Life In Laugh - Dalat Cooking Class

From the start we knew we were going to have a great day. First we picked three meals from a menu. Then we went to the wet and dry markets where we learnt the names of all the wonderfull fruits, vegetables, and meat Vietnam has to offer. With ingredients in hand we headed off to the kitchen to cook. We prepared all the ingredients and cooked all three meals before sitting down to eat. It was so good. Thank you Son, you were such a great guide and instructor. Your English is fantastic, and your humour touching. When we returned home we received photos and videos of us cooking and our prepared meals. What a fantastic experience. Just do it.

it was a super nice experience she was so kind and i learned a lot would defenitly recomend also everything was fresh from the market 🖤

We had an interesting and very personal market tour followed by a funny and delicious cooking. We learned a lot about ingredients and preparation. Son handled everything with ease and she is a lovely person

The market introduces a variety of food ingredients. I had a cooking class with a bright smile and a good mood. The finished food was very delicious.

We had the best night with Son- she was a joy to be around plus made the experience amazing. Very authentic and real.

Taking a cooking class in Dalat through Cookly was an unforgettable experience! The instructor was incredibly kind and patient, making the entire process both enjoyable and easy to follow. The day started with a fascinating visit to the morning market, where we explored a variety of fresh ingredients. The local vendors were welcoming, and I even got to sample some unique flavors. Our guide explained each ingredient in detail, making the market tour a great introduction to Vietnamese cuisine. Back at the cooking class, we prepared three dishes of our choice in a beautiful outdoor garden. The recipes were surprisingly simple yet produced stunningly delicious and visually appealing dishes. It was such a fun and relaxing experience, and I loved every moment of it! I would highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Dalat. Whether you're a food lover or just looking for a unique cultural experience, this is a perfect way to immerse yourself in Vietnam’s rich culinary traditions.

Central market tour and home cooking class is wonderful experience!

I spent a fun morning with Son, going to the market and then returning to the garden to cook three great Vietnamese dishes. It was nice that I could choose what we cooked and the time was very relaxed even though it was just me in the class. Son is a lovely lady and I highly recommend her cooking class.

Sun came with us to the market and bought all the fresh ingredients for our dishes. Afterwards, we went to an outdoor kitchen and cooked everything; it was absolutely delicious, and everything was explained in detail. We had to wait a while for the recipes and ask several times, which was a bit annoying.

Sun is very active and passionate person. She introduced traditional market and buy ingredients together. It was pretty informative time for us to learn all different vegetables, herbs, and fruits. Her cooking studio is very open and beautiful place. I really enjoy the class and it was pretty unique time for us in Dalat. If you like to learn Vietnamese food and something new experience, I recommand this cooking class.

Sun was a good instructor, knowledgeable and a great personality.

There were a lot of people from different nationalities in our class, and even if we didn't speak English well, we managed to communicate and have fun. The class was open and different, the food was delicious, and the ingredients were fresh because they were bought directly from the market. Overall, I was satisfied.

We had such fun in this class. We learnt lots about the culture of cooking in Vietnam and the social side of food. The market shopping was brilliant, picking up all the things we needed for what we chose to make - Ms. Son’s energy and joy was infectious 💕 And then we got to cook and eat it all in her beautiful garden.

The market tour, our guide (Son)’s absolutely lively personality, and a fantastic meal all made our time in Da Lat a highlight of our trip. We learned a ton and had so much fun! Would highly recommend.

Thanks for a lovely day, we learned a lot about the markets in Dalat and the culture around food in Vietnam. I really recommend this activity if you have a day to spare, do not rush as it’s nice to take your time and learn.

I had such a wonderful time, 1:1 learning about the culture of Vietnam/Da Lat and then getting to cook the most delicious 3 meals! I would highly recommend this class to anyone travelling in the area.

Our market and cooking class was a leisurely day with lots of new experiences and learning new skills. We loved the outdoor kitchen and exploring the market!

I like enjoying cooking classes when I travel. This class was the best of my cooking class experiences. I realized why this class is called 'Life in Laugh'. I wanna say thank you to my teacher, Son. I called her 'mother-in-law' during the class. Xin Cam On! I uploaded my vlog on my YouTube channel. I strongly recommend it. https://youtu.be/_4d9DPYBTeQ?feature=shared

I truly enjoyed whole things about this cooking class. From shopping at the local market to being introduced to local cuisine with the host’s original recipe, everything was impeccable. Also, the place for cooking was a really cute patio with lots of mint plants around and we actually grabbed those and put them into our dishes right away. Our host Son was a great tour guide as well as a good cook. What we had made was super delicious and we also had a great conversation during dinner. I highly recommend this if you really want to experience the essence of Dalat traveling!

달랏에서 한 것 중에 제일 재밌었습니다! 멀리가지 마시고 가까운 곳에서 행복을 찾으세요! Thanks Son!

The local market tour was really interesting. We cooked Vietnamese food with fresh ingredients. Obviously, it was DELICIOUS!!! Also, Chef Son was extremely friendly and helpful. Such an unusual experience. I strongly recommend this program.

It is a very special and enjoyable shopping and cooking experience☺️☺️All dishes are delicious! Suggest to put an eye catching sign to allow easy access for students. Time control can be further improved if menu can be confirmed in advance.

The course was very interesting and informative, especially visiting the local market. It was good to see the vast array of ingredients used and how they would all combine. And of course bringing everything together, cooking and tasting the food was a great experience.

My partner and I did a cooking class in Hoi An and we thought it would be similar. This was very different experience and we absolutely loved it. It’s not everyday that you get to go to the markets with a mother of 2 to buy all the Fresh ingredients at the markets and cook three delicious dishes in her family home. She is super friendly, kind and would recommended this for anyone who wants the home cooking experience.

We had a nice time learning about the different ingredients, wondering the market and preparing a delicious meal!
