The half-day cooking class was great experience and we are very happy that we experienced it. Our chef Tan, is a great chef who speaks fluent English. The limo transfer picked us up at our hotel and took us to the culinary school. They also have a big garden next to the culinary school where they grow all the vegetables and mushrooms for the culinary school and the restaurant. Tan showed us all the vegetables we would cook with in their garden and we could pick which we like. Tan is a perfect chef and a teacher. He explained and showed us what to do. And as a result we cooked 4 delicius meals. Thank you for this experience and that we learned to cook delicious meals.

An amazing hands on experience. You get to learn a philosophy of cooking Vietnamese food not just a collection of recipes. It was great to visit the vegetable gardens to collect the ingredients we were going to use. We had 5 people and some of us were cooking different but similar dishes at the same time. There are extra staff observing and helping where necessary.

I enjoyed going around the farm and learning about the names of the plants and what they can do for our body. I picked the herbs that were going to be used for our dishes that day. Being out there in the farm and then cooking after is an experience that one should try when in Ho Chi Min. Attend this healthy cooking class at HCM Cooking School.
