If you love food and history, this bánh mì making workshop is the best way to go beyond just tasting Hanoi’s famous sandwich - you’ll understand how it came to be and bake your own baguette from scratch!What makes this Seek Sophie experience special is that it goes deeper than just learning to “make a sandwich”. You’ll learn how French colonial history shaped Vietnam’s most beloved street food, discover the secret to perfect pickled veggies, and sauces that balance tangy, savory, and umami notes. No bánh mì is complete without the perfect drink pairing - Vietnamese coffee. Specifically, Hanoi is known for its unique brewing styles, and you'll learn how to brew the famous egg coffee, coconut coffee, or salted coffee.If you're a foodie who loves staying connected to the places you visit through food and stories, this is a must do.What to ExpectHands-on bánh mì class: knead dough, bake the baguette, and layer fillings just how you like itUncover the fascinating French-Vietnamese backstory behind the humble bánh mìChoose your filling - lemongrass pork, chicken, or tofu - plus zingy pickles and house-made saucesVietnamese coffee workshop: make (and sip) egg, coconut, or salted coffee like a true localDine with your hosts and fellow travellers, sharing stories and freshly made dishesTake home digital recipes, a cooking certificate (on request), and skills to wow your friends back homeGood to KnowNo cooking experience needed - just bring an appetite and your curiosityVegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available - just let the host know in advanceGuests aged over 80 and those with disabilities receive 50% off - get in touch to applyLuggage storage (up to 2 days) and optional use of showers provided at no extra charge
