Jim L posted a review on Yelp on 2/1/20: "I attended a dumpling making workshop with my wife and seven-year-old son. Apple is a charming and knowledgeable host. The class is really well-organized and broken into parts. First you shop for ingredients at a market in Chinatown. During this part she shared interesting facts about the neighborhood and the Dumpling making process.... Back at her space she kept everyone busy with different dumpling making tasks. After a while we broke broke into groups and each group worked on making dumplings of various shapes with homemade dough and with pre-made wrappers. This gives everyone a chance to experience the dough making process but also to be able to make a really nice amount during the allotted time. The Space is really beautiful and had plenty of room for a large group. My son was super excited the whole time and Apple did a great job of paying attention to him without letting him dominate the class that was otherwise populated by adults. I cannot stress enough what a great job she did of making everyone feel at home! Really really fun from start to finish and the final product was delicious! We had enough where everyone there was super full and still had a nice helping of dumplings to take home. I would highly, highly recommend this class for all ages!"

Review from our past guest who took our dumpling making class: Lynn LynnAugust 2019 If you are looking for a family friendly experience, I highly recommend Apple’s dumpling making class. She has a sunny attitude that immediately made my family welcome. She planned the experience from start to finish, and guided us along the way. She had a few helpers who were able to provide hands on support, and all members of the class were engaged. My son speaks conversational Chinese, b...ut doesn’t get to practice very often, so he is shy about participating in conversations. Apple encouraged him to have a conversation with her and her helpers. This made the experience extra special. I had the opportunity to learn a new skill and also watch my son interact with friendly people. My heart was filled with pride because Apple and her helpers were so genuine and kind. The dumplings were fantastic! So glad my family learned how t make two varieties. Can’t wait to make them on my own at home. See more

SATURDAY Come celebrate the Lunar New Year at the Rail Park Saturday (2/9) from Noon to 4PM! It’s going to be a beautiful day and we’ve got all an amazing l...ine up of events/vendors coming out to make this a really special day. The Philadelphia Suns will be doing a lion dance at 2PM. You can try your hand at some calligraphy with Five Spice Philly. And if your hands get too cold you can warm them up with a cup of fresh coffee from Càphê Roasters. If your hands still need something to do they can hold all sorts of food from QT Vietnamese Sandwich & Brotherly Grub. We’ll also be selling some brand new gear to support the park. We’ve got tee shirts, some dope pull over sweatshirts, baby onesies, and tote bags. So come out and have some fun, swing on the swings, chat with your neighbors and stretch those legs a bit!

Review from our past guests: Jamie Jamie December, 2018... Apple was an incredible instructor! She was very knowledgeable about dumplings and her neighborhood, being an ambassador of Chinese Dumpling making with Reading Terminal Market. She clearly listens to feedback and is eager to make the class as personalized as possible. The class my sister and I attended was in an upscale restaurant which was great because there was a lot of room for us to work. We cannot wait to try and recreate the dumplings for our family in the New Year! See more
