Chinese Lantern Festival Workshop
The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month. It had become a festival with great significance in China as early as Han dynasty (206 bc-ad 25).
In Lantern Festival day, people light lanterns, get together with family and friends, eat TangYuan (the sticky rice dumpling in round shape which is specially made for this festival) and get prepared to go back to work from the long rest of Chinese New Year (NIAN).
In my Chinese Lantern Festival Workshop, we will:
1. Make a traditional Chinese lantern with high quality materials. On the golden paper, we will do Chinese calligraphic, draw and paint. Each participant will bring home a personalized lantern (with LED candle inside), which could contain his/her name in Chinese, the best wishes or other beloved elements.
2. We will prepare the TangYuan together, taste the sweetness after hard working and prepare for the brighter next day.
Come and join!

Hey~ This is Zoe. I moved from Shanghai to Krakow with my family.We've been visited many other countries around the world. No wonder, each time we enjoyed the local foods.However, there would always come out a wish of having some nice Chinese dishes after a while.I started to cook my first dish when I was a primary student. Yes, I was trying to find something interesting, meanwhile to comfort my stomach. And I made it! Since then, reading recipes and try to make different good tastes occupied lots of my spare times.With my husband and daughter being very responsible for his new project and her new school life, I'm spending tons of times making nice foods at home. I'd love to share them with all of you.

I have spent a wonderful evening with Zoe and Dustin. The Chinas homemade food was delicious from starters to desert. I personally adored cucumber with plum sauce – I can recommend to everyone. Also Multi-spiced beef shank served with Sichuan spicy oil and sesame sauce was my favorite one....

I personally adored cucumber with plum sauce – I can recommend to everyone.
Also Multi-spiced beef shank served with Sichuan spicy oil and sesame sauce was my favorite one.
The main Dish was also well prepared and very tasty. We had also occasion to see how Zoe is cooking – very learning experience. Zoe as a host is very attentive, the atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed – we felt as old friends…. In short resume : it was unforgettable dinner and it is 200% sure that I will come back to Zoe.

The dinner at Zoe’s was my first dinner with EatAway. And I couldn’t pick a better host to start my EatAway adventure with! The food was excellent! Zoe prepared a meal of 2 starters, 4 side dishes 2 main courses and a dessert – actually she made 2 desserts, a special one for me, as I am lactose intolerant – using traditional Chinese high quality ingredients. Additionally, Zoe is a very good and attentive host. I felt very relaxed at her home. I can sincerely recommend Zoe’s dinner for everybody who loves Chinese food.
Thank you, Zoe, for having me at your home. I wish you all the best and a fascinating adventure with EatAway!
