Viet the owner took us on tour of the local market, then taught us how to make a number of Vietnamese dishes. It was fantastic even though we just about got drowned by a thunder and rain storm on the boat on the way back from the market. The food here is lovely, even the things we cooked ourselves. Viet...

We were told that this Restraurant served up very decent vietnamese food and we were not disappointed. This restuarant was a great respite from the Hoi An heat as its situated right on the riverfront. Location is out of the main tourist area but I would go anywhere to get real Vietnamese flavours. We had crunchy prawns and mango salad... More

We had lunch and dinner at this great restaurant which is on the riverbank at Hoi-An, both meals were delightful. We also decided to do the cookery class that they offered and that was one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam. A tour of the market with the chef and owner Viet was really interesting as he showed... More

I keep coming back to this restaurant mainly because of the magnificent moneybags which are to die for. The location is excellent. Right on the river not far from Life Heritage. I did their cooking class last year and enjoyed it.

This is a fairly big restaurant right alongside the river just down stream from the central market. We wandered in for lunch on our last day in Hoi An and appreciated the cool breeze blowing over our table outside by the river. The only downside to sitting next to the river was that we were the focus of a lot... More
