Choy oy, choy oy! I just finished with a Vietnamese cooking class and so glad I did! I made two very delicious dishes and one I can tweak to make perfect.
I started with a banana leaf salad w/pork and shrimp....choy oy choy oy, the flavor combos were phenomenal. Then for dessert it was famous banana soup, again, it was so light and delicious. Finally barbaqued ternderloin steak in lotus leaf, a bit salty for my taste but again can be tweaked. I have the most amazing photos and the trip to the market beforehand was simply divine! I have a pic of an old woman with black teeth smiling happily as she eats fruit skin that our chef said" only old people eat, kinda like shoe leather." I dont know where anyone can find a better cooking class. Now off to lie on the beach and then, wait for it...wait for it...another SLEEPING BUS to Saigon. Good god my lord, let it be the last one.
