Home-style Vietnamese Cooking Class

Shared meals are the heart of a Vietnamese home. It is a brilliant balance of aromatics, heat, sweetness, sourness, and fish-sauciness. With a strong French influence, the cuisine marries robust flavours with delicate fresh herbs and garnishes.

The most common spices—chilli, lime, ginger, garlic and shallots, a preference for sour tastes which are considered cooling. The heat in the food is added by the preference of the diner with fresh hot chillies as a garnish. Vietnamese kitchens are surprisingly simple when compared to Western kitchens

You host Leanne is not only a professional ice cream maker and a chef but she's travelled extensively through Vietnam and Asia and is a certified Frech Chef. Immersing herself in the food and culture during her travels, her classes are full of fun, hands-on and by the end of the class, you will go away with helpful hints and tips, some wonderful knowledge of techniques and best of all a full tummy!

Vietnamese culture involves a lot of family gatherings and most of it is centred around food.
