I just love Chinese food and enjoy cooking so I thought what could be better than to learn some stuff while over there. I read about this company - http://www.hutongcuisine.com/ and reckon I'm going to give it a go. The whole thing of visiting the market and picking out the food and then cooking an authentic recipe ticks so many of my taste bud boxes its droool time!!
Ling will be in work for the first week I'm there so will be exploring Beijing and Tianjin during the daytime.
This looks like something I'd really enjoy, anyone here tried it before or have something a little different they did that they would recommend to try out there?

Thanks Mike,
Maybe its the Irish blood in you, but I think we are reading from the same page here!
I'm all about doing stuff, hiking up mountains , sailing boats..thats the stuff i love. Of course meeting our wonderful nvpongyou's is the number one aim, but heck, i wanna have fun there too!
for me visiting somewhere new is all the more pleasurable when interacting with the culture and trying out new things. The cooking stuff ticks all the boxes in that regard, as would sailing or climbing mountains with Ling too.
30 days..am so excited i can barely stand it!
