Seul Aulas de Culinária

I'm staying in Mangwon neighborhood for a month, and this was one of the first things I did. On the way to the market, the host Rachel talked about the neighborhood and pointed out the original traditional housing, which I appreciated. She also pointed out a small family restaurant that has a traditional Korean meal, which we did later go to, and it was excellent! While shopping for our supplies in the market, she also explained some items that foreigners may not be familiar with. The class itself was fun, anyone from experienced cooks, to people who never cook, can enjoy. And it was delicious!

I'd recommend the cooking class to anyone who wants to learn more about Korean food and culture from a local expert. Jiny is so kind and patient, the perfect instructor!

Jennifer is really nice and explains things really well, including the origins of the recipes and ingredients! Her English is really fluent, so there's nothing to worry about. We cooked and tasted 4 recipes in 2 hours, in a small group class so it was even more fun to enjoy it! The experience was really worth it, a great souvenir of Korea that we brought back and put into practice!

Fantastic class with good pacing allowed us to cook 6 semi-prepared iconic dishes in 2.5 hours without feeling rushed. The staff and chef were incredibly friendly and easy to chat with, and were eager to give us culinary and cultural advice about our stay. Would recommend!

My partner and I loved the experience! The tour of Mangwon market was great and very instructive (we went back after to buy our own freshly grouned chili powder :D) - really don't go to Gwangjang market and visit Mangwon instead! It is so much better! The cooking class was lovely, with lots of stories about korean food, ingredients and habits. We felt very welcomed and it was very friendly with the rest of the group! The best part: eating what you cooked (with a lot of help :D). Everything was amazing - I can't wait to cook jeon at home (very very cold water!) ♥ We enjoyed it so much that we forgot that it was rainy outside :D. One recommendation: I would advise to attend this experience at the start of your trip, this way you can use the little tips and tricks you get taught during the rest of your trip!

This was a great day! Market tour with food exploration. The cooking class was great we learned a lot, with home with all the recipes and more in a cookbook. Jomin gave great explanation and made the entire process interesting and fun! And the food was awesome, can’t wait to try recipes when we get back home.

We had the best time at the course with best instructions and super friendly cook. We learned a lot had great an delicious meals!

We learned a lot and it was a nice and clean atmosphere. We hat a great day and a lot of fun!

I was lucky enough to have what was almost a private lesson, to chat with the instructors, and to taste the dishes prepared. I highly recommend Hansik's cooking classes.

I wanted to do a simple cooking class in Korea. Not only did I learn about Korean cooking, I learn about Korean markets, foods, and culture overall. The instructor was very friendly and open. She is eager to talk about where we traveled from and our relationship went from instructor to a close friend. The cooking itself was fun and insightful. I will definitely recommend it to any of my friends who wish to travel to Seoul.

We loved making the different kinds of kimchi and learning about how all the ingredients come together. The market tour allowed us to ask a lot of questions about Korean food and ingredients. Jomin was a wonderful teacher and the class was very hands on. The kimchi we made was delicious!

Small friendly class and we'll set up and organised, from our visit to the market (where I also learnt so much about the street food, helpful for the rest of my trip!) to the step by step kimchi making in the teacher's well equipped kitchen. And we got to taste everything afterwards along with some delicious extras, and take kimchi home! Definitely win-win.

The experience with Junghee was simply amazing! She was a very upbeat and passionate host that asked all of us in the tour questions to get to know us better. It felt very personal and we learned many things about Korean food and culture while going through the market together. While going through the market, she told us many personal anecdotes and bought delicious snacks to try. Everything was nicely prepared for the cooking portion of the class, making the experience not only very educational, but also smooth. The detailed instructions she gave made the cooking very easy to do and enjoyable. We had a lot of fun and this class is definitely recommended to anyone who wants to experience Korean culture!

Spent a great morning cooking and chatting with Junghee; she explains all about the ingredients but also adds personal touches about her own experiences - it felt like hanging out with a friend who loves cooking! And of course having a tasty dinner afterwards makes it even better. Would definitely recommend!

We really enjoyed Junghee (Sara) cooking experience! Not only did she provide us an experience of a lifetime, she provided us insight of Korean food culture and traditions! Junghee was very personable, sweet and funny! She kept us laughing all the way while we did the market tour and during our cooking experience! Thanks again Junghee for pics of experience and giving us a memory of a lifetime to treasure forever!
