Fantastic Experience! - We absolutely enjoyed learning about and preparing Vietnamese dishes and the differences between regional cuisines. Our chef and host, Jessie, was outstanding at keeping everyone engaged and informed while we toured the market to buy ingredients and during preparation. He was an expert in accommodating vegetarian diners in our group and also keeping two under-4 year olds occupied over 4 hours! The recipes he gave us will be put to good use when we get home. We had a dinner reservation that night and we’re so full from our daytime class we barely ordered any dinner… 😀 If we were in Hanoi for longer, we would go again.

An all-round successful evening - Alex, our host, met us at the market and showed us how the locals shop in Vietnam. Afterwards we drove with Grab to the location (paid by organizer). It is a friendly and very nice place where you feel comfortable. As a group we were able to decide on two starters and a main course that we wanted to cook together. Our choice was banana flower salad, fresh springrolls and Pho Bo. In addition, we were able to taste three more types of rice wine. For dessert we could prepare either a cocoa or a coffee with egg or coconut stopping with the help of Alex. It was a wonderful experience that allowed us Alex. The whole team is very warm and familiar. You feel welcome and learn a lot.

A Must in Hanoi - Fantastic afternoon! Mango was such a great instructor. From getting fresh ingredients at the market to experiencing authentic Vietnamese cooking. Very clear instructions and everyone had turns doing different things. Will definitely join the class again next time I am in Hanoi. Big shoutout to all the staff that were there to help out with other stuff. Thank you Mango for all the fun.

Amazing experience and food - I loved the food and the atmosphere and is a perfect place for a family to spend the afternoon and the night. I would 100% recommend to everyone to go here. Jessie is amazing and extremely funny and the pricing is fair for the services that you receive. Perfect for a family of around 4 but could accommodate for higher

Local experience - Visit to a local market was eye opening. The guide explained to us how locals shop. Once we arrived at a venu, she explained to us what we are going to cook. We had total of 8 participants but she ensured we each got to experience in each process. They had enough helpers to help us at once. Food we made was tasty as well as homemade wine they let us taste with lunch. It was about 4 hours experience and the time flew so fast as we were having fun. Highly recommend for something locals to experience
