Vietnamese food has grown rapidly in popularity over recent years due in particular to the notable health benefits of the region's dishes. Less oily than Chinese, less spicy than Thai food, and not as heavy as Indian food the cuisine has roots in broths, raw food, and gluten and additive-free cooking — The distinct freshness and simplicity of Vietnamese cuisine begs you to explore deeper into the region's delightful dishes.

Awed by my mother’s cooking skills, I eventually made a career choice and surrendered to the call of the kitchen. I developed my recipes and cooking tricks from my mum as well as the local roadside food stalls I grew up with, and my first-hand experiences from travelling. There is nothing more nostalgic than food, and using my knowledge to recreate memories through the science of flavour is my passion. In 2009, my partner and I packed up our things and moved from everything I knew in Indonesia to England. And that gave me the idea, of sharing my love of food with other people and so I opened up my kitchen to welcome everyone to learn to cook, in a fun and relaxing environment; and so My Exotic Kitchen was born !!!!
