Farmer & Cooking Class Package

My wife, 11 yo son & I had an amazing experience with a tour around the vegetable farm then onto the kitchen to learn how to make a few favorite Vietnamese meals and finally eating what we made (which was delicious. The twin sisters were fantastic and treated us like family. We had a ball and would highly recommend the experience

Fabulous food at Tra Que Basil Restaurant on our return visit. We joined the cooking class last year and loved it and returned this year for dinner and to see Van. The food is so fresh, tastes beautiful and the restaurant is lovely with a wonderful selection of traditional meals. We loved coming back and Van and her family have a wonderful Restaurant and cooking school for everyone to enjoy. Thanks so much for your wonderful hospitality 🤩🙏🥂

Did a cooking class here, and it was the most wonderful experience. They were so kind and the food was delicious. Van speaks very good English and communicates very good. Chef Thong guided the cooking very good. They are very nice. Definitely worth a stop 100% recommend.

Amazing cooking experience including delicious passion fruit juice on arrival, walk to the herb and vegetable garden (and helping plant some seedlings), preparing and cooking the most delicious spring rolls and other prawn dish. We then enjoyed all our food along with some delicious chef prepared turmeric chicken and morning glory topped off with banana pancakes!!! What an absolute treat with the best chef Thom and wonderful guide Bau (really hope I’ve spelt correctly). Thank you so much for sharing your time with us. We loved it 10/10

Great experience with my wife Tania. Firstly, seeing and getting involved in the family vegetable garden then having a cooking class learning how to cook spring rolls and pancakes. Also enjoyed a delicious chicken dish and ice cream.

Our group of 6 ( 19-60+ yo) went on a vegetable gardening tour and cooking class here. We saw and had a chance to use the traditional tools in the quaint vegetable gardens then went back to Basil Restaurant for our cooking class. One of our group is vegan and dishes were adjusted for her. We made crispy spring rolls, and the local specialty rice pancakes. All ingredients were explained and we are confident to be able to recreate at home! More dishes made by chef were offered after we ate our own creations. This tour is a must, go on an empty stomach!

The experience at Tra Que Basil Restaurant was fantastic! We loved learning about how the family have farmed there for generations, then it was so much fun having a cooking class with super fresh produce, and sitting down to eat a delicious meal that we had contributed to. Thank you to Vanh and your wonderful father, plus of course the chef!

So great to see how the local Vietnamese people work in their gardens! They are so passionate about their gardens! This was amazing fresh produce bought to our tables which we cooked! Chef Blue and Van were very friendly and loved sharing their local knowledge with us! Food and amazing - we loved making spring rolls!

This cooking class and farm tour is a must do while in Hoi An. My husband and I loved the hospitality and food so much, we returned the next night for dinner. Van and her family are so kind and helpful, we both learned a lot. My husband and I cannot wait to try making some of the recipes we learned when we get home. We made the fresh spring rolls and the crispy pancake spring rolls. When we travel back to Hoi An with some family, we will be taking them here!

We had a great day at the cooking class and farming at Tra Que Basil Restaurant as part of the Luxury Escape package. We got to explore the community farm areas, tried our hand at planting, cooking class and then at a fabulous meal for lunch. Loved the experience...thanks so much dor a great day

The cooking class was an amazing authentic Vietnamese experience. The staff were so lovely and made for such a nice time. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting hoi an as it’s worth it!! Food was amazing

We did the private garden tour and cooking class. It was one of our highlight experiences in Vietnam. Van, our hostess, Mr Blue, the chef, and Farmer Mr Hai were all incredibly hospitable. The gardening experience was so much fun and the food was so delicious. Would highly recommend this authentic experience that gives you a taste of local life.

The restaurant was clean, the staff was helpful and friendly. They well prepared ingredients for us to make the local signature dishes which were crispy roll and banh xeo. All was sooo tasty and delicious! The recipes was also given to us with explanation so that we can find ingredients to make at home. So exciting that most of the fresh vegetable and herbs were grown and collected from their own nearby farm - a generation to generation occupational of locals. Highly recommend!

Please come and you will find its different experiences about food, services, space .... Love this restaurant so much.

Breakfast …. Dinner …. Cooking class - all brilliant!! This place does the nicest fried eggs for breakfast, so simple but so good. We then booked onto a cooking class for that afternoon and it was really good. It was a private class and they took us out to their vegetable patch and we were shown their techniques and got to give it a go ourselves. We returned for a quick massage and foot soak which was lovely and we then learnt how to make spring rolls & marinated red snapper fish. All ingredients were really fresh! Highly recommend doing the private tour this way We also returned for dinner many times and were always greeted by the lovely family and had such nice meals for really affordable prices. All cooked fresh & local. A special thank you also as they went out of their way to purchase some rice paper for me as I couldn’t find any in the local shop. I can now take this home with me and practice my spring rolls!!

We had a lovely experience at Tra Que Restaurant. We visited the herb village and worked with a local farmer to prepare a plot of soil before planting some herbs. Afterwards we learned how to cook prawn and pork Vietnamese pancakes and we also made fresh spring rolls. We enjoyed eating our meals as well as another chosen meal cooked by the chef. The owner and guide Van is one of the loveliest people we’ve met in Vietnam, she is so friendly and informative. Would definitely recommend this activity!

Great cooking class, learned something about vitnamese farming and had really delicious food. In addition we got feet- and head-massage. Also staff were so friendly, it felt like home.

Van speaks English very well and we enjoyed the whole experience, especially working in the garden, and learning to prepare local specialties. A glimpse of village life in a contemporary tourist setting. Recommend if you have a few days in Hoi An, as it’s a pleasant cycle through the rice paddies to Tra Que Village.

Superb! The owner is so lovely and kind. Me and my boyfriend loved the whole experience, we kept coming back to visit and to chat with the owner, she was so nice. It was a really unique experience. We would recommend to anyone. Thank you! :)

My girlfriend and I had an incredible experience at Tra Que Basil cooking class / experience. The lady who owns the place, Van, is a great host and speaks fantastic English. She's knowledgeable and we learned so much on the day. The vegetable village is a sight to behold and it was a huge highlight during our Hoi An experience. Tra Que Basil is a must when visiting this incredible city.

It was a beautiful experience, cooking class, tour through the fields, foot massage. We were there as a family of 6 and we were welcomed very warmly. A very nice family. We can only recommend it.

An unforgettable private cooking class experience in this family restaurant where the whole family was there to take care of us. We have adored. THANKS!
