Private Market Tour and Vietnamese Cooking Class in the Heart of Hanoi

Hoàn Kiếm Trip Overview

Visit a local Hanoian market and return home to cook authentic Vietnamese with a grandmother and her daughter Hang in Hanoi’s Old Quarter.

Discover and sample Vietnamese fruit, herbs and regional produce and watch as locals bargain with vendors at a lively Hanoian market. Then enter Hong’s kitchen to prepare an authentic Vietnamese salad (like papaya or banana blossom) and either their family’s recipe for cha ca (grilled fish) or spring rolls from scratch. Cha ca is a Hanoian specialty of grilled, marinated fish, stir-fried with fresh herbs and eaten with vermicelli. If you prefer to learn to make pork spring rolls with herbs and a delightful dipping sauce instead, please note it in your booking. Your Hanoian cooking class will last about an hour. Sip on tropical homemade tea with flavors like ginger or litchi as you pick up cooking techniques from this delightful duo. You will end the traditional Hanoian meal you helped prepare with seasonal Vietnamese fresh fruit.
