There are dozens of cooking classes available in Hoian and which one you should choose simply depends on preference. Some are held in restaurants in town, with an abridged crash course that take as little as an hour, while others are drawn out into day-long affairs combined with a motor biking, cycling or boating to fishing villages and herb gardens. Do you want a class in town or a rural setting? A restaurant or a home? Does it include a fresh market tour? Do you prefer demonstration style or really getting hands-on, doing all the prep yourself? Want to learn the popular dishes or something that requires a more adventurous palate and dexterous culinary skills? One thing is for sure: you won’t leave hungry.

ITINERARY
VIETNAM TOURS would love to recommend you some best cooking classes in Hoian Town:
1. Classes concentrate on local recipes including "Cao Lau" and "white rose" (banh vac: a delicate, subtly flavored shrimp dumpling topped with crispy onions)
We visit Hoi An's colourful and bustling central market by boat in small groups with an English speaking tour guide where participants learn about; the uses of different fresh noodles, how to recognize and buy fresh fish, fresh and dried spices, fresh herbs and their uses in our recipes and medicinal purposes, rice and different grains. You will also see and taste many exotic fruits.
We then return to cooking class by boat where you will be guided around the many live food counters in this unique first-of-its-kind interactive dining venue in Vietnam. Here you can see, smell, hear, taste, touch and interact with many different food making processes. You can try samples from over 10 different food counters including banh mi, dumplings, pickles, weird & wonderful foods, our rationing foods in Vietnam that were in place for 45 years, sweet treats and many more. You can see rice paper being made from ground rice and water, laid out to dry on bamboo and then later roasted for rice crackers to eat with Hoi An chilli sauce and salads, various shapes and sizes of rice noodles. Experience our famous local noodle dish Cao Lau, see the noodles rolled out by hand and cut in the traditional way with a long knife and then steamed over an open fire. You may participate in many of the street food counters; cutting noodles, making rice paper and wontons, using the bun noodle machine and more.
The cooking lesson runs about 2.5 hours – our cooking teachers first demonstrate each dish before you prepare the same dishes yourselves. After the lesson we all sit down and eat what we have cooked. You will receive a copy of the recipes and a Vietnamese cooking utensil to take home.
2. Another well-rated restaurant-cooking school with classes taking place at their beautiful riverside villa or a quickie class at coffee house in town. The classic half-day program includes market tour and boat ride to their location. A sample detail program as below:
Meet at the Cafe in Hoian’s Old Town. From there we will head to Hoian's colorful market. Explore the market and interact with local vendors to purchase some fresh ingredients for today’s cooking class. Next, board the boat for a leisurely 25min cruise along the Hoian River to the Cooking School. Discover the school's herb and vegetable garden. Learn to cook and help prepare five traditional dishes to enjoy for lunch. You will also be entertained and taught some special techniques at the fruit and vegetable carving demonstration.
3. For a homier experience, you can’t go wrong with our third recommendation, a small class held in the lcoal’s own kitchen. She’s great and if you have kids she is exceptional. The class differentiates itself by being held in a real family home (where you are instantly embraced as a treasured relative) and by having every participant choose one dish from an extensive menu of 68, then you learn to make your dish as a group.
Kindly contact our travel consultants to check the availability and best rate for your favorite cooking class in Hoi An.
