Meet your host
Jolie has been welcoming guests into her home since 2016, continuing a family tradition of sharing food and culture. Her family has been cooking with visitors for years, passing down recipes and techniques that have been in their family for generations. While they aren’t professionally trained chefs, they know the real secrets of Vietnamese home cooking. More than just a cooking class, Jolie’s kitchen is a place where people connect over food and daily life. She also uses her classes to support children in need—part of the proceeds go towards a fund that helps poor children in ethnic minority schools. With Jolie, you’re not just learning to cook; you’re becoming part of something bigger.
