Great fun. Chef Vu is full of energy and you can't help smiling all the way through. We were in a large group but he still had time for everyone. Recipes sent later is a nice touch, and starting the trip off on a Cyclo tour was an experience if you know anything about Saigon traffic. Best thing we did all trip

Chef Vu was amazing. I went with my friends having no knowledge on how to cook Vietnamese food, Chef Vu made everything so easy to understand. We cooked spring rolls, vietnamese pancakes and pho. Everything tasted insanely good. Definitely recommend this.

The class was amazing. People were so very friendly and patient while we tried and succeeded in cooking delicious Vietnamese dishes. Chef Vu and staff were very kind, helpful and informative and made the experience very enjoyable and definitely worth the money.

We had a great time on this tour and cooking class with Chef Vu. Starting with a pickup by cyclo at our hotel and short bike tour of the city centre. We then joined our tour guide at the market to buy ingredients for our cooking course. Then we went to the restaurant and cooked our meals with training on knife skills and balancing flavours in Vietnamese cooking.

Chef Vu is a terrific, knowledgable, and patient teacher. Lastly, we were able to enjoy our work and eat the food we prepared.

A really fun and educational tour with hands-on learning of Vietnamese cuisine.

Really well thought out and organized cooking class. Everything prepared for maximum time use and opportunity to do all the “fun” cooking parts. Chef was interactive and easy to follow.

Overall a great experience, got to eat what we made, got a cyclo through the city and got copies of the recipes so we can cook them at home. We had a small group (myself and my travel companion with only one other person) which meant we had a personal experience.

The few cons are that there is the assumption you can cook and have cooked with oil and fire - we were quite hesitant to create the fire in the pan as we are used to electric stoves and it was expected for us to try it despite our hesitancy - same with deep frying, Chef Vu helped if we were struggling a lot but unsure how this would go in a bigger class size.
The cycle drivers expected a tip and looked unhappy until we gave them more than what we had originally given them (we were happy to tip and would have without being asked but felt a bit uncomfortable considering we were tipping well).
It was cool to see the market in the morning when the food stalls were open (and fresh) but our tour guide has limited English so it was hard to ask questions and answer what we wanted to cook but we understand we’re coming to a non English speaking country so weren’t too fussed.
Overall a great experience but just some things to be prepared for
