About this Event
Nothing beats a home-cooked meal shared with family! And this is what inspires our Family Style Cookery Classes, a fun, laid-back homestyle cooking experience. Here, you will learn to prepare different dishes and then enjoy them with people who, like you, fuel our mission of supporting refugee and migrant chefs on their journey to integration. It’s a cookery class with a conscience, like they say!
Your class will be led by our wonderful Chef Lai Han from Hong Kong at the in Clerkenwell, London.
At our Family Style Cookery Classes, you will be grouped with other participants and prepare dishes together as a team. Think of Chef Lai Han as the head of the family! She will take care of dividing the class into groups, and each group will be responsible for creating one of the dishes. Of course, you are welcome and encouraged to move around during the class to learn about the other dishes being prepared. Throughout the evening, Chef Lai Han will share stories about their food and culture, and explain how to prepare each of the dishes so you come away with some new cooking tricks and inspiration from Hong Kong. You will also be emailed the recipes after the class.

A message from our Chef Lai Han:
“Hi My name is Lai Han and I am from Hong Kong, located in the southeastern part of China, where a mix of Eastern and Western cultures contribute to the diversity of food culture. Hong Kong has earned the title of the ‘Culinary Paradise” and offers a wide variety of food and international cuisines. My cooking classes are based on this culture, teaching traditional and popular food in Hong Kong.
I learned to cook from my mother and cooked for my younger siblings when I was seven years old. After I got married and had my own kitchen, I was so happy that I could try different cuisines. To me, cooking is definitely an alchemy, turning ordinary ingredients into delicious dishes. Cooking for my family and friends makes me very happy and I would love to share this joy with you”.
