The cooking class was great. My family and I appreciate the knowledge the guide had. Aroma also had a good vibe and good energy. I would take another class when we are back in town.

Not just a cooking class! Tung was incredible and shared with us a lot of information about the culture and history. The homemade fish sauce we used made a huge difference to the experience. I still can't believe we made authentic Vietnamese food with scratch and shared it together. A heartwarming and unforgettable experience. Tung speaks fluent American English. I initially thought he was Vietnamese American. Ask away any questions you have. He's amazing and made my entire experience unforgettable and special. Thank you Tung. 🥰
