Vina Ngon Hoi An Restaurant — Restaurant in Hội An

I don't know where to begin. We got in to Hoi An later in the afternoon, after lunch but before dinner and in the rain and, this place just happened to be a short walk from our house so we stopped in. The first thing you are confronted by is the beautiful garden of greens and flowers the house/restaurant is situated around so we were immediately happy. Our "server," was a lovely young girl with great English who sat us, took our order, and then let us know her mother was running to the market to get some things she needed for our order.

The food took time to prepare, and they have a great sign letting customers now everything is made to order not waiting to be reheated, and we just had the best time with our tea and coffee enjoying our surroundings and waiting for the food, which surprise, was delicious.

We ordered the pork fried rice, Hoi An shredded chicken rice, fried wontons (which were nothing like the picture in the best way possible,) and sauteed morning glory with garlic.

Absolutely amazing cooking class! Can’t revimmend highly enough! Thao was an excellent host. We met at the restaurant at 8:30 having already picked our 4 dishes to make off the extensive menu (you can pick anything you want!). We headed off on our bikes for a tour of the local markets. Thao answered every question we could possibly think of and with our ingredients in hand we headed back to the restaurant to get cooking. It was so much fun, we learnt so much and managed to produce delicious dishes! And no washing up.

I cannot overstate how great this class is- much better than the big group ones where everything is done for you. We would definitely do it again with different dishes next time we...
