Great course
I really liked Meilan Kao's teaching and the explanations are very detailed. The supplementary material is very enlightening. However, I missed the Xiao Long Bao recipe - I find this dumpling quite challenging, I've made it a few times but haven't managed to get it completely right yet. It would be great if there was part 2 of the Dim Sum course ;D
