Learn how to cook authentic Hoi An dishes - from purchasing the ingredients in the local market to tasting your creations.
Start the day with a drink at Hai Scout Café and continue to visit Hoi An’s colorful market where you'll experience the amazing sights, sounds and aromas of this busy market. Interact with the local sellers and purchase some of the ingredients to be used in the cooking lesson later. Next, board the Red Bridge boat for a leisurely cruise (25 minutes) along the Hoi An River to the Red Bridge Cooking School.
On arrival, explore the cooking school’s herb and vegetable garden, before learning about some of Hoi An’s and Vietnam’s well-known dishes. Each dish is first demonstrated by the Red Bridge chef’s, before you prepare the same dish yourself.
Included in the class is a brief introduction to Vietnamese food carving (plate decoration). After the lesson, sit down and eat what we have cooked!
