The cuisine of the south uses many herbs and spices
and has been influenced by Cambodia, Thailand and India, among others. Curries
using coconut milk are an example of this influence. The south also has a wide
selection of tropical fruits and vegetables that are not readily available in
the cooler north. During a morning course, you will have the opportunity to:
learn a selection of favorite dishes; recognize the basic ingredients both at
the Center; enjoy a trip to the colourful central food market; learn about the
blending of these many ingredients and spices to create the famous "nuoc
mam" (fish sauce) and multitude of different rices. Apart from the
preparation and cooking under our Chef's guidance, you will be introduced to
the traditional Vietnamese kitchen with cooking utensils still closely linked
