What you can expect

Step into a home-style kitchen in Shanghai and learn to make authentic pan-fried buns, known locally as Shanghai Shengjian Bao. Guided by experienced chefs and an English Translator, start by preparing the ingredients, then proceed to knead the dough and craft the perfect filling.

Feel the warmth of every step, from shaping the buns to pan-frying them to a golden, crispy perfection. Discover the essence of this century-old Shanghai delicacy, with its crispy base and tender, juicy filling.

These buns feature a golden-brown crispy bottom, while the top is garnished with sesame seeds and chopped scallions. They are aromatic, filled with savoury soup, and highly favoured by the locals. The finished product is soft and fluffy, with tender, juicy meat filling and rich broth inside. When eaten, they offer a pleasant combination of sesame and scallion flavours. It is best to consume them while they are hot, right after cooking.

Whether you’re travelling solo or with friends, this hands-on experience is perfect for anyone eager to master the art of making Shanghai’s beloved pan-fried buns.
