this was the highlight of our trip in HCMC! Spencer was a great instructor. My food allergies were noted and I was given different ingredients, but it didn’t make me feel excluded at all. food was great, location was near everything, it wasn’t hard to find or navigate. overall an amazing experience.
Amazing experience... going to the market with Chef Helenand her assistant at first and buying the fresh ingredients for the recipes.. back to M.O.M studio and we have learned to cook 4 vietnames recipes ..
I booked the day of (2am) and didn't get messaged via WhatsApp so I thought they missed my booking. They arrived on the dot (8:35am) and we were relieved to be included in. Great instructor, very interactive class, and amazing dishes. They have a rotating menu depending on the day so choose wisely. Very accommodating to my sister with shellfish allergy.
cooking class was very fun and engaging, we enjoyed listening to our teacher explain more about the ingredients and how to cook! he was humourous as well haha. very patient instructor and would definitely recommend this activity! food was really nice too.
The Class started with having a tour at the market with the owner explaining to us about the purpose of the raw ingrediants and the use of it in vietnamese cooking and culture. His explanation is very clear and well understood. Next we did a short walk to the cooking studio and the studio is just gorgeous and clean. The cooking lesson is simple and can easily do at home, as if. The session is not too long and not too short for an introvert like me. Overall good experience. would recommend for couple or groups.
The Vietnam cooking class with a market tour was an amazing and immersive experience. The market visit was very informative, where we learned about local ingredients, herbs, and how Vietnamese people shop and cook daily. The cooking class itself was hands-on and well organised, with clear instructions and a relaxed atmosphere. We cooked several authentic Vietnamese dishes and enjoyed the meal we prepared together. It was a fun, educational, and delicious experience.
Absolutely, José! Here’s a nice draft for your review: ⸻ I recently took a cooking class here in Saigon, and it was an absolutely excellent experience. I had a really great time from start to finish. The class was super well-organized, with clear instructions that made it easy to follow along. The setup was perfect for learning, and everything was arranged so that we could really focus on the cooking. As for the food, it turned out to be incredibly authentic and delicious. I left feeling like I’d learned a lot and had a really fun time. I’d definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a hands-on, enjoyable cooking experience in Saigon! ⸻ Feel free to tweak it if you want to add anything personal!
Teacher Helen gave clear instructions and I’m so glad that I took this class. It made my Saigon trip more meaningful. I also enjoyed the meals we made after. More flavorful than the ones they offered in famous restaurants! They provided all the recipes and equipment needed during the class. We also received a certificate after. 💕
Great cooking class experience in Ho Chi Minh! The staff were professional and approachable. They explained well the dishes and cooking process. Location is just a few minutes walk from Ben Tanh market. I highly recommend this activity.
We had a fantastic experience at MOM Cooking Studio! The local market tour was such a great way to learn about Vietnamese ingredients and daily life — our guide explained everything so clearly and made it really fun. The cooking class itself was wonderful — we got to make several delicious Vietnamese dishes, and every step was well-explained and hands-on. The entire session was informative, engaging, and filled with warm hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone who wants an authentic and memorable Vietnamese cooking experience!
