Hoi An

Today, embark on a unique culinary journey as we explore a local Hoi An market, led by youths who are being trained in the culinary arts at Oodles of Noodles. This program empowers these young chefs to guide insider noodle tours, sharing their knowledge and skills with others.

We’ll meet two of the students and their trainer, who will guide us through the market, where we’ll discover over 26 types of noodles unique to the area. Learn about the fresh ingredients from local vendors and support small women-owned enterprises as we sample different noodles. After selecting our ingredients, we’ll return to the training kitchen where our youth guides will teach us how to prepare and cook these delicious dishes. We’ll enjoy our freshly made noodles for lunch and watch a video to learn more about the impactful work of the organization.
