Meet Yiting
Welcome
Hey there! I'm Yiting, but you can call me Eating. I love welcoming new friends to my home for a real Shanghai meal, and I'm always happy to chat about the menu and customise a special dinner for you.
About me
I cook both Shanghai and Sichuan cuisine. I learned ceramics in Jingdezhen and made a full set of tableware, so every dish here comes on something I made. I also grow vegetables on a rented plot outside Shanghai.
Languages
I speak Mandarin and English.
Outside the kitchen
I love ceramics, urban farming, camping and nature. I eat with the seasons: bamboo shoots in spring, crayfish and green soybeans in summer, hairy crab and taro in autumn.
Travel experience
I've visited over 20 countries and I'm obsessed with natural landscapes: the ocean, lakes, wildflowers and forests. I love camping in quiet, peaceful spots.

Everything went really well — honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better lunch. The surprise landed perfectly, the food was excellent, and Yiting’s cooking was absolutely delicious. The wet market was a lot of fun too, and the company made the whole experience even more special. The birthday dessert definitely did its job as well! Please pass on our thanks to Yiting. You could really feel how much care she put into everything, and we appreciated it a lot. All in all, it was a wonderful birthday and we had a great time.

We had the most marvellous time! Eaty was really friendly, she designed a whole vegan menu, and had all the ingredients ready and a few things prepares to show us when we arrived how she prepares each dish while we chat about our lives. She also invited a friend and her cousin. So we had a lively conversation and most delicious and varied dinner. My parents were really happy too. My mother told her to come visit to Buenos Aires
