Learn To Cook Vietnamese

Vietnamese food has grown rapidly in popularity over recent years due to its notable health benefits.

Less oily than Chinese, less spicy than Thai food, and not as heavy as Indian food, the cuisine has roots in broths, raw food, gluten-free and additive-free cooking. The distinct freshness and simplicity of Vietnamese cuisine makes you want to explore the region's delightful dishes deeper.

Covering well-known dishes from the region including Pho Bo, Vietnamese Summer Rolls and Beef Salad, you will learn to prepare and cook each dish from scratch at your own work station.

Alternatively, take your meal home with you to share with family and friends.
