4月12日下午，来自泰国、意大利、韩国和冰岛等15个国家的25名国际学生参加了我们的“中国烹饪工作坊”文化实践活动。两位华东理工大学厨师教授了“宫保鸡丁”和“中式潘饼”的详细步骤。教程结束后，五组学生分组制作自己的菜肴。工作坊结束时，厨师根据口味和综合表现选出了获胜团队。

This immersive experience, from cutting vegetables to stir-frying, from dazzling seasoning to determining the "right amount", every step is a "delicious" fresh memory for international students. The students appreciated the opportunity to learn authentic Chinese food.

“Thank you very much to all teachers, chefs and staffs for organizing the good event and inviting us to participate. It has been funny to make Chinese food and snack. All dishes are delicious. I’m so happy to join this event especially seeing all together and having seeing the prettiest smiles on all faces.”

——PHUSSADEE HAWACHARAPORN from Thailand

“I enjoyed cooking traditional Chinese meals with professional chefs. I believe food is so much more than just fuel for your body, it builds bridges between cultures and gives insight into one’s background. Food is tradition, celebration, connection, and so much more. Very beautiful experience.”

“Being a cooking lover and participating for the first time in a cooking activity was too much fun for me since you see how people from different countries have different ways and techniques to cook a meal, and the activity made me talk with other students and get to know them, their favourite Chinese dishes, and the local ones.”
