Go beyond tasting Xiamen’s local food by learning to cook it yourself. This hands-on class starts in the buzzing Bashi (Eighth Market), where your host helps you choose fresh seafood and local ingredients, then it's into the kitchen to make 3-4 Minnan (southern Fujian) classics: the famous oyster omelette (haili jian), satay noodles (shacha mian) and a local dish — before sitting down to feast. It's beginner-friendly and relaxed, with your English-speaking host guiding each step, so no experience is needed. A warm, sociable and authentically local half-day for food lovers, couples and families, with recipes to take home.
