Hands On

This class captures the fragrant, fresh, and vibrant essence of Vietnamese cooking. You’ll begin with a flavour-packed chicken banh mi while watching our chef’s demonstration. Then you’ll dive into making crispy pork belly banh xeo (Vietnamese pancake), delicate prawn summer rolls with nuoc cham dressing, and a warming bowl of pho bo, the country’s beloved beef noodle soup. Our chef will complete the menu with slow-braised lemongrass and tamarind beef cheeks and a lemongrass and kaffir lime crème brûlée. Menus may shift slightly with the seasons, but this gives you a taste of what to expect.

Two beverages are included; additional drinks are available for purchase.
