Fabulous cooking class and food tasting - highly recommend - The “Street Food” market tour and cooking class was one of my favourite experiences in Hoi An. It was very hands on class (not just a demonstration); the food was delicious and the chef was a great teacher - and also fun. The market tour was a great opportunity to visit local market food stalls and taste some produce. I did this class with my 15 year old son and we both loved it.

Excellent and engaging cooking class! - My husband and I loved the market trip and the cooking class with Daisy. So educational, fun, and DELICIOUS! Can't wait to try the recipes at home! We were looking for a class without the countryside and boat trip and this class fit the bill perfectly! Highly recommend!

Fabulous Cooking Experience - Green Mango is not only a really good restaurant it also hosts a cookery school. We had a great experience learning to prepare five different dishes under the expert guidance of Daisy. This is then followed by eating our self cooked meals for lunch. The facilities and practices are scrupulously clean and the ingredients fresh and tasty. Thank you Daisy and the rest of the Green Mango team.

Green Mango cooking class – a great chance to learn Vietnamese Cuisine - My wife and I took the Green Mango cooking class today with Hai Nguyen. A wonderful experience. We prepared five courses and there was a fair amount of hands-on. Good for me, I like to cook, still comfortable for my wife who has “retired from cooking”. Hai is a chef - he knows a lot, and wants the finished product to be the best. We prepared pho, deep-fried spring rolls, a chicken salad on banana blossom, grilled snapper and a sticky rice dessert. Some of these dishes were new to us, others we knew and wanted to learn so we can recreate at home. Again, you’re learning from a chef so a lot of tips, but just when it got a little intense there was a joke, a big laugh, and moving on. We were in Hoi An with a small group tour and our guide, a terrific guy, arranged this class for us. Hai provided very detailed recipes, including photos of important steps. This class was one of the highlights of our visit to Vietnam.

Great cooking experience. - We really enjoyed our cooking class with Daisy. We got a choice of menus which I liked, and only the main prepping was done, we did everything else so I would feel comfortable repeating these recipes at home. Highly recommend as a nice way to spend the afternoon in Old Town.

Fun, informative belly filler - A friend and I had Daisy guide us through five Vietnamese dishes and we really enjoyed all of them. We went through the market first, cooking took about two hours and then we eat. We hardly left anything, everything was excellent. We were then sent the recipes via email.
