Recent reviews of Family Vegan Buns Class – Create, Twist and Steam Together
5/5 from Anna Kennedy, attended Apr 2026: My daughter and I had a brilliant time learning to make bao and spring onion twists. Hanna was very helpful when I was hopeless folding and also made my daughter a delicious bubble tea as an add on. We had loads of yummy buns to take home and share along with some chilli dipping sauce and kimchi that Hanna had made. I was also fascinated to learn about how different food traditions had arisen in different areas of China due to the geography and also control of salt.
