Learning how to make delicious vietnamese food

We had a wonderful time cooking and chatting with Hailey. We learned a lot about how vietnamese food is prepared and then got to taste how delicious our labor was in the end. We cooked Banh Xeo, Soup, Beef rolls, Chicken Salad and Egg Coffee. Everything turned out delicious thanks to Haileys easy to follow instructions!
