We had the best experience cooking with Eunkyo! First, we walked around the local market and she explained us a lot of things about local food. Some shop owners gave us some things to try. After that, we cooked a really nice meal that we could enjoy and it was delicious. The full proces was so nice and enjoyable! We fully recommend the experience and we will come back whithout hesitation the next time we visit Gyeongju. 😊
We had an amazing experience at the Seondeok K-Cooking Class with Enuyko. From start to finish, it was a fun and memorable activity for me and my children. A highlight was visiting the local market before class, where we learned about fresh Korean ingredients and got a glimpse of everyday Korean food culture. It made the cooking experience feel even more authentic. My children loved taking part in every step of preparing traditional Korean dishes. They had so much fun getting hands-on in the kitchen, and it was wonderful to see them excited to learn something new. Enuyko was an incredible instructor—patient, kind, and encouraging. She answered all of my girls’ questions with enthusiasm and made them feel included and confident while cooking. This was more than just a cooking class; it was a cultural experience that created wonderful family memories. I highly recommend the Seondeok K-Cooking Class with Enuyko to anyone visiting Korea, especially families.
I had a wonderful time at Seondeok K Cooking with my kids! Eunkyo(Host) was warm, kind, and welcoming! If you are traveling to Korea, be sure to visit Gyeongju and BOOK this class! The tour around the market and making food were both fun and educational for the kids and me! Having small talks with the market vendors was also a unique experience. Highly, highly recommend!!!
