Wonderful vegetarian cooking class at an nhien gardens - Had a great experience with nhien in the vegetarian cooking class. Nhien was a great hostess and we started off with a tour and an interesting history of the place and her family. This was followed by cooking 2 dishes and ended with a great and delicious dinner at their restaurant.

If you do nothing else in Hue you must do this - inspirational - My words will not do justice to what was truly the most lovely and enjoyable afternoon with Nhien and the team. This isn’t just a cooking course this is history, culture, human understanding with the cooking bonding it all together like all good recipes. Nhien shares the heritage of her family and shows you the starting of their history and takes you through to modern day and how the restaurant was formed. A richness of thoughts which left me in a truly grateful place to have experienced. And the food - well nothing more than stunning Thank you for sharing Nhien

A culinary experience not to miss! - I went with a tour group : first a staff member from the restaurant took us around the market where they source some ingredients supporting the local community and we had an amazing cooking class, ate that and other dishes from the menu, the food was so delicious. The cafe is in a beautiful location with a feeling of such peace and zen. To top it off we were so lucky to hear about the family dynasty and lineage. I walked away feeling truly inspired, grateful and humbled by the experience. Looking forward to the next visit when I return to Hue again 😍🙏💗.

10/10 Absolutely loved the experience! - Honestly such an incredible experience. Nhien was truly amazing. She gave us a tour of the grounds and touched on the history of her family. Her passion for her culture and food is shown so greatly and the food was absolutely delicious. Cannot recommend her cooking class enough! This class was one of the highlights of the entire trip.

A fabulous visit to a unique venue - Nhiem is a beautiful person. She has perfect English and a great sense of fun. She is very well organised, the cooking classroom is very well set up and the food we made was great. Combined with more food from the restaurant we had a superb lunch, and a delightful tour of the garden. A great day out.

A culinary delight like no other! - What an incredible experience this was! We enjoyed hearing the story of the two sisters, their family history, their life overseas especially NZ and to hear so much more about the rich culture and food of Vietnam.
