Traveler reviews
Great way to experience Vietnam
I had a Sunday layover in Hanoi and this was a great experience. The food we made was delicious and the instructor was fantastic.
Great cooking experience
As a couple, we really had a great experience in a group of 5 people + our chef Chinh (Collin). Was super fun and we enjoyed the whole activity. Really nice outgoing and fun guy with also great cooking skills. Food was great. Definitely can recommend.
Fun class
I took the cooking class with Alex and it was an amazing experience! I learned so much at the visit to the market and had a lot of fun cooking! The food was amazing, Alex was a great teacher, and they are very accommodating for allergies. Highly recommend!
Don't miss out on this experience when in Hanoi.
Great instructor Chris, market shopping experience with lots of cultural insights and of course wonderful selection of dishes to make and share with interesting people. My absolute favorite is the grilled pork bun cha and egg coffee.
Amazing Cooking Experience in Hanoi – Highly Recommended!
We had a great time at Rose’s Cooking Class in Hanoi. Everything was well organized, and the atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed from the start. Our teacher Kim was wonderful. She was very kind, spoke perfect English, and explained every step in a simple and clear way. She also shared interesting background information about the dishes and cooking methods. A special highlight was the visit to the local market. We went there together with Kim and bought fresh ingredients. She explained a lot about the local food and daily life, which made the experience even more interesting. The cooking part was fun and easy to follow. The ingredients were fresh, and the food we made was really delicious. This cooking class is a must-do in Hanoi. We highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about Vietnamese food and culture.
