and chives and we then made and rolled out from scratch, color of the rainbow dumpling dough. Once steamed, we sat down together Anna knocked up an amazing salad of cucumber, tofu, mung bean and sesame dressing and we enjoyed dinner together. This was truly a special evening for me and if you are a foodie and would like to do something a little different while you are in Shanghai, I highly highly recommend this experience.
