Great cooking class with Lena - The cooking class is great. We started from 8:30am to visit a small local market first where you can find all the fresh ingredients like meat, vegetables, fruits. You can also have a good sight of local residents buying and purchasing goods there too. The class offered a variety of good foods and drinks to enjoy too. Love it, and thank you Lena!

Amazing experience with Lee who is a knowledgeable and kind teacher. The food we made was delicious! - This was our favourite thing we did in Hanoi. Lee was our teacher and she was wonderful with sharing her knowledge of Vietnamese culture and foods as well as teaching us the dishes. Lee taught us how to prepare dishes I’ve eaten many times but the flavour of the dishes we created was much better than anything I’ve had at a restaurant in Hanoi or at home in Australia. We were tired after a day in the sun and lots of walking and Lee was very patient and kind with us. My 13 year old daughter enjoyed the experience as much as I did and can’t wait to makes these dishes for friends at home. There was so much food and fruit to enjoy after cooking and we couldn’t eat much so Lee packed us up boxes of food and fruits to take with us. Great value and really great experience. Big thanks to Lee for a wonderful afternoon

Not to be missed - Tucked away into hanois old quarter this cooking class was the best decision we could ever make. Our guide Evelyn showed us around the markets where we picked our ingredients before coming back to cook. Preparing the food was so fun and instructions from Evelyn made everything very easy. Honestly so delicious and we even got the recipes in the end!
