In this hands-on Montreal cooking class, you’ll discover authentic Mauritian flavors and techniques passed down through John’s grandmother’s family recipes.
Over the course of about an hour, learn how to prepare 1–2 traditional dishes such as Mauritian-style dim sum, dumplings, or spring rolls, while John shares stories about his heritage, the island’s rich blend of cultures and life in Canada. Discover the ingredients, folding methods, and cooking techniques that make Mauritian dim sum special.
After the class, relax and enjoy the delicious meal you helped prepare, paired with engaging conversation about Mauritian cuisine and life in Montreal. This is an authentic culinary experience perfect for travelers who love learning about global food traditions. Vegetarians are welcome, and John can adapt the dishes to your dietary preferences.
