. They can be a good avenue for small business owners like Chan because Airbnb provides advertising for the classes offered through its site. Experiences can also offer full-time employees an opportunity to start and grow a side gig.

Airbnb approved the experience approximately three to five weeks after the interview. Chan noted that, at the time, the "Airbnb Experience team was very small and they were short staffed in processing applications." Since then, he said, the team has grown. "When guests come in, we immediately serve them potstickers as appetizers," Chan said. "Then they wash their hands and we talk a little bit about the background of ramen and the ingredients that we use. Then we start making noodles from scratch, and after that, we go into the kitchen and cook the noodles."Chan emphasized that people often sign up for these types of experiences with friends or as a group, so to ensure friends have time to bond, they end with a mochi dessert.

"A lot of companies tell me they don't have to just pick a restaurant or a bar for the team bonding because everyone will just eat and drink," Chan said. "They want something more engaging. Making noodles and working as a team is interactive and engaging."
