Saigon Cooking Class & Local Market Tour

Sobre nosotros

Unleash the secrets of Local Cuisine! Sharp your cooking skills, learn, eat & have fun! Our Chefs exclusively fluent in English teach classic Vietnamese dishes as well as contemporary, excellent, Hoa Tuc signature recipes.

The market tour will introduce you the local ingredients and purchase a selection of them for your cooking class. For a fun and warmer atmosphere participants cook all together with our Chef but everyone has their own material and ingredients for a better understanding of cooking techniques. 

You will discover Vietnamese kitchenware to cook and enjoy a tasty 4 courses meal. MSG and Knorr powders/enhance flavors are of course forbidden! We will adapt the menu to vegetarians or for people with food allergies. 

We can also cater up to 45 pax for big private group bookings. Feel free to contact us for more information.
