We were biking across the rice paddies and came to Long Phu restaurant to have a drink. We later found out we could do a cooking class the next evening there, it sounded fun so we called our neighbour´s friends from Toronto who were also traveling in Asia. They have two kids named Soren,and Annika, the parents names are Melana and John. They also thought it sounded fun so we booked a class for dinner. Long Phu’s van picked us up and brought us to the local market on the outskirts of Hoi An. The market had so many vendors and a lot of food. As you can see in pics 1,2,8, and 10, pic 10 is a little gross. We saw one vendor killing and peeling off the skin of an alive frog!! There was so much produce, Hang, the owner bought some morning glory leaf for her family. After the market we got back in the van. We drove to a pier and got into basket boats that were so fun, you can see the basket boats in photos 4 and 5, and video 1. One thing that is really popular in Southeast Asia is Karaoke, in video 1 a guy was dancing on his basket boats for tips, we gave him 10,000 VND which is about 60 cents CAD. On the boat they gave us homemade banana leaf rings, you can see my mom´s in photo 3. When we got to Long Phu Restaurant, we washed our hands and put on our aprons and picked stations and partners, my partner was my dad and we were station No. 4. The first thing we made was spring rolls, we chopped up carrot, onion, scallion, and we put it in a bowl. Then, we put in a blob of pork and mixed into a mash. We split the the mash into equal thirds and were given rice paper to roll up our spring rolls in. We rolled up our spring rolls and they were given to the chef to fry while we started to make Banh Xeo. Banh Xeo is a Vietnamese savoury pancake made from rice flour, they are yellow and get their colour from turmeric. We made a batter out of flour, water, salt, pepper, and scallion. Me and Dad fried our Banh Xeo on our gas burner, the pancake included pork, shrimp, sprouts, herbs, and lettuce and you rolled it all up in rice paper to eat. We finished our Banh Xeo and moved on to preparing the papaya salad. I shredded papaya and carrot for the salad. The papaya salad was quick to make so we quickly moved on to the last but not least dish, Chicken Curry. We were making two pots of curry, one spicy, one mild. Me and Soren are stirring up the curry in pic 7. Finally, we got to eat our spring rolls, Banh Xeo, papaya salad, Chicken Curry, and they kindly prepared us some mussels and gave us…… Coca Cola!! The food was so delicious I couldn’t believe that we made it. I really liked the spring rolls, papaya salad, Banh Xeo, and the Chicken Curry. After dinner we took advantage of the karaoke machine in the restaurant and sung many songs, you can see us doing karaoke in video 2, Long the owner was so into it, he was dancing the whole time. We did a bunch of good songs until the van arrived to take us to our hotels, we were staying at Bonsai Homestay which by the way was really nice. I would rate Bonsai a 8.5 out of 10.😀
