Making my Vietnamese food dreams come true - Chef Alice picked me up at my hotel with an huge smile and a nice air conditioned van. She explained all the details of our farm tour and we arrived an hour and a half later. The location is a quiet agricultural area with water buffalo and stray dogs. Inside the main building I observed the cashew side of their business and got to try the fresh and delicious nuts. We spent about an hour picking various vegetables and herbs for our cooking class. (I picked my first okra and curry leaves.) Then we returned to the prep area and began our guided sauce making and all together made 4 super dishes. This is a great way to appreciate Vietnamese food and I’m excited to incorporate what I learned in my kitchen.

Exciting day trip - We had a total private tour for the whole day, which made it even more special. The whole day trip was amazing! First, harvesting the food, the cooking class and then the Cu Chi tunnels in the end - such an exciting day. Alice was such a lovely tour guide. All in all would recommend this tour to everyone! We totally loved it

The best experience in Vietnam - This cooking class is definitely worth it.If you’re trying to take this class,Don’t hesitate it. Now I have more experience and knowledge about vietnamese food after I took this class. And the cooking teacher,Tien She was so enthusiasm person about teaching. If I had another chance to take this class,I’ll go for it. The only thing you need to be careful about is taking the class on a hot day

An Amazing Experience! - My husband and I did the cooking class together. I would encourage anyone who’d like to learn viet nam recipes to attend. We cooked and tasted delicious recipes with a personal chef. She encouraged and assisted when needed the whole time. It was fantastic!

Amazing Learning Experience Especially for Farm to Table Culinary Journey - I thoroughly enjoyed this course as I was most interested in the farm to table concept so I can grow my own herbs, vegetables and fruits and cook and eat healthier. My instructor Alice was fun to learn from and simplified the concepts of Vietnamese cooking . Also had the honour to meet owner/Chef Tan so hopefully I can return and enrol in more specialized Vietnamese cuisine and impress my friends even more. Looking forward to returning home to Canada and applying my newly acquired Vietnamese culinary skills!

Ticking two boxes in one trip, well worth it. - We were picked up at 7.30am by Alice, our guide and chef, with a driver. The trip took about an hour and a half, out into the country so we got to see some of the surroundings as well. When we got to the organic farm we went outside to learn about some of the plants that we were going to be cooking with. Headed back inside for local snacks before starting the cooking lessons. The lunch consisted of a four course meal which was tasty and even better-we had made it, guided by Alice, who was very helpful and patient with us. After lunch-we drove 15 minutes to the Cu Chi tunnels for a guided and informative walk through the complex.

Best cooking class! - My friend and I did an afternoon cooking class and it was amazing, we were the only 2 doing the class at that time so it was basically a private experience. The main reason we picked her is because of the halal option for me and they had their certificate on display. Our guide/chef was Alice. She was amazing and made the experience so great she explained stuff in detail, told us about the local history. It was hard to narrow the options but we both went for pho and it was very authentic, it shocked us how nice it was, this is thanks to Alice’s guidance. We would strongly recommend booking this as part of your experience they pick you up from the hotel and drop you off which is an added bonus! Alice also took the best pictures of us!

Best authentic experience for Vietnamese culture and cuisine - I feel so much more knowledgeable about Vietnamese cuisine and confident to cook the dishes after this tour. We really felt immersed in the process from picking the ingredients to putting everything together. Our guide Tien was very friendly and did an excellent job engaging us throughout the tour. I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an authentic experience in Vietnam!
