A very popular activity during a tour of Vietnam is a cooking class. Vietnamese cuisine is globally known for its varied flavours, presentation and freshness. Classes usually take a half a day and there are several to choose from in Hoi An. The more developed classes involve a trip to the nearby market to buy the traditional Vietnamese ingredients. We've recently reviewed the classes ourselves, click below to find out what we cooked!
Morning Glory Street Food Restaurant and Cooking School
Ms Vy’s class is full of interesting facts about Vietnamese food
& culture. Our class took place at Cargo Club and included a tour of the market. Ms. Vy’s
School of cooking is so popular, it’s tough to get booked into one. Due to
11 years of teaching success, she’s moving the cooking school to a larger
premises across the street.
