Review for: Morning Hands-on Cooking Class

Seriously, our cooking class in Saigon was one of those trip highlights that just sticks with you. It felt super exclusive because it was just my two friends and me that morning. We got all the attention, which was awesome. Our chef was a gem. She was quite patient, guiding us through making three Vietnamese dishes. And the best part? She shared her own stories while we cooked, making it feel less like a class and more like hanging out with a friend who's an amazing cook. We were laughing and having such a great time preparing everything. We also agreed and think that the spring rolls we made that morning was hands down, the best we had our entire trip. The saigon cooking class was definitely a class we'll be remembering fondly for a long, long time. If you're heading to Saigon, you should try something like this!

Review for: Afternoon Hands-on Cooking Class

the venue was bit tricky to find, even Google map didnt really help much. Had to walk past this workshop to get there. The class was amazing though! Chef Oanh (sorry if I spelt wrong) explained everything in detail, share secrets and tips on which ingredients to use for the best result. another lady (omg I forgotten your name im sorry) she explained on the dessert and it was a surprise! didnt make the dessert as it needed to be done before hand. But it was such a good experience. Just book it. don't think 🤣

Review for: Afternoon Hands-on Cooking Class

Chef and staff are all friendly ❤️ A really nice activity to experience Vietnam on a deeper level. Chef even discussed few recipes we could try at home since I went on the class with my mom (e.g. marinate sauce, banana ice cream). She also recommended other food we should try and restaurants we should check. It was a pleasant talking to her and listening to here food trivias and personal stories. I’d go back next time on a different day to learn how to cook other dishes. We had the class to ourselves. Not sure if all afternoon classes really have few students enrolled. Thank you so much, Saigon Cooking Class ❤️

Review for: Vietnamese Cooking Class with Market Tour (Morning Only)

We booked a cooking class in Saigon through Klook and it was a fantastic experience. The price was reasonable, and we started with a market tour where we learned how to select fresh ingredients. During the class, we had the opportunity to cook three dishes. The chef guided us expertly, making the cooking process both educational and enjoyable. The food we prepared looked amazing and tasted even better! Overall, this was a worthwhile experience and a great way to immerse ourselves in Vietnamese cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Saigon!

Review for: Vietnamese Cooking Class with Market Tour (Morning Only)

We just stumbled upon this class here on Klook. I would highly recommend to try this one with the market tour. Chef Oanh's market tour was very informative and fun. After that we went to the cooking studio and it was squeaky clean and cozy. We prepared three dishes which we also ate ourselves and all of their staff were nice and helpful. Aside from that, Chef made sure to answer all of our curious questions with some of the native ingredients even after the tour. Please come and you will surely learn more about Vietnamese cuisine, plus all dished are filling. <3

Review for: Morning Hands-on Cooking Class

Me and my two other friends enjoyed our class so much. Chef Oanh was constantly looking out on all the students ensuring we are keeping up with her presentation and guide us along the way. Her class was interactive and informative at the same time, providing us with a little fun facts of each dish and how the dish came about and evolves over time in each region of Vietnam - for example the famous Vietnamese Fried Spring Rolls. The other class assistants constantly ensure that we are also hydrated well and will come by to ask if we needed more drinks. Equipment and utensils are of great condition too and cleanliness was great! Their preparation station in their kitchen was neat and clean, which gives us a lot of assurance that Chef Oanh takes hygiene and food safety of the highest standards. We truly enjoyed our lessons with Chef Oanh and will definitely recommend to our other friends to join in for a fun afternoon cooking class. There are different menu for different days, so do check on their website for the daily menu on what’s cooking! 😉

The previous cooking experience in Bangkok was so much fun that we signed up for another culinary session in Vietnam. Before the class, the chef took us through the vibrant wet market, sharing on the commonly used ingredients in Vietnamese cuisine. The chef guided us through step by step with so much fun chopping, mixing the ingredients with the final products ending up in our stomach! Recommended activity in HCM

Review for: Morning Hands-on Cooking Class

Here are the things we liked about the class. Chef: She can give clear instructions in English. She patiently waited for us to finish cutting or cooking the dishes. She explained the dishes well and their history. Food: We love our dishes - chicken stew, elephant ear plant, and lotus salad. Place: It’s in an ideal location! After the class, we strolled around the strip of fashion shops. The place is well-ventilated and is spacious enough to move around.
