Seoul Cooking classes

My daughter and I had a wonderful experience learning how to make kimchi from scratch. The ingredients were prepared for each station so we did all the chopping and layering the ingredients between the leaves of the napa cabbage. It was a small class so we got to meet other people traveling as well. We got to take home the kimchi and cant wait to make several dishes with it. Kimchi tofu stew, kimchi fried rice and as a side dish. The class was less than an hour so we were able to fit it in to our busy schedule. We also had delicious kimchi pancake after the class was completed. I'm happy we took the class and definitely recommend to a anyone wanting to learn how to make kimchi.

Definitely a highlight of our trip! A wonderful experience and so fun to learn how to make yummy Korean dishes together! It was easy to follow and do as a small group. it's nice also to have a history behind the location and food, as well as sitting down to eat together. we also did the tour at the end, which was really interesting, despite the rain! Jiny is a lovely and kind teacher/guide. I recommend taking this experience when you are in Korea!

This cooking class was a huge highlight of our trip to Korea! Our chef was not only incredibly talented but also so accommodating, making the entire process feel seamless. We didn’t just follow recipes; we received explicit, easy-to-follow instructions that still allowed for creativity. Beyond the food, we loved learning about the cultural significance behind the ingredients and techniques. We prepared an authentic Korean meal, a main dish, and a variety of side dishes (banchan), which were all spectacular. There was so much food we couldn't even finish it all! If you are in the area, this is a must-do. Highly recommended :)

An absolute MUST-DO experience in Seoul! Our family took a cooking class yesterday with Park, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish! Park was absolutely amazing. His English is fantastic, making communication completely effortless, and we had so many interesting conversations throughout the session. The dishes we prepared were not only extraordinarily delicious, but also visually stunning—true works of art! A huge bonus for families: we brought our 4-year-old daughter along, and Park was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. He included her in the process in such a wonderful, engaging way, making her feel so special and involved. Our whole family enjoyed every single moment. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Seoul, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. If you’re visiting Seoul, this experience is an absolute must! ❤️ אל תפספסו!! הסדנא הכי טוב. שעשינו בחיים! ועשינו סדנאות בהמון מדינות!❤️🇰🇷

The teacher is very elegant and patient! She's easy to communicate with and understand, and the food she cooks herself is indeed exceptionally delicious! Halfway through cooking, the aroma was so enticing it made my mouth water. It was a fun cooking experience, and I got a full meal out of it! Plus, there was fruit to take home, which was a super fun bonus! Highly recommend!

The experience was great. The monk described the practices of temple food in Korea for about 30 minutes, and it was all live translated. After that, he demonstrated what we were going to cook, and then it was our turn to cook and eat it. The cooking was done in groups of four. The whole class took about 1h and 30 minutes.

This was an amazing experience Jin Sil was an amazing instructor, gave very clear, easy to follow instructions. We made mandu, japjae, tteobokki all of my favorite dishes. We got a little bite of a history lesson about the dishes. I highly recommend booking this experience with Jin Sil

A must have experience for your trip! To start, you are in a beautiful historic neighborhood. Small class size (10 people) allows the instructor Sam to familiarize with everybody as well as communication between each other. Was impressed with the class’ diversity with country of origin. Plenty knowledge shared from Sam and laughs had with one another. Feel good knowing the leftover kimchi you make goes directly to impoverished citizens. But you also get to taste your own creation on its own as well, plus cooking pancake with aged kimchi complimented with pork and tofu.

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!!
