Class Experience

In this class, we are going to visit a "mini-museum" about Chinese FOOD culture!

Agenda:
1. Ice-Breaker
2. Ancient Chinese Food
3. Table Manners/Etiquette
4. Tablewares: Spoon, Bowl, and Chopsticks
5. China's 8 Cuisines, Famous Dishes, Hotpot
6. Chinese Drinks
7. Chinese Snacks
8. Chinese Street Food
9. Kahoot! Game

Description:
This class starts with an interesting ice-breaker! The first part of the class will be a 25-30 minutes slideshow. I will talk about the food in ancient China, such as what was the food like in ancient China, and what was the difference between the emperor's food and the other people's food? Then, I'll talk about Chinese table manners and tableware (ex. how to use chopsticks properly). In different provinces and cities, people have different dining etiquette. Next comes the eight famous cuisines. There are a total of 23 provinces in China, eight of which are famous nationwide for their cuisine. I will also teach you some Chinese food names, which you can try at Chinese restaurants! Then I will talk about the Chinese drinks, snacks, and street food! Each place in China has its signature street food. For example, Guangdong's egg waffle, Beijing's tanghulu (candy fruit), Shanghai's fried buns, and so much more! At the end of the class, there will be a 15-minute Kahoot game. This game will give students a deeper impression of what they have learned in class. 

Notice: This is not a cooking course, it is just a cultural course for students to know more about Chinese food :)
