Exceptional experience - I recently attended a cooking class with Mai Home at the Saigon Culinary Art Center, and it was an exceptional experience. Mai Home is an incredibly talented and passionate chef who made the entire class both educational and enjoyable. The hands-on approach allowed us to dive into the vibrant world of Vietnamese cuisine, and the recipes were not only delicious but also easy to replicate at home. The facilities were top-notch, and the staff provided excellent support throughout the class. This course is a must for anyone looking to deepen their culinary skills and understand the rich flavors of Vietnam. Highly recommended!

Great culinary teaching and amazing food - We had a private tour and was shown through the markets and then onto Mai Home. Here we learnt some tricks of the trade and how to respect the process and recipes. Best of all we tasted everything we helped prepare and it was delicious.

Authentic Vietnamese cooking experience with excellent Chef Quy - Great afternoon with the Saigon culinary Art Centre with Chef Quy. We were met at the markets right on time, had walk through with excellent explanation around various spices and food stalls. As there was only 2 of us we felt like a ViP experience and a car took us from market to cooking school. Class was easy and learnt some good tips and the history of food . Highly recommended as authentic Vietnamese cuisine experience in local setting

Great option for a cooking tour - While we didn’t do as much shopping as I thought we would, she still gave an amazing tour of the market. After an epic bike ride through Saigon, we cooked a delicious 3-course meal. Her lessons were some I will definitely use in my own cooking from now on. Great experience!

Great Fun - Quy took us on an interesting an informative tour of the market, all in English! Then we had a smooth, enjoyable, FUN cooking experience. She was very accommodating to my gluten allergy, too. We even got to take home recipe books. 10/10 would recommend.

GREAT ! SUPER ! A MUST EXPÉRIENCE! - I have been privileged with a friend to experience Chef Quy culinary classes last February during the Lunar New Year celebrations in HCM. It was difficult to book on a day off but with much professionalism and kindness the cooking school managed to provide us with a very private class for 2 . We can not be more grateful and respectful ! Chef Quy introduced us to some efficient culinary tips that we will use even with western cuisine such as the degreasing process of meat or, the delicate use of stock after cooking. Our three course meal was announced and we could proceed with specific tool. Chef Quy was so professional, clear in her explainations, kind and fun. We have loved the roasting of spices, the fresh Spring rolls, the chicken pho and the fantastic crispy vegetable and pork pancake. Thanks a million 🙏 we truely recommand this school and the expert chef Quy. We will come back for sure !
