Itinerary

Join us for an authentic cooking experience where you’ll learn how to prepare Phở, Vietnam’s most beloved noodle soup. Guided by a local chef, this hands-on class takes you through every step of the process, from preparing a fragrant broth to balancing fresh herbs, spices, and toppings. Begin with an introduction to the essential ingredients that give Phở its signature aroma—star anise, cinnamon, ginger, and more. Learn how to simmer the broth for depth of flavor, cook rice noodles to the perfect texture, and prepare traditional garnishes like lime, chili, basil, and bean sprouts. Finally, enjoy your homemade bowl of steaming Phở, paired with local side dishes and a refreshing drink. Perfect for food lovers of all levels, this class offers not just a meal but a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culinary traditions.
