Great night out!

Hua was so friendly and warmly invited us into her cooking space. It was a great small group environment and she explained all the ingredients, a very fun hands on experience and the food was super tasty!

Vietnam cooking class

Lua was excellent. The food and atmosphere were spot on and the view of the river is beautiful. She is well versed in the food and culture of Vietnam. Authentic cooking.

Worthwhile & a highlight

The cooking class with Lua was one of the highlights of my trip. Lua is such a gentle, warm and kind host who made me feel welcome and included from the moment I arrived. Her excellent English made everything easy to understand, and she explained each step clearly while making the class fun and relaxed. The river-view kitchen was a beautiful setting, and I loved learning how to prepare authentic Vietnamese dishes using fresh ingredients. Everything was well organised, hands-on and enjoyable, and I left with new cooking skills, wonderful memories and some delicious recipes to take home. If you're visiting the area, I highly recommend this cooking class. Thank you, Lua, for such a special and memorable experience!

Highly Recommend!

Our class with Lua was awesome! We learned to cook some delicious Vietnamese food that we could never have cooked alone. And Lua was super friendly. She also did a great job navigating one eater with a gluten intolerance (celiac) and one eater who does not eat red meat or shellfish. Could not recommend more highly!

Great cooking with beautiful view

A great cooking experience with an amazing view. Lua was a fantastic host who taught us to cook a variety of delicious Vietnamese dishes. A perfect way to spend the evening, and we'll worth the money

Instead of a restaurant, I prefer to cook for myself today. A great experience.

In a nice private atmosphere we visited Luna at home today to learn and enjoy Vietnamese cooking. From the first contact to the farewell, everything was well organized. At no time was it unclear to us. We loved Luna, her advice and information. The food was super delicious and we learned a lot. Luna has told us beyond the offer, tips and tricks on how we can cook the food even at home without one or the other ingredient, or what we can take for a while. We had a great evening. Should we be in town again, we will book a cooking class with Luna again. The cooking class was held in English. But even those who are not so proficient in the English language can easily attend this course. We wish Luna continued success and many dear chef-loving people who can enjoy the evening as we do. We say thank you !!! In a lovely, private setting, we visited Luna at her home today to learn and enjoy Vietnamese cooking. From our first contact to our farewell, everything was perfectly organized. Nothing was unclear at any point. We were thrilled with Luna, her advice, and the information she shared. The food was delicious, and we learned a great deal. Beyond what was offered, Luna shared tips and tricks on how we can prepare similar dishes at home, even without certain ingredients, and what we can substitute. We had a wonderful evening. If we're ever in town again, we'll definitely book another cooking class with Luna. The class was conducted in English, but even those who aren't fluent in English can easily participate. We wish Luna continued success and many more wonderful cooking enthusiasts who can enjoy the evening as much as we did. Thank you!

Amazing Cooking Lesson and Lunch

Lua was wonderful and was great at communicating prior to the visit and during the cooking lesson. She was very friendly and we made a large lunch with a 3 different courses pho, salad, and 3 kinds of bahn xeo (i mentioned the bananas on the table looked good and we made a banana one). My wife and I had an amazing time cooking and eating with Lua and can't wait to try the recipes she sent to us after the lesson.

The chef was informative articulate, and had a great sense of knowledge which of the food in the cuisine the class was welcoming. The food was prepped. Well he had very many things in place. It was simple. The food was flavorful. The demonstrations were good. The techniques were wonderful. You learn a lot from the experience such as that well worth the money well worth the trip.
