The shift toward participatory hospitality is such an underrated trend. Making dumplings together forces everyone to slow down in a way that passive tastings never do. Chef Preeti nailed it by choosing something tactile where everyone's on equal footing regardless of skill level. I did a similar workshop at a vineyard outside Barcelona last year and it completly changed how I thought about wine pairings, less about the "right" answer and more about shared discovery. Small groups + hands-on engagement seems like the real future of luxury expereinces.
