Korean Cooking Class with Grocery Shopping at Seoul Local Market

Seoul Foodventure is probably one of the best cooking experience around. The class was compact and hands-on. We cooked our food almost from "scratch" and ate lunch together. The lesson weren't too hard and our instructors were very knowledgeable and we got to learn a bit of the cultures. The Mangwon market we visited was really fun if you like to mingle with local aunties and uncles as it wasn't swarmed with tourists. Totally recommend this if you're still considering.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! Pheobe and Sue were so nice and welcoming, providing us with a tour of Mangwon market where we saw different things and bought ingredients needed to make our food! We even got to try kimchi jeon (pancake) & buchu jeon ,, sooo yummy!!

Such an amazing experience! Not only did you get to cook and learn about korean food you got to walk through the local market and buy the ingredients. The instructor was so fun and kind she showed us around the local neighbourhood and talked about her favourite things about it! The timing of the whole day was perfect, never felt like you were doing one thing for too long.

It was a great experience from start to finish! The entire group also got along wonderfully! We had fun together, and at the same time, we saw, heard, and learned so many new things at the market! Afterward, the cooking. It was explained very clearly and simply – it was easy for all ages to follow along and keep up. It was simply perfect! I can only recommend it.

Instructor Phoebe is very kind, teaches attentively, and has a high level of English. Even if students do not understand Korean, they can understand the course content clearly. Before cooking, the instructor took the students to Wangyuan Market to observe and buy ingredients, which was a very rare and enjoyable experience.

I had a blast at this cooking class! It was a really hot day, so we all had Melone Ice during the market tour were we picked our fresh ingredients. The instructions for the cooking class were easy to follow and we all made some delicious meals! My favorite was the steamed egg 계란찜, the teacher evev gave us a tip where to buy the korean earthenware bowl needed to cook this recipe at home!

👉🏻The classroom is very close to the subway station and easy to find. The interior is decorated in wooden tones and is very warm. 👉🏻When shopping in the market, the teacher will explain the ingredients and Korean food culture. He also bought taiyaki for everyone and chose the sweet potato flavor. 🍠It's so sweet and delicious! 👉🏻Two of the teachers can speak some Chinese. They carefully explained the cooking methods and principles. The steamed egg part was very impressive! 👉🏻The whole meal was very filling, and I had enough energy to continue shopping in the market after the lunch session🙌🏻

It was such a nice experience. Phoebe was very well versed. The class was perfect and the market tour too.The place was very clean & aethetic. Plese try this class when in Seoul

I can’t recommend this class and walking tour enough. It was a lovely way to see an active market and make some amazing food. I’ll finally be able to make bulgogi at home!! if you are going to be cooking for yourself in Seoul, book this early in your trip to inspire you!!

Location was quite easy to find behind mangwon station. Phoebe was friendly and shown us around mangwon market, explaining the Korean culture and bring some context based on the participants home country. Cooking area was also clean, very well organized. Did not realize that we could cook up a decent Korean meal in abt 1hour. Steam egg, Bulgogi as well as gimbap making. Wonderful experience that my grown up boys enjoyed too.
