Terrific cooking class and market tour! - Alex (Trung) and Auntie were fabulous! Alex led us through a packed market and explained a variety of fruits, veggies, meats and customs while we purchased the ingredients for our cooking class. Auntie had everything ready for us at the cooking school. Everything was super clean, well organized and coordinated. Our group of 12 people made 3 items. The food we prepared was absolutely delicious. So much fun to buy, prep, cook and share a meal around the table.

Incredible tasty and amazing cooking class - We had an amazing cooking experience with Kim at Rose Kitchen. First we went to the local market and she explain all the ingredients. We were a nice group of 5. The location is very beautiful. We did all the cutting,the BBQ of the meat....and what to say it was all so delicious. We got a homemade mulberry licorice and a nice coconut coffee as well. I only can recommend Kim and her family kitchen if you want to learn about vietnamese cooking. Thank you so much
