Whats Involved

I always say Vietnamese food isn't just something we eat-it's something we feel. It's philosophy, family, medicine, memory, and creativity, all wrapped up in flavour. And behind it all is a beautiful idea we call Thuyết Ngũ Hành-the principle of the five elements. These five elements-wood, fire, earth, metal and water-aren't abstract concepts to us. They guide the way we think about the body, the seasons, and yes, even the food we put on the table. Each one is connected to a taste (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, spicy), a texture, a nutrient, and even one of our senses. So when I cook, I'm not just tossing ingredients into a pot—I'm always looking for that sweet spot between hot and cool, soft and crunchy, yin and yang. That's the real magic of Vietnamese food: it's harmony on a plate. As we cook together I'll teach you how this works (and believe me if i can cook so can you) using traditional Vietnamese techniques to make classic dishes

from all three regions of Vietnam - North, Central, and South.

​

Expect bold flavours, fresh herbs, and a great mix of textures.

Cooking may involve red meat, poultry, seafood, fish and gluten ingredients

​

It’s a hands-on, fun, and intimate class around a big kitchen table. We’ll chop, prep, cook, and then sit down to enjoy everything we’ve made.

​

We’ll even explore my herb garden to see what makes Vietnamese food so unique.

Come hungry - there’s a lot of food! And trust me, if I can cook, so can you.​
