Description

Ring in the Lunar New Year with your team by cooking up these delicious traditional dishes guaranteed to bring you luck, joy, and happiness.

Process and timeline

From the moment you book to the moment the chef says hello.

  1. When you book

    Hold your date

    A $250 deposit reserves the date and comes off the total in full. Dates 2 weeks out book instantly; sooner than that, ask and we can often expedite.

  2. Within a day

    Your event planner gets in touch

    Every event gets a dedicated planner, at no cost. They shape it around your team — the menu, the timings, dietary needs, and the parts that make it yours.

    • Free customization of the menu and the run of show
    • Free engagement games to open or close the session
    • Extra cheers, toasts and shout-outs for birthdays, wins and farewells
    • Dietary adjustments for anyone who needs them

  3. A week before

    Your shopping list arrives

    Suggestions rather than a fixed list, so everyone can work with what is already in their kitchen. Bring your own produce, jars and whatever else you fancy putting up.

  4. Event day

    Everyone joins and the chef takes it from there

    One link, no software to install. Your planner is on hand in the background if anything needs sorting mid-event.

How to join

Default video platform

Zoom

  • Your event planner sends the Zoom link with your confirmation, and again the day before.
  • Prefer Microsoft Teams or Google Meet? Say so when you book and your host will run it there instead.
  • No account or download needed for guests — the link opens in a browser.

Things you'll need

Everything else is in the box we ship to each guest.

To join

  • A laptop or tablet with a camera
  • A stable internet connection
  • Somewhere to prop the screen where you cook

Kitchen equipment

  • A chopping board and a sharp knife
  • Mixing bowls — large and small
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • A large pan or skillet
  • A stove, and an oven if your chef calls for it

Also handy

  • Salt, pepper and cooking oil
  • A kitchen towel
  • Somewhere clear to work
  • An appetite

Bring your own

Nothing ships — you bring the ingredients

Shopping list
Sent ahead of the session, with suggestions rather than a fixed list — the point is to use what you already have.
Equipment
Whatever you cook with at home. Nothing specialised is needed.
Lead time
Short, and that is the advantage: with nothing to ship, this one can still make a date the others cannot.
Instant booking
Available for events at least 2 weeks out. Sooner than that, ask us — we can often expedite.

What guests said about this experience

Verified guest

As a cultural learner, I enjoyed how the Lunar New Year workshop invited us to explore its theme with curiosity rather than treating it as just another activity. Chef Emily created space for questions and shared thoughtful context, leaving me with a deeper appreciation for the experience. The team-building games led by Angel, our Zoom facilitator, were a fun way to keep everyone involved. I appreciated receiving fresh Whole Foods ingredients that were ready to use for the class.

Samira

Verified guest

As the group organizer, I loved how easy it was to get the Lunar New Year workshop underway and customize the details for our team. The virtual setup was smooth, Chef Emily kept everyone involved, and the event was genuinely fun from start to finish. Communication made the planning process easy. Angel, our Zoom facilitator, also kept the group laughing with quick team-building games.

Elena

Verified guest

We chose the Lunar New Year workshop because we wanted a team activity that felt connected to the occasion rather than generic. Chef Emily gave the session structure, personality, and plenty of opportunities for participation. The result was a memorable experience that gave our team something to enjoy and talk about together.

I had never tried anything like the Lunar New Year workshop before, but Chef Emily explained everything in simple steps and made it easy to join in. I was surprised by how easy it was to follow online, and I finished the session feeling more confident and proud of what I had learned.
