Hanoj Kurzy vaření

I think the cooking class in Blue Butterfly is a very unforgettable memory for me in Hanoi! From the market to the kitchen, let tourists get close to the local people's diet and eating habits. Different regions make different food. When I learned to cook all the dishes, at that moment, I felt that I belonged to the locals.

An absolutely fantastic experience—I'd say it was perfect! From the morning market shopping session, to the pick-up and drop-off transport, to the cooking venue and the staff's attitudes—everything deserves full marks from me!! The dishes we made were incredibly delicious too haha, and I also made a lot of new friends;) It was my last day in Hanoi, and I'm so glad I chose Dine with Locals~

Toto byl jeden z mých nejoblíbenějších zážitků v Hanoji. Prohlídka místního trhu byla skvělým způsobem, jak se dozvědět o vietnamských ingrediencích, než jsme se vrátili vařit. Instruktoři byli přátelští, zkušení a všichni se s nimi cítili vítáni, i když měli jen velmi malé zkušenosti s vařením. Připravili jsme několik vynikajících tradičních jídel a recepty byly jasně vysvětleny, takže si je mohu připravit i doma. Vše bylo dobře zorganizované, kuchyně byla čistá a atmosféra byla zábavná a uvolněná. Odcházel jsem s plným žaludkem, novými kuchařskými dovednostmi a mnohem lepším pochopením vietnamské kuchyně. Jídlo bylo naprosto vynikající a rozhodně ve mně vzbudilo touhu jíst vietnamské jídlo znovu, až se vrátím domů. Tuto lekci bych vřele doporučil každému, kdo navštíví Hanoj.

Jesse byl opravdu skvělý a trpělivý instruktor. Hodně jsme se bavili, když jsme se učili připravovat vietnamskou kávu a Banh Mi od základu. Místo je také velmi čisté a vypadá opravdu pěkně. Také nám dali nějaké nápoje na ochutnání, zatímco jsme čekali. Velmi dobrá zkušenost!

This was such a great class. It didn’t even feel like “learning”, it felt like old friends catching up despite us meeting for the very first time. Lynn (our instructor) was very friendly and made sure everyone had something to do. She made the class fun and engaging. I enjoyed every moment.

Chef Hung-Pickle thought us the secrets behind making amazing pho, bun cha, and spring rolls. The tour started with buying fresh ingredients in a local market then to cooking in a gorgeous kitchen, grilling in the backyard, and even rolling up fresh noodles. Such a fun hands-on experience. Totally recommend — 5 stars all the way!

It was such an enjoyable experience joining this cooking class in Hanoi! I didn’t expect that, aside from learning how to cook authentic Vietnamese dishes, we would also get to immerse ourselves in Vietnam’s vibrant culture. The instructors were welcoming, the experience was fun and hands-on, and I walked away with both new cooking skills and a deeper appreciation for Vietnamese cuisine. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Hanoi, it’s definitely one of the highlights of the trip!

I had a very informative time making Vietnamese pho and local-style coffee at the cooking class. Pho: I was able to learn in detail from the process of making the broth to preparing the noodles and toppings. I am very satisfied to have gained tips on recreating the deep, local flavor at home. Coffee: I learned how to extract and make Vietnam's signature rich and sweet coffee using condensed milk and cream. The process was not complicated yet tasted wonderful, making it very practical. Thanks to the instructor's kind explanations and systematic guidance, even beginners can easily follow along. I highly recommend it for the opportunity to enjoy the dishes you make yourself.

Loved this class! Since there was no one else who booked with us, we kinda had a private 3-pax class haha 😁 Chef Hung (and his assistant Mira) was very knowledgable and spoke good english, answering our questions well throughout the market tour, class, and even in their herb garden. The recipes he taught was also super flavourful and I loved that we were able to make everything from scratch, including the pho skin, a unique experience that I could only find in this cooking centre! As well as other of our favourite dishes: Bun Cha and spring rolls, where there was even bbq equipment avail. Overall, would really recommend this class. For the price, it’s really worth it too!
