Cooking Class: Make Traditional Dumplings With Chef Spencer
This cooking class is a fantastic introduction to Southeast Asian cuisine through one of its most iconic dishes: dim sum.
Chef Spencer will guide you through the art of making traditional Asian dumplings, small bites of heaven that blend bold flavors and ingredients wrapped in steamed or pan-fried dumpling skin. You'll learn all the basics, from dumpling folding techniques to steaming and frying methods. The best part comes when you start making the filling. After mastering the deliciously flavored traditional pork and shrimp filling, you'll be well-equipped to add your unique touch to the fillings and remix the flavors to your liking.

I've had the pleasure of attending several cooking classes with Chef McMillin, and each one has been a fantastic experience! After attending one of his cooking classes in 2018 for the first time, I was extremely impressed... and as a self-proclaimed foodie, I've gone to many cooking classes. Chef McMillin immediately stood out. He creates an environment where everyone feels comfortable. Chef McMillin has a rare combination of expertise and a down-to-earth, personable approach. What also sets him apart outside of his phenomenal skills as a chef and instructor, is his ability to make each class enjoyable and accessible for all skill levels. Attending his classes felt like cooking with a friend rather than being in a formal classroom setting. I wholeheartedly recommend Chef McMillin
