Make your own personalized mooncakes this Mid-Autumn festival (under the expert guidance of the Executive Chef and Dim Sum Chef at Yan Toh Heen of course). Inscriptions can include up to two Chinese characters of your choice on a pre-ordered mould.
The day will look something like this:
11:00AM - Fuel up with a late dim sum breakfast and freshly brewed Chinese tea. Chef Lau will use this time to introduce the ingredients that you'll be using for your very own custard cream moon cake.
11:30 AM - Watch Chef Po Ng first demonstrate to you how mooncakes are really made (so you feel just that much worse when yours comes out looking nothing like what it's supposed to).
12:00 PM - You're up. Good luck.
12:45 PM - Sample your own creation along with a selection of Yan Toh Heen's specialty moon cakes like the Iberico ham moon cake (?!) and double egg yolk lotus paste moon cake.
The class will take place Sep 10 (the deadline for booking is Aug 29), and can only hold up to 10 people so book early to secure your spot. It'll cost you HKD 988+10% for everything, including one personalized wooden mould set, a box of six custard cream moon cakes, the recipe to take home with you and a Yan Toh Heen Cooking Class apron.
