      Very very tasty!
      Excellent. And you get to eat what you cook. Our instructors were Kathy and Lili. Highly recommended. I can't wait to try our new Vietnamese cooking skills when we get back to the UK.

      Hoi An Cooking with Jolie
      We had an amazing morning with Hanna! We met at the Tan An Market where she showed us around the amazing fruits, vegetables, meats, seafoods, etc. We purchased a few items for our cooking class and then headed for Jolie Villa with a coffee stop along the way. Hanna guided us in making Papaya Salad, Vietnamese Rice Pancake, Vietnamese Noodles with beef (Pho Bo) and Eggplant in Claypot (Ca Tim Kho To). Everything was delicious and I highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Hoi An

      Best cooking class
      This was a really fun cooking class. We went to the farm first and met the lady who lived there. Then we went to the market to buy food for later, it was really interesting to see all the different fruits and vegetables. Then we went to a coffee shop and I tried salt coffee, it was delicious. Then we went to Jolie’s house and made so much food. Rosie was our guide/ teacher and she is so friendly and made us feel at home. I would definitely recommend this cooking class.

      Wonderful family cooking experience!
      We had a wonderful time cooking with Jolie and Hannah! Cooking with 4 kids in our group we were worried they wouldn’t be able to make it to the end but the team were amazing! We had a musical chairs dance break that turned into a big dance party while we waited for the dishes to cook. The kids had a wonderful time and learned a lot, and us adults actually got to enjoy the experience, cook the food and enjoy eating it! Everything was delicious! Thanks for a wonderful morning!

      An amazing cooking class in Hoi An
      It was so easy to schedule our cooking class the following day via what’s app! Rosie was such a wonderful teacher😊 she taught us all about local ingredients, had us play games and taught us new skills which we can’t wait to try again at home. The food was absolutely delicious and the class duration was perfect as we wanted a 3 hour class. Highly recommend the course! Make sure to show up hungry 😊

      Great cooling class, cool new cooling techniques. Highly recommend!
      Had a great cooking class with Rosie! Loved that the course not only focused on ingredients and the recipes, but especially on technique — different from other courses we’ve taken in the region. Great duration also, good dish variety. Would highly recommend !

      Great Vietnamese food class
      Went for a morning food market visit to buy the ingredients for the cooking class, had a quick stop in a local cafe, and went straight into the kitchen to cook 4 different and yummy Vietnamese recipes. Great experience overall, 100% recommended.

      Mandarin speaker enhanced excellent experience for 80 year old senior & daughter. :)
      Travelled with my 80 year old Mandarin speaking mother. I had requested for a Mandarin speaker if possible and had no expectations - we were most delighted with Hanna. Her conversational Mandarin was good enough for my mother to enjoy the morning of house farm visit, marketing, coffee and cooking and have a more than decent conversation, which was brilliant. Experience - excellent local experience to visit a farm with fresh vegetables produce. Then went to a wet market, introduced to some of the local fruits, had time for coffee (try the salted coffee with cream!) and returned to a home for the 4 dishes of cooking. Food - It was fun, we ate as we cooked and the dishes were most delicious. (Pho, pancake with rice rolls brinjal or aubergine in clay pot and papaya / mango salad). We love them all. Service - Hanna was sweet, most considerate in taking care of my elderly mum on a rainy day and her instructions were clear. We dropped by a supermarket and she helped us with a few purchases. If you are travelling with someone who speaks Mandarin , Hanna is the person to ask for. Her English is good of course. And she is most patient. Superb customer service. We had a most wonderful experience and would certainly recommend her and this company!

    A wonderful experience. We were taken to an organic farm in Hoi An’s outskirts where we had a short but interesting look at farm life.

    We then went to the market where we picked up the fresh ingredients for our class and after a cafe stop for traditional iced Vietnamese coffee, we headed to Jolies home for the class

    We made four dishes all fresh an delicious. the class was lots of fun and the hosts Rosie was a great teacher and very enthusiastic. We finished off with some tropical fruits we had bought int the morning.

    Overall an authentic experience not to be missed. Highly recommend it!

    We absolutely loved this tour. We started off in Hoi An seeing the traditional ways that farmers work today, we met a lovely lady who we were introduced to as “Grandmother” she was so happy to show us what she does and had fun laughing with and at us! We then headed to the market to pick up some produce, Rosie showed us how we can tell the best kind of food to pick up, what to look for and the custom for exchanging money fanned out and with both hands to show respect.

    We then went a grabbed some coffee/juice in a local coffee house and chatted for a while before making our way to Jolie House. We had a lot of fun learning the different dishes we’d be making, trying them all out and having fun with them. They were so good with our son who is 11 and he had lots of fun too. The whole family were happy and lively, they welcomed us in like we were old friends.

    The food was fantastic and they catered for allergies and food preferences. We had 6 people in our group in total and we all had fun getting to know each other.

    We then headed out to the lantern making, where we chose our material and decorated a traditional Vietnamese shaped lantern. (Perfect for travellers as it collapses down)

    Rosie our guide was amazing and made us all feel very comfortable and happy. This was our favourite day in Vietnam so far. I can’t thank Rosie and her family enough!

    Ps Mimi and Hannah you were so sweet and kind too, thank you for having fun singing with us!

    A fabulous day. We saw the community garden farms and tasted many herbs etc, then on to the market to buy some of the ingredients that we needed for our cooking class. Stopping next for coffee (really lovely cafe sau da) and then in to the house for the best cooking class. Four fantastic recipes, great teacher, fun and the food was the best we have had so far in Vietnam. Highly recommend

    What a day of fun we had with Hannah at the Jolie farming, market, lateen making, coffee cooking day for fun!!!

    We started the day with an incredible experience with Ut at her house in Hoi An where she showed us what her daily routine is from morning to evening… she was so sweet and just blew us away that at the young age of 81 she is so incredibly active.. her garden was to perfection and meticulous…

    Then off to the markets to buy some goods to help prepare our four courses… this was so interesting and Hannah was able to explain the different foods..

    At this stage it was a delightful coffee then off to get our hands working and cooking up a storm with the ladies and creating some of the most delicious meals I’ve had… they are so simple we will be sure to make them again at home over and over…

    After this, bellies full and happy as a bumble bee we buzzed off to make our very own lanterns… this was a test of patience, precision and grace when they made it look better then we did hahahaha

    Memories on overload and grateful for the day we spent learning and creating..

    This is a must do if you want to experience some culturally fun experiences…
