So excited to announce our collaboration with Youth Assistance Coalition of San Diego, a wonderful non-profit supporting homeless youth aged 12-24 years old.
Chef Christina introduced the youth to Vietnamese spring rolls. A couple of youth volunteers helped Chef Christina prep all the ingredients that go into the rolls, while an eager crowd watched. When it was all ready to go Chef Christina did some sample rolls, then had each youth come up to the demo table and make their own, assisting in technique as needed. Some of the youth even got creative with the plating skills. For some youth, it was their first exposure to Vietnamese cuisine.
This was a successful first class, with many more to follow…
