Perla was so kind and informative during our cooking class experience. The food was phenomenal and she even gave us her local recommendations at the end of class. She’s very heart warming and knowledgeable! However when we booked and reserved the class they told us in writing it was 850,000VND. On the day of they told us that it was now 880,000VND because “of the exchange rate currently”. We booked in writing only 2.5 weeks prior and they refused to honor their original quote.

Had an amazing experience today at the Apronup Cooking Class in Hanoi. Vee was a wonderful teacher, very good English and knowledgeable about the ingredients and cooking techniques. Vee had no problem answering questions that I had which would help me prepare this food with ingredients that we have available in NZ. The market experience was great and the best bit .... sampling what was made. Tip for those doing the course, dont eat for hours before hand. Highly recommend!!

We booked a cooking class and Jen (Ngoc) was our instructor. We had such a fun time. We started off shopping for some of our ingredients to make our dishes. We learned so much about the ingredients and spices incorporated in the Vietnamese cuisines. We had a blast and Jen broke it down into easy steps so that we can remember and we even got the recipes! Definitely one of the best experiences we ve had in Hanoi so far!
