Maia was a fantastic host. We enjoyed every aspect of the experience. Maia took us to a nearby market where we purchased fresh ingredients and interacted with the ladies at the market. We then spent time at Maia's lovely home and met her Mom and nephew. Under Maia's instruction, we cooked and talked like old friends right from the beginning! It was wonderful to sit down at the table with her family and eat Vietnamese food as locals would. We learned a lot more than just cooking as we shared information about our cultures. We left as friends and continue to keep in touch on facebook! A fantastic experience.

This was an exceptionally wonderful experience. Hang is absolutely delightful. The trip through the market was fun and interesting. She gave us each a basket to carry and filled it up with lots of fresh ingredients, while stopping to explain if we had questions. When my daughter said she loved passion fruit, Hang added some to our basket, and took them home to make us a drink with them. She explained every step of each recipe that we prepared in her immaculate home kitchen, as well as sharing family anecdotes. Her daughter came in to help at the end. We sat down to a delicious meal! Highly recommend this!
