Take home what you learn. - Absolutely great experience! The course was well organized and the chef spoke excellent English and was a wonderful teacher. My Kimchi received compliments from my Korean relatives. Since returning to the States I have made the Kimchi and tonight I plan to make Bulgogi. Many friends have asked me to teach them how to make Kimchi because of its amazing health benefits. The market tour was also very worthwhile! I plan to take another course during my next visit.

Awesome Experience! - So we went on a Saturday, and the local markets happened to be closed that particular day, but we didn't miss out on anything. My daughters and I were taught how to make bulgogi and kimchi. The lesson was peppered with a little history and even some personal anecdotes. Our chef was amazing and very friendly. After we finished cooking, we were then served our food and we had a wonderful lunch. The area of Seoul where the building is located is nice and quiet compared to downtown Seoul, or Gangnam where we stayed, so it was nice to see another side of Seoul. My daughters loved this experience.

Such a good class that we did it a whole week in a row! - Learn from scratch how to make all the dishes you have been seeing on Dramas and in restaurants. Super well thought, the teacher speaks perfect English and in the end you will learn from the ingredients and cook. Then eat with other classmates what you have prepared.

Fun Cooking Class - Jia is extremely amazing. She made all preparation steps and cooking sounds and looks so easy, when it is actually not. We thoroughly enjoyed the class. One of us, was even asking if there's any afternoon class available on the same day. Too bad, there's none..

Great immersion into Korean cooking - A perfectly organized cooking class that gives you a great understanding of the Korean cuisine and people. We made bulgogi and our own kimchi to take home. Learnt about basic ingredients and how the Korean cuisine differs from others in the region. We had a lovely group of fellow cookers. The class ended with a fantastic lunch / sampling of what we had cooked.

Great class, delicious food - My mom, dad, and I took a beginners class and learned how to cook stir fried chicken and japchae. Our teacher, Jia Choi, was wonderful. We learned about the dishes and ingredients as well as some of Korean culture and of course cooking techniques. At the end, all the students (5 in our class) sat down to eat the meal we each cooked for ourselves. If you are into Korean food or just curious, I recommend this class.

Cooking class - O’ngo Food Comunications - I really enjoyed Jia Choi class. She is an amazing chef and teacher. I got lost in Seoul when I was going to the cooking class and she waited for me. Even getting late she taught me the recipe from the beginning. The spicy chicken and korean salad, that I learned how to make it, were amazing. I really recommend this class at O’ngo Food Comunications.
