When I lived in Hong Kong, not far from my apartment in Pokfulam is the Chinese Cuisine Training Institute. From 10AM -2PM from Monday to Friday, the class includes a brief introduction to the history and culture of Chinese cuisines and the various cooking methods of the many regions. I regret that I learned about this well known establishment just as I was about to leave Hong Kong but my friends had only praise for the emphasis on teaching. The minimum in each class is ten and the price in CDN is about $100.
