Thank you so much Jerry and Matthew for the educational and fun trip to the market and cooking class. I learned so much and felt like I made new friends. I have taken cooking classes all over the world and this was by far my favorite. I’m already planning a trip back.
Very nice

Everyone was nice and accommodating. The guide Lance was very knowledgeable and spoke great English, and I did not have any problems despite speaking little Mandarin. The food we cooked was bountiful and tasty.

After reading so many positive reviews, I was really excited to join this cooking master class, so I booked and paid in advance. However, the day before the class I got sick. I’m very grateful to the organizers for allowing me to reschedule and for adjusting the format to my personal request, as I was still not fully recovered and felt very weak. They did a great job. My situation showed how truly customer-oriented they are and how much they care about guests’ needs. We also had a wonderful guide, Litchi, who took us to the market, explained the ingredients, and even taught us how to play mahjong. It was unexpected, but incredibly interesting.

The host Lance was very friendly and welcoming, explaining about the ingredients used in Sichuan cuisine. So interesting! Mrs. Li was also very welcoming and experienced. I had a superb experience learning about the techniques of preparing the dishes, expending my background about Sichuanese cuisine, as well as knowing such good people as Lance and Mrs. Li. Totally recommend!

I absolutely loved this morning-one of my favourite things I did in China. We started the morning with a walk through local neighbourhoods and a food market with Jerry explaining food and food culture in the area, we then went back to prepare a series of delicious dishes and sat down to eat them together. Jerry was a wonderful guide with a great sense of humour and was very happy to answer all of our many questions. I’d highly recommend this activity.
Great Insight about Sichuan culture and great food!

ChilliCool China is a small business that offers authentic tours in english including this Sichuan cooking class. I got a private tour with Lance as I was the only one that day. The market visit gave a great insight to the ingredients of Sichuan cuisine and Lance was able to share a lot of knowledge, including about the regions of origin of the ingredients, and where to try them. We had great conversations during tea break and of course the cooking class itself was amazing, everything turned out incredibly tasty and Lance didn't only read out recipes but also explained how to use the ingredients in other recipes. He also gave great suggestions for other things to try in Chengdu. I recommend booking through the ChilliCool website directly, for a cheaper price and direct support to the business

My family of four (including two teenagers) took this class in November 2026, and it was easily one of the highlights of our entire trip to Chengdu. If you are looking for a hands-on way to experience the local culture, I highly recommend this. We started with a tour of a local market to shop for ingredients, which was a great immersion into daily life here. Our guide, Lance, was excellent. He speaks fluent English and was incredibly helpful in bridging the language gap, translating the chef’s instructions from Mandarin for us since we aren't fluent. The cooking portion was very well organized. We cooked six dishes in total, and the instruction was top-notch—easy to follow even for the teens. The food turned out tasty, and we particularly loved making the classic Mapo Tofu. We were worried it might be too hot, but it was prepared not too spicy, which was perfect for us. The whole team was friendly and welcoming. It was a fun, educational, and delicious way to spend a half-day. Don't hesitate to book this if you are in Chengdu!
