Good school, good location. Stayed in an apartment provided by the school which was also very good and just a few minutes walk from the school. Lots of restaurants, a supermarket and a lively night market just around the corner. Lots than 50m to the entrance of a metro station and bus stop. So this is a perfect place to lean Mandarin. They teach both simplified and traditional characters whichever you prefer.

The host was very friendly and patient in conducting the cooking class, and we had lots of fun with the hands-on making of xiao long bao. She was also very helpful in introducing us to the different kinds of tea unique to Taiwan with an elaborate tea ceremony appreciation, and we enjoyed ourselves! Highly recommended for couples and also travelling individuals who are interested to try their hand at learning about Taiwan’s culinary and tea culture. It was a fruitful and enjoyable 4 hours spent!

The best thing about 3 leafs is that you get to know the person behind the brand. If you’re looking for the best gift to bring home to your family and friends, here’s the place. Nancy truly has a love for the tea community and you should hear her story - it’ll move you! On a personal note, I’ve attended 2 tea tasting workshops held at 3 leafs and Nancy does solid work in lesson preps. Her engaging personality makes this subject matter come alive! The sort of connections you establish with the others participants is the sort that makes you want to return for more. I’ve also tried their lunch pop-up on an occasion with my boyfriend! We both really enjoyed the food! I think it’s a great choice if you have a large party cus Nancy handles all private events personally and you can make sure that all your needs are met :)
