Hanoi Garden Banh Mi Class: Dough, Baguette & Grilled Pork Skewers

Over ons

Escape the busy streets of Hanoi and discover Vietnamese cuisine in a peaceful, nature-inspired garden setting.

In this unique hands-on experience, you will learn how to create Banh Mi from the very beginning — starting with the dough. Guided by a local chef, you will mix, shape, and bake your own Vietnamese baguette, gaining insight into the balance between French influence and Vietnamese flavors.

While your bread is baking, you will prepare the essential fillings that make Banh Mi so special. You will learn how to make traditional pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and signature sauces, creating the perfect balance of flavors.

You will also cook Vietnamese grilled pork skewers (Thit Xien Nuong), marinated with local spices and grilled to perfection.

Finally, you will assemble your own Banh Mi — crispy, fresh, and completely handmade by you — and enjoy it in a relaxing garden space.

This experience is designed to be immersive, personal, and deeply connected to Vietnamese food culture, suitable for beginners and food lovers alike.
