A total tofu lover like me had a wonderful experience over with the family, and my beautiful guide Ngoc! She was so welcoming and clear in her instructions. The whole itineary was well planned. Left the place feeling welcomed, and knowledgable about not just tofu making, but life in simplicity. Perfect for solo travellers too! :)

I had a great time here. The process of making the mosaic was explained well and there was a relaxing atmosphere where I could take my time to make the mosaic. It was so fun!

We had the most fantastic morning with Ngoc and her family. It was fascinating to have a hands on experience learning the traditional art of making tofu and to see the tofu being made and sold at market within an hour is really special! We have also taken away valuable information for what to look out for for authentic tofu back in the UK!
We both had a chance to make the tofu ourselves and eat a whole fresh block - as vegans who have eaten a lot of tofu in our lives this was by far the best we have ever tasted and to understand how much of a staple tofu is in Vietnamese life was inspiring!
We shared many stories and heard a lot about local life - visited the market, ate snacks and lots of tofu before a huge hearty breakfast back at Ngoc’s home where we felt so welcomed - like old friends!
We got to visit a local family who changed over from traditional hand making tofu to using machines to see the evolution of where it is going!
We wished we could have stayed longer and the whole experience has been a highlight in our trip to Vietnam so far! can not reccomend the early start enough! go early so you get to see the bustling markets and the kind women working there who welcomed us and showed us their skills!
Thankyou so much Ngoc - we hope your buisness takes off and you find your tofu way! thankyou so much for everything especially the gift of guava leaf tea and your peanut skin salt addition to our rice - a new favourite 🙂

A wonderful afternoon and peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi. I recommend to anyone visiting Hanoi for an authentic experience and fun way to create your own souvenir and learn a new skill.
Thank you 🙏 🤗

It was the best experience. Ngoc gave my daughter and I are only personal Tofu making experience and then cook us a homemade vegan meal in her house. It was so authentic and so much fun. I highly recommend it.
