Full description

This is a 2.5-hour experience in Da Nang. It is run by Da Nang Happy Tour, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japanese cooking classes usually build a meal around dashi, the kombu and bonito stock that sits under miso soup, simmered dishes and noodle broths, and then one or two headline dishes: rolled sushi or nigiri, gyoza, tempura, okonomiyaki, or a bento box. Wagashi classes make the seasonal sweets served with tea from sweet bean paste. Most classes run two to three hours in a home kitchen or a small studio, and vegetarian versions replace the bonito with a kombu-shiitake dashi. You eat what you make, and Japanese teachers are precise about technique.

The price covers Cooking ingredients, Unlimited Passion juice, Lunch/Dinner and Recipe. It does not cover Hotel pickup and drop-off, Other Drinks and Other Expenses not mentioned, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Da Nang Happy Tour sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Da Nang Happy Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Attività simpatica da svolgere in un pomeriggio in cui si ha meno da visitare, ci siamo trovati bene ed è stato divertente! Le ricette da preparare sono 2, forse sarebbe ancora più entusiasmante aggiungere un’altra ricetta alla lista :) Grazie ancora

Der Kochkurs mit Jenny war ein absolutes Highlight meiner Vietnam-Reise! Es war alles bestens vorbereitet und es hat großen Spaß gemacht mit Jenny zu kochen. Sie hat alles sehr gut erklärt und war unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Am Ende hat das Essen fantastisch geschmeckt und ich freue mich schon sehr alles zu Hause selbst zu kochen. Ich habe wirklich was gelernt. Vielen Dank für dieses großartige Erlebnis!!!
