At Rose Kitchen, we believe a cooking experience can bring joy not only to travelers but also to the local community.
Your journey begins with a vibrant market walk, where you explore seasonal ingredients, learn about Vietnamese culinary culture, and connect with daily local life. Back at our cozy garden villa, you’ll be guided step-by-step to prepare signature Vietnamese dishes such as spring rolls, stir-fried vegetables, traditional noodles, and more — all in a friendly and warm atmosphere.
What makes this experience special is our commitment to creating real social impact. By choosing Rose Kitchen, you are directly supporting our ongoing Community projects: monthly charity meals for cancer patients, educational programs for disadvantaged children in remote regions, and sustainable employment for ethnic minority women who serve as our beloved butlers.

More than just a cooking class
934ilenea, October 2026
An absolutely wonderful experience! Our main chef spoke excellent English and shared such unique, insightful stories about Vietnam and its food culture, making the class feel like so much more than just a cooking lesson. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, almost like cooking in your own Vietnamese auntie’s kitchen. To round things off, learning about Vietnamese coffee and the traditional phin brewing method, followed by a delicious coconut coffee, was phenomenal. A genuinely memorable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to connect with Vietnamese food and culture!

collin was an amazing guide for the class today. he picked us up, brought us to the market to get the food while explaining the culture, and was our chef throughout the experience making sure we could do everything yummy. He had a great personality and walked us through everything! Would definitely go back again.
