About Saigon Cooking Classs

What Travelers Say

5/5 from 177 verified GetYourGuide travelers

"My wife and I really enjoyed the cooking class with Hoa. She keeps class numbers low so that it is a more intimate feel. Hoa taught us how to make three dishes that were all delicious. She also told us we could get in contact with her if we had any questions about the dishes once we got home. T was an exceptional experience. My wife felt it was the best thing we had done while in Vietnam."

"Couldn’t recommend Hoa’s cooking class enough! She creates such a personal, warm environment while teaching us all about Vietnamese cooking. We got to pick the dishes we cooked and would definitely suggest making bun thit nuong— so delicious!"

"A little change of address meant we had to travel a bit further thru peak hour traffic but Hoà still accommodated us by suitable menu for me and hubby’s brand new teeth. We are looking forward to practicing the new recipes when we get home. Thank you Hoà. Beautiful home cook Vietnamese meals."

"We had a fantastic family cooking experience with Hoa in Ho Chi Minh City. It was highly interactive and felt much more engaging than simply following a recipe. Hoa made the session fun, hands-on and memorable, and our three children especially loved experimenting with her throughout the class. What really stood out was the care Hoa took before the experience even began. She went above and beyond to check for allergies and food preferences in advance, which meant everything we cooked was tailored so the whole family would genuinely enjoy it. The produce was incredibly fresh, and the food we made was so good that every last bit was eaten. This was a wonderful experience for both adults and children, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City."

James Australia

"We had the most amazing experience doing a cooking class in a local apartment. It was just the three of us and the host, which made it feel so personal and special. She was incredible, so attentive to all dietary requirements and really took the time to get to know us while teaching us. The whole experience felt so cosy and authentic. We absolutely loved it."
