Authentic Korean cooking class! - My wife and I had a great time with Junghee! She took us to the Mangwon markets (a hidden gem in Seoul), and then invited us into her lovely home for the cooking class. We learnt some great recipes that we can take home with us. We would really recommend this cooking class!

Excellent experience - learned some culture too which was good. - JungHee was so energetic and fun. Her English is perfect and she made the class so entertaining. The food was delicious and the dishes were easy to do. I would 100% recommend this class to others. There was a diverse group of us, some traveling in groups and some of us solo. It was super fun and I would do it again!!! Thank you “Sarah” for a great experience!!

Immerse yourself in Korean culture by spending a beautiful day - A wonderful morning, first around the Point of Sale and then at Sara's house, kind person and that puts you at ease. He guided us step by step in the preparation of authentic Korean food and the result was very satisfying. It 'was also very nice to eat all together cooked food, in a very friendly and familiar atmosphere. Absolutely recommended for those who want to immerse themselves in Korean culture.

10/10 Cooking Experience! - Junghee was such a fun tour guide and instructor! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and we really got to know the other people in our group.

A great way to do something a little different - She was so much fun and had great stories to tell. While entertaining us with stories about other travelers, meeting her husband, and some simple Korean phrases, she also led us type by step through three dishes (the fourth she did on her own in front of us). They turned out delicious and I’m excited to try the jeon especially, at home!

Big disappointment - Hello,
I received an email from tripadvisor confirming my booking for this cooking class and payment. And when we arrived this morning, we were not counted on the list. We had to leave again.
We had booked this course a long time ago on your website. We lost a morning in our journey to go there and this not to mention our disappointment at not being able to do this cooking course.
We do not understand that this course is cancelled. I have not received any email! We are furious.
