Morning Glory Cooking Class

The Morning Glory cooking school has earned well-deserved praise over the years for its classes. Owner and founder Ms Trinh Diem Vy is a third generation chef and native of Hoi An and has created diverse cooking class programs to suit all levels.

Ms Vy's zeal for recreating street food favourites in the Morning Glory cooking school is driven by a personal desire to keep local recipes alive.

There are two levels of class. A Beginners/intermediate and an Advanced Class 

Beginners & Intermediate

Become more familiar with the art of Vietnamese cooking with a start to finish cooking course. This 4-hour tour combines a market tour, an overview of ingredients common in Vietnamese food, and a hands-on cooking class that ends with each participant making their own multi course meal.

It’s a great way to see all the nooks and crannies of a Vietnamese market and understand the secrets behind Vietnamese cooking. This is perfect for beginners or intermediate levels with two options offered.

The morning begins with a 1-hour tour of Hoi An’s food market where you will learn how to select the freshest ingredients. Return to Morning Glory, where a lovely air-conditioned room with individual cooking stations is used for the cooking class.

Here each dish is made step by step as you follow along. The staff are on hand to offer additional assistance for beginners or those who might need some extra help.

The class not only covers cooking techniques, but also herbal remedies, and tricks to using Vietnamese vegetable graters and knives. All efforts are rewarded with the lunch that you have made for yourself!

Advanced Cooking Class

This course is for experienced cooks or those who have a passion for all of the nuances in the art of Vietnamese cooking. Add to your skills through this 6-hour class that reviews menu design, challenges of finding all the fresh ingredients from the market, and culinary techniques.

This class includes personalized instruction by chef and experienced restaurant owner Ms Trinh Diem Vy. Take a culinary journey with Ms. Vy as she explains the history and philosophy behind the art of Vietnamese cooking. Topics will cover how to create a menu that is sensitive to seasonal availability of fresh ingredients and challenges of timing the preparation for up to 8 dishes at once.

There is a surcharge applicable for the Advanced Cooking Class - £33 per person.

Full Day Tour & Cruise

The exquisitely preserved merchant town of Hoi An was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999. Its colourful shop houses and temples reflect a diverse heritage, dating back to the 16th and 17th century, when it was a major port.

Today it is a thriving centre of traditional crafts and a shopper’s paradise, best explored on foot.

Wander through the cobbled streets, past low tile-roofed buildings, the bustling central Market and the small Harbour where colourfully painted boats are moored.

The walking tour will include visits to a Private House, where members of the same family have lived continuously for centuries in a traditional setting; to one of the Family Chapels built by prominent merchant or official families as centres for ancestor worship; and to a typical Chinese-Style Pagoda or Assembly Hall.

Finally, continue to the famous Japanese Covered Bridge, first constructed in 1593 by the Japanese community of Hoi An to link the town with the Chinese quarters across the stream.

In the afternoon, board a local boat and cruise down the Thu Bon River, enjoying the unspoiled countryside and stopping to visit a Pottery Village and a Woodcarving Village before returning to Hoi An harbour.
