5.00Suyang was a great guide for our class. The market was insane in its size and busyness but great to see. Our class was informative, relaxed and most importantly delicious.
Amazing experience!

5.00We had such a wonderful experience with Mr. Chang during our Busan cooking class! He made us feel welcome right away and brought so much passion and warmth to the entire experience. The class was fun, easy to follow, and full of great cultural insights. The food turned out absolutely delicious, and it felt like a truly special, hands-on experience. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Busan. Thank you, Mr. Chang!
Terrific host

5.00So friendly! We had a very fun time drinking soju and babbling about South Korean culture, Suyan (I believe that’s how it spelt) was an incredible host. If we’re ever in Korea, we will certainly go back!
Funny cooking evening with Korean history lesson

5.00We had a private cooking class just for two. Our cooking teacher Suyang gave us a market tour first and then we had cooked about 4h. The whole course was fun and a great Korean culture and history hour. If you are interested in korea has little idea or just want to have a fresh version of Korean food and culture is in great hands here.
Great experience!

5.00I really enjoyed this Korean cooking experience . We walked around the market first buying some if the ingredients for our cooking class. We made short ribs with vegetables. It was delicious and he even had containers to bring your leftovers. We had lots of time to relax between preparing our food. It was a great experience from start to finish.

5.00An amazing cooking class with a great teacher. The guide took us to the local market and told us about the things he was buying as we went along. When he learned one in our group is gluten intolerant he started pointing out restaurants and dishes that she could eat. We got many new tips for places to eat! When we made the booking he contacted us so we could choose what dishes to cook, and we we were able to choose a full gluten free menu. The cooking class itself was very fun. We got plenty of tips and tricks on how to cut our ingredients the best way, and interesting little facts about the food and ingredients. We had many laughs together, ate the food we cooked (and got so many leftovers), and left with a full belly and a happy heart! Would absolutely recommend booking this class!
Great cooking class!

Korean cooking course

5.00I would highly recommend the Korean cooking course in Busan. The experience was exceptional from beginning to end. *Traditional Market Visit* One of the highlights of the course was the traditional market visit our teacher took us on. He explained in great detail the different ingredients and produce used in Korean cuisine, giving us a deeper understanding of the local food culture. *Cooking Traditional Dishes* After the market visit, we headed to the kitchen where we prepared several traditional Korean dishes. The teacher was very clear and patient in his explanations, allowing us to easily understand and replicate the recipes. The food we prepared was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed eating together. *Excellent Communication* One of my favorite things about the course was the teacher's excellent communication skills. He speaks perfect English, which made everything very easy to understand and follow. There were no language barriers that prevented us from learning and enjoying the course.
We joined this cooking...

5.00We joined this cooking class and were absolutely thrilled! The market tour through Busan’s largest food market was definitely a highlight. Our guide was incredibly friendly, shared so much knowledge about food, and even gave us great restaurant recommendations. After some short text exchanges we met up at Bujeon Market, which turned out to be our favorite Busan Market. Its vibrant and full of people, different types of food and colors. We walked along while getting the groceries, watching the locals shop and taking in the sights. All the while our guide/ cook was stopping every now and then to point out a good place to eat or an interesting tidbit. Afterwards it was two short stops by train to the kitchen. The atmosphere was very relaxed – we chatted not only about cuisine but also about history and many other topics. The cooking itself was a lot of fun. The dish turned out delicious, and we prepared so much that we even had leftovers to take with us for the next day. One small thing: we initially thought Banchan would also be part of the class, as that’s how we understood the description. That wasn’t the case, but we ended up buying some excellent Banchan at the market instead. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that we would highly recommend!
