Vietnamese cooking class in Saigon


Our Vietnamese chef cooking instructor


Saturday, February 24                                                                        Vietnam

Mike and I had a cooking class in Saigon this morning at the Hua Toc Restaurant's Saigon Cooking Class.

They were ready for our group of 10 with everything pre-prepared and every thing layed out for  us.  We made 3 dishes: Fresh spring rolls with pork, prawns and rice noodles, Green mango salad with char grilled chicken, and Lotus fried rice in lotus leaf.

Great time cooking – we ate each dish after we prepared it.  Each one was tastier than the last.  Mike was the star - he made the pretties lotus fried rice in a perfect lotus leaf.


All prepared and waiting for the novice cooks


Old Vietnamese saying:  The couple that cooks together grows old and fat together

Mike's lotus fried rice in lotus leaf package was the most beautiful of the class
