This Hanoi banh mi baking class starts with flour, not a ready-made roll. A local chef explains how French baking met Vietnamese ingredients, then you knead the dough, learn the baking basics and bake your own baguette. You build the sandwich yourself with pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, sauces and your choice of grilled pork, chicken or crispy tofu.
Next comes the coffee: you learn the traditional way to brew one of Hanoi's signature drinks, egg, salt or coconut coffee, and sit down to eat and drink what you made with your host and the group. The class is fully hands-on in a small kitchen and needs no experience. It suits food lovers, families and anyone who wants to take a Vietnamese recipe home.
Meet your host in a small local kitchen and hear how the class will run.
