Unlike standard cooking classes, this activity is fully dedicated to Vietnam’s most iconic street food: banh mi, and pairs it with Hanoi’s legendary egg/coconut or salt coffee. You’ll not only taste these local favorites, but also learn how to make them completely from scratch in an intimate home kitchen setting.
From kneading your own baguette dough and pickling vegetables to brewing egg coffee with traditional methods, every step is hands-on and personal. Small groups ensure plenty of interaction with your local host, who shares not just recipes but the cultural stories behind each dish.
This is more than a class - it’s a true Hanoi experience that blends food, history, and hospitality, leaving you with both unforgettable memories and the skills to recreate Vietnam’s flavors back home.
