Your wonderful host Tam learned to cook mostly on her own, but also picked up a few key cooking skills from her mother at a very young age. She later studied baking at Sofitel and owned a bakery, giving her professional experience in the kitchen. Tam feels truly relaxed in the kitchen and finds herself most happy when she is cooking. Tam currently runs her own online catering business and loves that she gets to cook every single day!
Possible dishes you might get to try are fresh or deep fried spring rolls, crab and asparagus soup, pumpkin soup, pho, lotus salad with shrimps and magic jelly with ginger syrup!
