Living Cuisine

Established in 2008, Living Cuisine has offered Japanese cooking classes, Chinese cooking classes including Yum Cha cooking classes (Dim Sum Making) to over a thousand happy clients.

We are based in Windsor/Prahran, Melbourne, Australia.

Our classes are designed for people who are interested in Japanese and Chinese home cooking They are not aimed at chefs. Our approach is very hands-on and practical to boost participants' confidence to reproduce authentic dishes at home.

Classes are all one-day sessions. There are no pre-requisite classes or skills. They are conducted in a casual and relaxed environment in a state-of-the-art teaching kitchen. All classes are hands-on, so you will be preparing the food, not just watching a demonstration. We limit the size of the group to ensure personal attention to all participants.

A typical class commences with an introduction to the Japanese/ Chinese pantry, as well as a detailed explanation of the background and context of each dish and particular ingredients. Then all participants will be invited to put on their aprons and start the fun hands-on practice. They will be working together to prepare 3-4 dishes while demonstration and cooking instruction are given throughout the session. We ensure that every participant is given exposure to all the dishes. Then everyone get to enjoy a full sit-down lunch accompanied by specialty teas to crown your participation in the class.
