Hoi An Cooking class - Brilliant chef Tee - An excellent cooking class with chef Tee - enjoyed the great practical teaching, so much fun and laughter whilst making 5 classic Vietnamese dishes. Chef Tee was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and took us through the recipes in easy to understand steps. We then sat downstairs in the restaurant and we were served the dishes we prepared .. not bad at all! A highlight of our time in beautiful Hoi An, highly recommended. Thank you chef Tee !!

A must do experience in Hoi An! - Our cooking class with Jam was one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam! Jam was an amazing guide and cook! The trip to the food market was very informative and enjoyable. Back at the restaurant Jam guided us through cooking a 5 course feast, which we then ate for lunch! Everything was very organised and clean. This was a fun family activity with teenage children, and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Hoi An!

An entertaining and informative way to spend an evening with dinner at the end - Hai was an excellent teacher and chef guiding us through recipes for five different Vietnamese dishes. A hands-on experience with lots of tasting along the way. I came away with a much better understanding of Vietnamese cuisine

Highly recommended staff and food - We really enjoyed our cookery class and the meal afterwards. We'd already eaten at Green Mango so knew the food and service were excellent, but the class was both fun and informative, including the visit to the market to source the vegetables. Our chef Pinky was really good, thank you!
