    Great time: very nice welcome with tea, the place is charming with its terrace. Then the workshop begins. Duyen explains each step well, shows how to do it, then we do it in turn. You taste fresh soy milk and it's exciting to see the tofu take shape, pour into the mold, squeeze, pour, squeeze.... Then we cook the tofu, the table is set, it's delicious. We had a good three hours. Thank you Hoang for the welcome and the cats, thank you Duyen for your patience and kindness.

    Sisi taught me how to make tofu from scratch, and the class was both fascinating and insightful. She carefully explained the process step by step, introducing the ingredients, their role, and the next stages of preparation. Along the way, she also talked about flavors and how tofu can be used in different ways, which made the whole experience even richer. It was a very engaging workshop where you can truly learn a lot - not only about cooking but also about appreciating the details behind this simple yet versatile ingredient.

    The cooking class was really fun. We were even briefed by the chef and were allowed to use our homemade tofu in two different dishes at the end. I can highly recommend the cooking class for bad weather in Sapa or for anyone who wants to try tofu. But I warn you not to take time with you. The whole process of making tofu takes time.

    It was a great experience and fun. Learning to make Tofu was fascinating and quite technical. It was a relaxing day, when we started of with a complementary tea/coffee and then started Tofu Making. The Tofu was so fresh and amazing. We then had the opportunity of making a tomato sauce for the Tofu and having lunch. There was so much Tofu, that we took it home in a doggy bag for dinner. Delicious. Would highly recommend this course as it more fun than any other cooking course, I had completed.
