Guided by passionate local hosts, you’ll prepare iconic dishes starting with banana blossom salad, phở, fresh spring rolls, and finishing your culinary journey with creamy coconut coffee in a cosy garden kitchen. Along the way, you’ll hear personal stories, cultural traditions, and tips passed down through generations.
This intimate setting creates a warm, family-style atmosphere where you cook, connect, and share a meal like a true local. It’s not about mastering techniques; it’s about living Vietnamese culture through every bite.
