hi there

I am realy fan of chinesepod but I have a few comments relating to a recent intermediate level podcast.  my feeling was that the level was a little too high for intermediate - firstly because there was so much cooking-specific vocabulary and secondly, because the speed of the explanations was quite quick!! man man lai!!  Content wise, I thought it was cool and really interesting to get an insight into chinese cooking - can you add a few more of these kind of dialogues. e.g. how to make gongbao jiding..

I agree... The Cooking Wings lesson was one of the Intermediate lessons we made not long after I started. We were still trying to find the right level of difficulty then. Cooking vocabulary is quite advanced, though... a lot of it would be properly classified as at least Upper Intermediate, I think...
