If you can't take the heat, then get out of the kitchen!

After a quick snack at our favorite French bakery it was off to cooking class. After a twenty minute cab ride we arrived at The Vietnam Cookery Center. Our teachers name was Jasmine. Luckily, there were just four of us in the class Angi, me and a really nice couple, Monica and Cam, from Perth. We prepared three courses. I am proud to announce that I now know how to make spring rolls, and I have the certificate to prove it. The second course was sour fish soup and the third course was caramel fish. Our creations were delicious; however they gave us sour stomach. We both find it ironic that the only time we have cooked in the last week made us feel icky. The class was a wonderful experience that we will soon not forget. After class we headed back to our room for some reprieve from the heat. At 5pm we had an appointment to pick up our garments at the tailor. I now own a suit. It’s very classic and sharp. Tonight, we had a craving for bland western food. A couple we met from Missouri during our fitting at the tailor shop recommended Mogambo. The restaurant is owned by a loud, heavy set Vietnamese woman who once lived in Honolulu. The place was full of white people from all over the Northern Hemisphere. Angi and I both had chicken cordon blue and a 7up. We feel much better. Tomorrow is our last full day in HCMC, but we do not have any plans yet. I am sure some new and exciting adventure will find us!
