Hoi An is renowned for its simple but divine cuisine. Many of the mouthwatering dishes served in the many restaurants here are not found elsewhere in the country. This distinction, and the superb array of fresh food products found in the local market, makes for an insightful and enjoyable cooking experience.
We include a short walking tour of the town with Ms. Vy, a well known and respected local restaurateur who has helped bring Hoi An's superb cuisines to a wider audience. Ms. Vy will escort you through the market place, bringing an in depth explanation and local knowledge to the herbs, spices, fruits and seafood that will need to be purchased in preparation for her cooking lesson that day. Guests will have the opportunity to learn more about Vietnamese foods and prepare their own dishes under Ms. Vy's guidance, before enjoying these dishes for a sumptuous lunch.
Highly recommended.
