Description

Chef Linh runs this out of a proper commercial kitchen – not someone’s home setup – and the whole thing starts at the central market where she walks you through every ingredient before you touch a wok. She picks you up from your hotel, handles the market shopping, and has everything prepped so you’re cooking actual dishes, not watching a demo. The dishwashing is taken care of too (which matters more than you’d think after a full morning of cooking).

Linh herself is the reason people rave about this place. She’s high-energy, technically sharp, and the kind of teacher who won’t let you phone it in. You pick your dishes from a full menu beforehand, so the class is built around what you actually want to learn.

This works well for families with older kids – the market walk alone is worth booking for. The skills transfer back home too, which is more than you can say for most cooking classes that are really just lunch with extra steps.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Choose your dishes from the menu before you arrive - the class is built around your selections, so it's worth spending five minutes on it rather than deciding on the spot at the market.
