We did the street food tour with Alex. We would highly recommend. Alex was a great guide, who brought us to some amazing street food vendors in Hanoi, which you would never figure out yourself! Great start to our time in Hanoi. Alex was also very friendly and so knowledgeable about the area and the family run food places we went to!

Booked: Hidden Alley Food Tour in Hanoi

Was able to from local dishes what we wanted to learn to make… food was delicious and so much of it.. we were able take away leftovers… then the support After the cooking class is exceptional, I can ask Any questions about the cuisine and cooking techniques afterwards too. Additionally it was pouring when we arrived and we were saturated, the hospitality was outstanding. Huyen gave me a spare set of clothes while drying mine out, really felt part of her family. Absolutely recommend this cooking class.

Booked: Ninh Binh Cooking Class in Buffalo Cave

Amazing experience! Learning about the different coffees and Vietnamese culture was great! We were also able to taste different Vietnamese wines made in-house by Luka. Only downside is that on seeksophie it states that lunch will be provided, but due to the different booking the company has we did not get lunch. However we got a decent discount towards our purchases. Just something to be aware of if you book through this platform. Still highly recommend this experience! Also the egg coffee was amazing!

Booked: Brews & Bites: Hanoi Coffee Workshop with Traditional Meal

It’s an interesting and eye opening experience with the local market tour. Chef Duyen is very helpful in explaining and answering our questions. The hands on cook our lunch was also great fun for us, love our small group and get to know two new friends from Indonesia & Switzerland. Love the local cuisine we cooked and were so full. Also, thank so Chef Duyen’s two little helpers/photographer during the session. Highly recommend to experience a local home cooked meal.

Booked: Cook Hometown Recipes with Gordon Ramsay Fire

This was a great experience and was so informative! We learned about Vietnamese coffee and how to properly use a phin to brew coffee, as well as learning how to make egg coffee and coconut coffee (and got to try them all). The host was great, very knowledgeable and open to answering all of our questions. I chose this workshop because it wasn’t as long as some, and for me it was perfect. I would definitely recommend it.

Booked: The Art of Vietnamese Coffee: From Phin to Egg Coffee

Lovely host and hostess. We chatted Vietnamese tea culture, wild 20m tall tea trees and the price of cars (4 billion!). The process of making the tea is an act of patience and love taking over a year to properly infuse. Contrary to Japanese tea ceremonies (a solemn ritual of strict decorum) or Chinese tea ceremonies (a measuring contest of clout through flowery pomp and circumstance), Vietnamese tea is meant to be shared and enjoyed together. Thanks for the wonderful lesson and insights!
