Quick answer

Cook and eat everything — not a watch-only demo.

Overview

Vietnamese cooking is about balance — the play of fresh herbs, fish sauce, lime and chilli — and Hoi An is one of the best places in the country to learn it. This half-day class begins at a local market, where your chef-instructor walks you through the day's produce: the herbs, greens and river fish that go into the town's signature dishes.

Back at the kitchen you cook hands-on, not watch-only — typically four classic Hoi An and central-Vietnamese dishes — then sit down and eat everything you've made. You leave with the recipes, the techniques, and a much better eye for what you're ordering for the rest of your trip. Round-trip transfers from your Hoi An hotel are included.
