Full description

This is a 2.5-hour experience in Hoi An, built around Hoi An. It is run by Jolie Cooking Class, 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 Visit to an organic farm and local market, Coffee tasting at a local coffee shop, Hands-on Vietnamese cooking class, All ingredients and cooking equipment and Meal prepared during the class. It does not cover Hotel pickup and drop-off and Personal expenses, 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.

Jolie Cooking Class 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 Jolie Cooking Class before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

We had an unforgettable time cooking with Jolie! The day started at “Grandma’s” organic garden where we picked fresh herbs, followed by a market visit with Rosie where we bought local fruits and vegetables -including some delicious ones we had never tried before. We then stopped at a lovely café for salted coffee and traditional coffee with condensed milk. Finally, we went to the kitchen and cooked an amazing variety of Vietnamese dishes in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Jolie’s team were warm, funny and welcome. One of the best experiences we have had in Vietnam. We will highly recommend Jol

Frequently Asked Questions

The price does not cover hotel pickup and drop-off and personal expenses. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
The Hoi An old town ticket (a small fee that covers five heritage houses or halls) is included when the listing says so; otherwise it is bought at the entrance and the guide explains which houses to use it on. The old town is closed to motorbikes for most of the day, and My Son is best at opening time before the tour buses.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
