Had an excellent time learning how to cook Vietnamese cuisine. Our guide Hailey was insightful, welcoming and clear! Definitely value for money as we had an absolute feast at the end.

Our family did this cooking class and we all enjoyed it. Our instructor, Haley, was very engaging and fun and did an excellent job with instruction and explanation. I’ve done cooking class in Hanoi before but only learned one dish, two if you count egg coffee but this course we learned 5 dishes (including egg coffee)! The Old Quarter location was also convenient.
