The cooking class for foreign tourists is located on a floor of a house tucked away in an alley on Yersin Street, District 1, 450 meters away from Bến Thành Market. The classroom space is divided into four areas: a large kitchen, a row of cooking practice tables, a rest area, and an outdoor charcoal grilling space. The class menu is divided according to the culinary themes of the three regions, with the menu changing every three months.
Cooking class in Saigon
The tourists attending this class learn about Southern Vietnamese cuisine with four dishes including spring rolls, banana flower salad, beef wrapped in betel leaf, and bánh xèo. The class often includes an experience of visiting the market to explore local ingredients, which tourists can choose to participate in. Before cooking, the instructor will thoroughly explain the ingredients used in the dishes.
Ingredients to make Vietnamese “bo la lot”
The tourists take photos of their results after the bánh xèo cooking lesson. The class representative says that the success rate of foreigners making the dishes for the first time is over 90% because there are always staff assisting the guests throughout the practice process. A session of making four dishes usually lasts three hours, including rest time and enjoying the dishes.
