Wonderful and useful—eager to get home and apply what I learned.
Thank you for your kind reviews. We are so grateful when knowing that you enjoyed well. Looking forward to your kind recommendations. Wishing you all the best! Best regards Ms. Ngoc Dung
My great fortune to have been the only student in yesterday evening's class, allowing Chef Dung to share insights that she could not with a larger class. Thank you Chef. Unfortunately, i turned up exhausted from a huge day's adventures and felt my energy fall away near the end. That affected my enegry and my hunger fell away. Still, i was taught some of the basics of vietnamese cuisine that i value a lot and will take home with me and share with family and friends.
Thank you very much for your great review. Hope that you had enjoyed well this cooking class with us. Looking forward to your kind recommendations. Wishing all the best to you. Best regards, Ms. Ngoc Dung
Staff were welcoming and organized. Venue was bright and clean. Chef spoke excellent English and gave good instruction, helping our youngest child when required. Food was fresh, recipes were tasty and our family of 4 (including teenager and 10 yr old) had a great time despite not being confident cooks. We left with full bellies and happy memories.
Thank you very much for your kind review. We are looking forward to your recommendation. Enjoy your trip and all our best wishes to you and your beloved ones. Faithfully yours, Ms. Ngoc Dung

Thank you for kind reviews and hope to welcome you again next time. Looking forward to your kind recommendations. Sincerely yours, Ngoc Dung 0908184448
The cook/teacher was excellent. She knew lots of tricks and tips and she was methodical about how she put everything together so that I would learn quickly. The ingredients involved were fresh and the resulting dishes were tasty. I made Vietnamese spring rolls, learned how to make carrot flowers, made delicious pho and learned the history of the name. I also made rice, flour, pancake with veggies and meat inside it. It was delicious. I would highly recommend this class. It was fun at the end to get a certificate, a cookbook and a lovely fan. Thank you so much for such a wonderful class - a Canadian in Vietnam.
Thank you very much for your nice reviews and your kind recommendations. All the best to you! Ms. Ngoc Dung
It was a very complete overview of how Vietnamese food is made, from going to the market to preparing it in the home from scratch. Very knowledgeable and informative teacher!
