Cidade de Ho Chi Minh Aulas de Culinária

My husband booked a cooking class for me while in Vietnam. He ended up joining me as his business meeting was postponed. We loved it! Dung took us through the Ben Thanh market pointing out and identifying all the spices, herbs, fruits and vegetables that are unique to Vietnamese cuisine. We also toured through the wet market viewing all the seafood and meats….so interesting! Once back to the culinary school we prepared 3 dishes including fresh rolls made with shrimp and pork and fresh herbs and vegetables with a delicious dipping sauce, then thin crispy Vietnamese fried pancakes as well as a tasty carmelized pork cooked in a clay pot. We sat down to enjoy our meal with a pitcher of cold jasmine tea. Dung was an excellent teacher and attentive to the details of each of our dishes. She also showed us how to eat our food using the herbs and lettuce grew and sauces. I would recommend this cooking school. It was clean and bright and everyone who worked there was so friendly. I liked it so much, I went back the next day for a Vietnamese coffee making class with An. A was also so friendly and outgoing and also an excellent teacher. We made 4 kinds of coffee and they were each unique and delicious. I learned so much and now know what to order everyday in the numerous cafes and coffee houses we have gone to everyday since arriving in this beautiful country. I loved my coffee making class! An and Dung were both lovely and proved again that it’s the people you meet that truly make a trip a great experience.

The tour of the market was so interesting, and the actual cooking class was fantastic - the food we cooked was delicious and our guide/teacher was wonderful. Very knowledgable and funny! Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Ho Ch Minh City :)

Lua’s cooking class ended up being one of the highlights of our time in Vietnam! I can’t recommend the class enough. Lua is so kind and taught us so much about cooking Vietnamese food. The class ended up being just two of us and she accommodated our dietary restrictions so well - she made vegan and regular versions of all the dishes while teaching me tips about vegan cooking I had never heard. Not only is the class fun and the food delicious, Lua welcomes you into her home so kindly. The view from the apartment is amazing. We happened to book the class on the first day of a festival in the city and Lua let us stay late to watch the fireworks along the river with some of her family members. The entire experience was perfection! Thank you Lua!

They tell us prepartaion method of the sause. It was not difficult and we could replay it after goiing back to Japan. They were very friendly and kind. They advised us not only coolking but also transportation to the airport.

This cooking class was such a wonderful experience and unlike any other cooking classes on the market. You can request dishes off her list on the booking page to make sure you will be making something you will like and she caters for dietary restrictions and allergies too! Emily is so lovely and her home (where the class takes place) is so welcoming! She made sure that we always had something to do or watch and checked that we were following throughout the class. You get to eat your dishes around the dinner table, joined by her boyfriend who helps to prep and cook in parts of the class, and there was so much left over food that we took home with us which was amazing! At the end of the class we got to try some local market fruits as well which were delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed this class and I would recommend it to anyone looking to learn more about Vietnamese cuisine in a cozy and welcoming environment.

I had the pleasure of joining twice, and each time was an unforgettable experience. Lua herself is incredibly friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you step in. Her passion for Vietnamese cuisine is contagious, and her expertise shines through as she guides you through each dish with patience and enthusiasm. The classes are not only informative but also a lot of fun. Lua has a knack for making even the most intricate recipes seem approachable, and her hands-on teaching style ensures that everyone gets involved and learns something new. I left each class feeling empowered and inspired to recreate the delicious dishes at home.

I love 💕 the cookbooks which I brought.

I did the full nine courses and each of them was very nice, it also helped to see the base of Vietnamese cooking as to which ingredients stayed the same and which ones swapped out. You are loaded with information, particularly in the garden, that leads me to think maybe I should have been writing things down if I hadn't been enjoying it so much. The staff is all really nice and the owner is a natural wheeler dealer with a gift for the gab, amusing me and his other guests throughout the day. Your money could go further other places in Vietnam, however it is a good day's cooking and I would recommend.

My boyfriend and I loved this cooking class, our teacher was very enthusiastic and taught us all about every ingredient, and made sure every member of the class was keeping up and knowing what to do. We learnt about Vietnamese herbs and fish sauce and prawns, etc. We had iced tea to go with the food. The food was so yummy!! We also got a cute recipe booklet to take home. Loads of fun!! Oh - and the market tour at the beginning was a lovely way to begin the day!

Started off with a cute little market tour. Friendly and informative chef guided us through the 3 different meals which left me very full and content by the end of the session. The recipe cards we got at the end came in handy when I attempted to recreate the dishes back home! Had a great time :)

This class was fantastic- enthusiastic teacher, spotless working area and delicious food. We learnt so much about the ingredients, and the recipes will be reproducible in our own kitchen. Great value and highly recommended

Layla was a great guide! She showed me so many different foods and she did a great job explaining what everything was and how to eat it. She was so friendly and sweet and I had a great time with her.

Mi was an both warm and friendly and a source of information as she took our small class of 4 people through the preparation of three very different Vietnamese dishes. We all learnt a great deal about ingredients we already thought we already knew (particularly Morning Glory) and it was a bonus to be able to purchase some of the specialist utensils to keep our Vietnamese cooking going when we arrive home to Australia. We also appreciated being provided with the recipes of all the dishes we were taught. They were beautifully presented in a lovey colourful folder. All up, a wonderful 3 hours and a real highlight of our Saigon holiday.

We had a tour of the local marker to learn about the ingredients we were going to use. The chef was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic and it completely added to the experience. The food we learnt to make was simple and delicious
