Hoi An Matlagingskurs

This was such an amazing experience!! Even though it was SUPER hot, I would absolutely do it again! The cooking class was so much fun, and our teacher, One (I hope I spelled her name right!), was the absolute best. She was super patient, kind, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. We made SO much food and even got to play with fire 🔥😂 Special guests were some adorable puppies, which made it even better! The bamboo boats pick you up right next to the restaurant. The ride starts super peaceful, then you get to the exciting part where everyone starts spinning and it basically turns into a party! The crab fishing wasn’t that interesting to me. I would have rather done the lantern release, but I think I chose the wrong option. If you book, make sure to add the lantern activity! Learn from me lol HIGHLY recommend! Thank you, One!! ❤️

This was very convenient - from hotel transfer to the activity itself. Instructor was very nice and accommodating. It was an engaging experience! Highly recommended especially for those who don't want to be overstimulated with lots of touristy activities.

Instruktøren var veldig vennlig og sprudlende, og ga hjelp når vi trengte det, uten å tvinge oss til å gjøre noe vi ikke ville. Maten vi lagde var ekstremt deilig, enkel og morsom å lage. De fem rettene (ikke inkludert dessert) var enkle, men passet veldig godt sammen, og jeg likte at jeg kunne justere hver rett etter min smak (salthet, krydder osv.). Det eneste man må være forsiktig med er flamberingen av bahn xiao for å gjøre den ekstra sprø, da flammen er ganske stor og den varme oljen kan sprute, men selv om du blir redd, tar instruktøren raskt over for deg, og du trenger ikke å gjøre det hvis du ikke vil. Kokosnøttbåtene var veldig morsomme, med mulighet til å fiske krabber og snurre til «Oppa Gangnam Style» mens vi hadde på oss vietnamesiske hatter. Vi dro for å ta lyktebåten ved solnedgang, og utsikten var fantastisk, da du hadde solnedgangen i den ene enden og kunne se elven begynne å lyse opp mens himmelen mørknet. Alt i alt en flott opplevelse og ekstremt verdt prisen!

Vi hadde en fantastisk tid på Leinas' matlagingskurs! Hvis du har tid i Hoi An, bør du absolutt prøve dette! Hun var supervennlig, og partneren min og jeg var de eneste der, så vi fikk en kul opplevelse; de delte også bilder av oss som lagde mat etter kurset. Veldig gøy, veldig tilgjengelig og fire supergode måltider som vi gleder oss til å gjenskape hjemme.

Let me add a Chinese review; Chinese people don't deceive Chinese people. This afternoon's itinerary was just for me, but Huong was enthusiastic and friendly throughout the reception and teaching. The driver, the boatman, the coconut boatman, and the lady who gave me a massage were all incredibly friendly. The activities were very rich: I took a boat on the river, rode a coconut boat, and had a super comfortable shoulder, neck, and leg massage (much more comfortable than the one I had last night in Hoi An Ancient Town!). Huong's teaching was also very relaxed and enjoyable, and she even gave me a delicious coconut coffee. Someone helped record videos and take photos throughout the entire process, so the service was very comprehensive and thorough. With hotel pick-up and drop-off included, I really have to praise the rich experience I got for this price! Thank you to the team for diligently hosting even just one person!

Ana Mae (spelling?) and Ruby were great tour guides through the market. Riding through the rice fields on bikes and getting to see water buffalo was a fun way to travel. When we got to the farm, we were able to smell and identify some new herbs that we had not heard of before. Na’s cooking class was so fun and informative. We got to enjoy our delicious food by the river, and it was so peaceful. Ending our day with a quick massage, fresh fruit, and tea was great. Thank you to everyone involved. We had such a great time. We also have some great pictures and videos to memorialize the day.

Først vandret vi rundt på det travle matmarkedet i Hoi An med guiden vår, Quan. Deretter tok vi en båt til kokosnøttlundområdet, hvor vi byttet direkte til en rund bambusbåt for en tur rundt kokosnøttrærne. Det var veldig fredelig, og vi virket ikke å være blant mange turister. Kokkekurset var flott. Fire retter, så sørg for at du ikke spiser en stor hotellfrokost på forhånd, slik vi gjorde! En taxi ble organisert for returen til hotellet vårt. Mye for pengene.
