Dim Sum Making at The Pen

The Peninsula Hotel kindly offered again some cooking session at their hotel for our campers this summer. The kids were all delighted with this unique opportunity of visiting this five star establishment and mastering the art of Chinese dim sum making from the hotel’s signature Chinese restaurant, the Spring Moon.

The Children were able to see and experience the entire process of dim-sum making within the hotel’s kitchen including how they are steam or baked. They discovered the ingredients used to make them as well as their measurements.

Chef Yip, who supervised the children throughout the 3 day's event, was also demonstrating and cooking more than 4-5 varieties of dim sum for the kids to try themselves. After a few minutes demonstration, it was time to show off their young talents. Chef Yip was thoroughly impressed with their abilities and commented that they were indeed very creative!

While cooking the dim sum was a fabulous experience, eating them was even better! The children naturally had a taste of their own works but all would have happily taken their portion home for mom to try!

All the staff ‘s enthusiasm and warm welcoming were heart-warming and we would like to say a BIG thank you to everyone at the Peninsula Hong Kong especially Lamey Chang & Chef Yip for this memorable event.
