Highlights

Enjoy a private Vietnamese cooking class in a local home in Ho Chi Minh City with host, Son. He thoroughly enjoys hosting travelers from all over the world, and introducing them to his Vietnamese heritage and culture. Son is a passionate home chef, who recently started his own restaurant in District 4. Through this coking experience you will get a sneak-peak into a local’s everyday life, learn to cook from family recipes, learn about Vietnamese culture and culinary traditions, all while sharing stories and an authentic meal together!


• 2-hour private, hands-on Vietnamese cooking class in a local's home
• Introduction to Vietnamese culture and cuisine
• Vegetarian, vegan, lactose and gluten free options available


If you select the "Market" tour grade option when booking, before your cooking class Son will drive you to the Pham The Hien wet market. It’s a buzzing indoor and outdoor market, you will come across vendors selling fresh produce, clothing, household items and street food.

Itinerary

  • District 8 Bus Station

    This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Learn to cook two dishes in your 2-hour hands-on Vietnamese cooking class in Ho Chi Minh City with Son. Firstly, learn to make a Vietnamese fish dipping sauce (nuoc mam cham) – you will use a recipe passed down from Son’s mother, her secret recipe, that ensures the dipping sauce remains unfermented for a long time. Then learn to make Vietnamese noodle spring rolls and a sweet tangy sauce (bún chả giò) – this again, is a special recipe that originates from Son’s hometown. Or then you can learn to cook Vietnamese rice porridge with chicken salad (chao goi ga) – the beloved chicken duo that claims the center at Son’s dinner table! After cooking, join Son at the table and share the meal you helped prepare. Through this experience you will get a sneak-peak into a local’s everyday life, learn about Vietnamese culture and culinary traditions, all while sharing stories and an authentic meal together!
