Full description

This is a 2.5-hour experience in Da Nang. It is run by Dich vu du lich lang que Cam Thanh, 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 main chef, Ingredient for cooking class, Unlimited passion juice and Meal with specialties. It does not cover Hotel pickup and drop-off and Other Personal expenses not mention, 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.

Dich vu du lich lang que Cam Thanh 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 Dich vu du lich lang que Cam Thanh before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

I had an authentic experience at a local home with the lovely host Jenny, who patiently and cheerfully taught me how to prepare two Vietnamese dishes. The ingredients were top-notch, and the portions were incredibly generous!

This cooking class is great ! Jenny is an amazing host & cook. It is a pleasure to learn by her side. We made veggie spring rolls with green beans. Vietnamese pho with Tofu rather than beef. For a bit of sweetness, we made passion fruit. The food was excellent. It’s ok if you don’t finish your plate. She will pack spring rolls in a doggy bag for you ! Snack for the beach ! Woot woot ! Her place is very cosy ! You’ll feel at home. If you share with her your itinerary she will be able to guide you and give advice.

On a company trip, we had a free day and so I decided to book a cooking class for myself. The pin location is at a house across from the actual venue, but it was not much issue to be redirected. Jenny was really hospitable, was a great host at her home and kitchen. I was the only booking for the afternoon. She let me know that no matter the enrollee count, she would prepare ingredients for at least two people always. I've only just started cooking in general, but the pacing was great and really felt like prepping food and cooking with a friend :) She let me use up all the ingredients, and so I

Had a lovely time learning to make spring rolls, pho and passion fruit juice. The passion fruit juice was made from scratch and was our favourite part. Jenny was a great host and explained the process for all the recipes really well. Thank you for a great morning and great experience!

I really loved this experience! What I liked it that it was at Jenny her home. So it's not the typical tourist activity. She was super friendly and the food was delicious. I can't wait to remake it at home <3 I would 100% recommend this cooking class! Her English is amazing!!
