Cook, Connect & Feast: A Vietnamese Cooking Experience by Musefunnel
Forget awkward networking and forced introductions. This time, we’re starting in the kitchen! 👨🏻🍳🥗
Join us for a hands-on Vietnamese cooking class led by Laura, restaurant owner and chef at GK Tapas. Alongside a small group of around 30 people, you’ll prepare a selection of Vietnamese dishes, sit down to enjoy what you’ve made, and connect over a shared meal.
IMPORTANT: PURCHASE YOUR TICKET HERE on Eventbrite. No approval required. 💚
Cooking gives everyone something to do, talk about, and laugh over...making it an easy, natural way to meet new people. Whether you come on your own or bring someone along, you’ll leave with new skills, new connections, and, hopefully, a few new friends.
