Cooking Class in Hoi An by Cam Thanh Tours Plus
Description
A cooking class that skips the market detours and gets straight to the cooking – which is exactly what most people actually want. You’ll make four Vietnamese dishes in a small group setting on the river, and the food you produce is good (not the watered-down tourist version of Vietnamese cooking).
Instructors Quan and Lily get called out by name repeatedly, which tells you something about consistency. Quan in particular has a gift for keeping things entertaining when hands are idle, and both handle kids without making the class feel like a kindergarten activity.
You leave with a physical cookbook of the recipes, which is a rare practical touch. The crispy pancakes (banh xeo) seem to be the crowd favorite – plan to make them the first week you’re home.
Highlights
- Focused format - straight to cooking, no mandatory market or garden detours
- Small group sizes that allow for real instruction
- Cookbook of recipes included to take home
- One review mentions the class location as Hanoi, suggesting possible confusion between branches
