“The Canto Cooking Club improved my cooking skills in various ways, from cutting techniques to preserving your groceries and controlling the heat of the wok. The online course modules allow me to learn at my own pace, and I also appreciate the opportunity to interact with Daddy Lau and fellow chefs.”
ShirleyLearning at her own pace
As an only child of immigrant parents from Guangzhou and Toisan, growing up near Chicago's Chinatown, I found a special connection to the Made with Lau channel. Hearing Daddy Lau's voice brought back memories of my late grandparents who used to cook these meals for me. My dad, a chef like Daddy Lau, isn't patient enough to teach me, so I'm truly grateful for Randy's efforts to preserve Cantonese language and recipes. The Canto Cooking Club improved my cooking skills in various ways, from cutting techniques to preserving your groceries and controlling the heat of the wok. The online course modules allow me to learn at my own pace, and I also appreciate the opportunity to interact with Daddy Lau and fellow chefs. I highly recommend the Canto Cooking Club to anyone, regardless of their experience level, who wants to enhance their cooking skills and connect with like-minded food enthusiasts globally.
