We’ll send you home with dumplings you made, along with a recipe card and all the tips and tricks you need to host your very own dumpling party!

See What Our Customers Say

Our MegaFoodies had such a great time at Mei Mei’s Virtual Dumpling Class! Winson’s instruction and commentary was fun and engaging - we didn’t realize we would make so many cool shapes and they had unique stories to each! They made it so easy and scalable for us to do this with our employees and delivered a MEGA experience for our team. We are truly grateful for their efforts and can’t wait to do another class!
— Ashley Larochelle, Vision Activation Director, Megafood
Our company recently celebrated the launch of a few new products - something we would typically do in person after months of hard work. Mei Mei did not disappoint! In fact, we were able to celebrate with more employees than we may have originally been able to, as some of our remote, out-of-state colleagues could purchase their own ingredients + join the call. The team had so much fun cooking together, learning different dumpling folds, experimenting with fillings, and ultimately ending up with a delicious meal. We can’t thank the awesome group at Mei Mei enough. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a unique special event!
