Bong Restaurant and Bar
Description
A family-run spot in Hoi An that does double duty as a solid restaurant and a cooking class operation. The classes cover the classics – spring rolls, banh xeo, wok dishes – and include a market run with the family before you cook, which is the part that actually makes it worth doing over the dozens of other cooking class options in town.
The garden cooking area is the real draw for classes (old-school setup, atmospheric). On the restaurant side, the grilled snapper and mango salad are the orders to make. The wok-fried pork and caramel pork also hold up well.
Cash only, so plan accordingly. The host Manh gets named specifically and repeatedly in reviews, which tells you everything about the service style here – personal, not transactional.
