    Highly recommend this cooking class. We did with our 15 and 11 year old and they had an absolute blast. The chef was so kind and helpful to my 11 year old and taught them how to use a knife safely. Food was delicious, and they give you all the recipes too.

    This was so fun and educational. I not only learned to cook the amazing dishes but also the stories behind the ingredients that were used. Aroma was an exceptional facilitator who was able to answer questions, provide the historical context and receive my concerns relating to my food preferences. She also made it fun and relaxing which helped strangers to work together for a common goal and share this moment in time. I had a wonderful experience and would encourage anyone interested in experiencing a part of the Hanoi Vietnamese's culture to sign up for this course. You will not regret it.
