Chef Alice is a delight! - I am so glad I decided to do this half day cooking class! It’s a wonderful experience. Very impressed with Chef Alice who is so knowledgeable about all the plants grown at the organic farm. I was on my own, but there was also a US family with 3 young children and it was lovely to see them exposed to how food grows naturally - and to have their own cooking station to prepare thr delicious 4 (or was it 5?) course meal. I learned a huge amount about creating authentic Vietnamese sauces and dishes. You not only receive a certificate at the end of the course, but each recipe printed out. I left with a big bagful of their delicious (and healthy) cashew nuts and spice blends. A definite must when visiting HCM city!!

That’s right! - The tour guide was incredibly passionate about cooking, teaching, and guiding us throughout the tour! Alice Doan is everything we needed, literally and metaphorically ❤️ She’s a chef, a comedian, a teacher. Without her, we would not have been great cooks 🤩 Not to mentioned that she’s a real life barbie! 🥰

An unforgettable day at the HCM Cooking School - My daughter and I traveled in Vietnam for nearly a month and our day spent with Alice at the HCM Cooking School was one of the highlights of our trip. We were picked up at our hotel by Alice and her driver and by the time we reached the cooking school we knew we were in for a wonderful time. She is so personable as well as knowledgeable about the farm and gave us details about the plans for the day. Alice grew up in the area and while we picked the vegetables, for the meal we would later prepare, Alice was educating us on their use in the local cuisine. We also learned so much about the farm itself as well as the Cu Chi Tunnels and local rubber trees that we would visit later that day. Alice brings such passion to her work and she is a gifted story teller. We were guided on prepping and then cooking each of our 4 courses, one better than the next. My daughter and I are vegetarians and we were accommodated without feeling deprived. We had an amazing day and are looking forward to recreating the meal at home for our family! Oh, they also have a cashew business and OMG the cashews are the best I have ever had! Thank you Alice and HCM Cooking School for an amazing day!

Such a fun filled day with Alice - one of the highlights of our 3 week holiday - We had a fantastic day with Alice who taught us all about the farm and herbs / veg we harvested including their medicinal properties. She guided us clearly through the cooking class and the results were delicious! In particular the vegetable curry I made was better than I could have dreamed of making myself! The class was beginner friendly and in total we made 4 dishes each. We were picked up and dropped off directly from our hotel and it was a comfortable drive. I'm happy we combined our tour with the Cu Chi Tunnels tour in the afternoon (just a 15min drive) also led by Alice who was very knowledgeable and kindly answered all our questions. Thanks Alice for making the trip so memorable and special for us! p.s. Vegan options were available as well - just message in advance 😊

Fantastic tour with a lovely tour guide! - An absolute treat of a day trip experience to the countryside for a cooking class and visiting the Cu Chi tunnels. Our guide Alice was amazing and radiated positivity and cheerfulness the entire time. She walked us through every step of the cooking process and make sure we all ended up with delicious food at the end. The second half of the day was to the tunnels where she walked us through the history and backstory of the tunnel system. I opted to also visit the firing range and shoot an AK47 which was definitely a fun experience to round off an already great day. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting HCMC!

Outstanding Cooking experience. - We thoroughly enjoyed this experience which was teamed with a visit to the very unique and special Cu Chi tunnels with Alice, who is an extremely knowledgable Chef, and tour guide. We first picked the ingredients for our class from the Organic garden, then a very detailed and hands on cooking class, the food was amazing, the stories incredible, and touring the garden and Mushroom cave, so interesting. The visit to the tunnel was very thought provoking and well set up with excellent displays of a very difficult time in Vietnams history. Again, Alice was extremely knowledgable, in the history. Alice and the helpers, and Chef Tan, were all friendly, hospitable, and although we have done other classes, this was the best by far. Thank you Chef Tan, Alice and the team, for a most wonderful experience in your beautiful Country. Plenty fo our photos on the School Cooking Facebook page.

Tasty, special, and entertaining - Our class was with Alice who was very friendly, energetic and knowledgeable when we asked questions not just about the food, but about Vietnam in general. Everything we made tasted delicious. I look forward to making the dishes again as we were given the recipes.

It’s a great and surprising experience. We did it as a family and have no regrets. We were able to recharge our batteries. - We visited the organic farm followed by a culinary class with our super chef Alice. Who took the time to explain to us how the farm works, we visited and then cooked the food taken from the farm. It’s an experience to do! I recommend Elise, Jérôme, Ivann
