Cooking Class - Authentic American-Chinese Cuisine

What You’ll Do

Learn six Chinatown-inspired recipes so you can recreate your personal favorite Chinese-American fare.

American-Chinese food is firmly rooted in the immigrant neighborhoods of San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and other major cities. In this cooking class, Chef Linda will introduce you to many of the "classic" dishes enjoyed today that began as simple fare over 150 years ago.

Begin by learning basic culinary prep work and knife skills so you can quickly prepare a buffet of favorites, including crunchy egg rolls with homemade sauce, wonton or hot and sour soup, and two entrées of your choosing accompanied by lo mein noodles or fried rice.

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

My husband and I really enjoyed our time with Chef Linda. She was pleasant, let us do all the prep work (with some demonstrations), mixing and cooking. Love that she was patient and offered helpful tips "tricks of the trade" so to speak, and provided all the recipes to follow. We really enjoyed the spring rolls with peanut sauce and feel much more confident remaking some of the dishes at home. The Vietnamese meatballs were absolutely delicious!!! Chef Linda accommodated my request to eliminate cilantro from my servings but allow my husband to have as much cilantro as he'd like. We never felt rushed and enjoyed her sharing her knowledge of cuisines and where dishes, ingredients came from. She also did all the clean-up which was such a nice treat! We are looking forward to having another cooking class with her in the near future. Wish we had taken some photos because the food turned out delicious and Chef Linda set up the dining room table so beautifully.
