Top Pennsylvania Food & Drink Classes

I am all about sharing my knowledge and having fun with my students! Here are the experiences from my students: "I would definitely recommend this experience. Jinni is an awesome teacher, so patient and encouraging. She is passionate about cooking and sharing her experience and knowledge with her students. I took this class with my daughter and we both were so happy to be able to actually learn from a pro how to make delicious dumplings. Jinni was so welcoming and such a great host, sharing many stories about growing up in China and learning to cook there." "Jinni is warm and caring. Her beautiful home is inviting and we were put at ease immediately. Her personal stories and passion for cooking easily came through in her abilities and attention to details. She is knowledgeable about her craft and her love of teaching is easily noted. I would absolutely take another class with her. I now know how to properly make dumplings. No more frozen dumplings for me!"

Enjoy a private and authentic cooking class in a local State College home with your host Shawn. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local culture over food. On Saturdays during football season, pack up the food you've cooked and head to a tailgating party with Shawn and his friends at the football stadium. Shawn’s passion is to serve people food. Shawn’s love for food began as a child eating different cuisines as he grew up in a multicultural family. He has worked in the food industry for many years. It brings him joy to see people happy when they eat. Shawn now lives with five children and a loving wife that love when he cooks. Shawn went to school in State College which prides itself on being one of the best football towns in the country. American football is a big part of the culture of State College, home to Penn State University. Shawn is eager to share the food and culture of tailgating during this fun and unique food experience.
