The Half-Day Yangshuo Cooking Lesson Small Group Tour is a roughly four-hour cooking class in Yangshuo County, in China's Guangxi region, offered by a local Yangshuo host and sold through the byFood platform. The listing does not name the host business or say how long it has been running, so no history is given here. The meeting point in Yangshuo is sent to guests after booking. The lesson is run for a small group, with the price listed from about ¥742 (roughly $110 USD) per person and varying with group size, which places it at the higher end of Yangshuo's cooking classes in exchange for a smaller class and more individual instruction. A local host teaches the group to prepare Yangshuo home cooking, and the half-day ends with a meal of the dishes prepared. The listing does not give an exact dish count or a savoury-to-sweet split, but regional home cooking in Yangshuo is predominantly savoury, with freshwater fish, local vegetables, rice and stir-fried dishes the typical staples. Included are the small-group lesson, the instruction from the local host and the meal. The listing does not say whether a market visit, drinks or transport are included, so visitors should confirm these details and the menu with the host before booking. Language of instruction and the maximum group size are likewise not specified in the listing, and visitors who need English instruction should confirm it in advance. Dietary substitutions are not documented, so vegetarians and anyone with allergies should raise requirements at booking. A half-day format fits easily into a Yangshuo itinerary alongside a Li River cruise, cycling through the karst countryside or an evening on West Street, and the small-group size suits couples, families and solo travellers who prefer a quieter kitchen to a large demonstration class. Visitors wanting a lower-cost option can compare it with the other Yangshuo cooking classes on the same page.
