Meeting Point
For Morning/Afternoon Classes:
Please meet our guide at Tan Dinh Market at your selected class time. Kindly inform your driver (if booking transportation) to drop you off at 105 Nguyen Huu Cau Street.
Our chef will be waiting with a Holy Pho Cooking Class banner so you can easily recognize us.
After the market tour, we will walk together to our cooking class venue, which is just 400 meters from the market.
For Evening Classes:
Please go directly to our cooking class location at 19 Thach Thi Thanh Street, Tan Dinh Ward, District 1 (next to Express by M Village Thach Thi Thanh).
From there, we’ll take you to a nearby local market by taxi, as Tan Dinh Market is only open during the daytime. The round-trip transportation is included in your booking fee. After the market visit, we’ll return to the class venue and begin cooking.
