When it comes to food and cooking, I would love to bring a twist to our Vietnamese cuisine. I really love our Vietnamese dishes, which I learnt mostly from my mother. But sometimes, I’d like to add some changes here and there from the cuisines of other areas. For me, there’s no right or wrong in cooking, it’s up to the cook to be creative in the kitchen. As long as you understand the nature of ingredients and spices, you can always make a tasty dish.
