I did the jian bing workshop with some of my friends in September. It was a ton of fun! I really enjoyed getting to make as many jian bings as I wanted and getting to both make the dough and cook it on the pan myself. I definitely needed a few tries to get the technique down, but it was so much fun and delicious! Also, the teacher was incredibly friendly telling us about the different ingredients and super helpful with showing us the technique. I'm super excited to try to make my own jian bings at home! I'm also a vegan, and I really appreciated that Our Beijing provided vegan options, especially having Just Egg since jian bings are usually made with an egg.
Dom taught a group of my daughter's middle school-aged friends and their parents how to make jian bing over the CNY holiday. It is a fun mid-day activity that sets you up with a full belly and the know-how for making this delicious Beijing street food staple at home. Thanks, Dom!
Me and my friends experienced Hutong adventure and jiangbing workshop. We had so much fun. And we would like to explore more! Highly recommended!
We took the kids last week during the break! Great fun and thoroughly enjoyed by all of us - would highly recommend!
We know that when we leave Beijing, one of the things we will miss is the local jian bing cart that can be found on many street corners. So, to help minimize that future feeling of "homesickness" we learned the secrets of a perfect batter and an array of fillings under the excellent tutelage of Dom from "Our Beijing". It was a great morning of fun with friends, very child-friendly, and delicious to boot!
