5.00Qunyh was a wonderful host. The whole experience was perfectly laid out. It was in an attic workshop, the tables and the accessories were perfectly laid out. He even prepared the ‘most tastiest Banh Mi’ in the city to eat before I taste so many coffee’s! The history lesson was very appropriate. For each of the coffee making he provides delightful insights of the local culture that went into some of the quirky ingredients. Also he was exceptional in allowing me to craft the whole coffee 100% on my own, while he explained or sometimes did his own pre demo. He has even followed up days later to share some of the recipes. The whole event wasn’t rushed at all. In fact I wish could do more to help the visitors to the culture and the city be more aware of this workshop.
Impressive and totally out of my expectations in a very good way!

5.00Had the BEST afternoon with Quynh, who is not only friendly but also an expert in the coffee production industry. He provided us with great stories about the development of Vietnam coffee and clear instructions on how to make coffee that suit our individual taste. I would give 10 stars if there was this option!

5.00I loved this coffee course! Quynh gave me a nice experience in a relaxed environment. He practically showed me how I could make the different types of coffee in an educational way. I also got to know Vietnam’s history in the coffee industry and we were able to philosophize around the different types of coffee and its origins. Highly recommend taking time for this activity if you love coffee!
A fantastic experience

5.00We really enjoyed our interactive workshop with Quynh, learning a lot about Vietnamese culture, history, and global coffee culture through each drink. Quynh was interesting, knowledgable and enthusiastic which made him a great and engaging teacher. We would really recommend this workshop to people interested in learning more about Vietnamese history and culture. We also bought the unique Vietnamese coffee grinds and maker to take back home, and have been enjoying the iced Vietnamese coffee we have been making since our visit! Thank you, Quynh.
Fun, interactive, amazing!

5.00Amazing experience, Quynh was very experienced and knowledgeable! The atmosphere was friendly, and he gave us a brief history of Vietnam and its coffee origins, before letting us make the coffee itself! He first showed us the wrong way of making it, then how to make a proper cup. After that, we made 3 coffees - condensed milk, egg coffee, salt coffee. All 3 were super easy and fun to make, and he explained it all really well! 10/10 will recommend this workshop to our family and friends!
