Southeast Asian culture has a strong sense of community through food as food is the ultimate expression of unity and bringing together culture, people, and history. This event explores Southeast Asian culture through the food that appeared in Raya and the Last Dragon, the recent Disney animated movie.
The event includes:
A cooking demonstration by Ploy who will show you how to make five-tasted soup made with fresh herbs that appeared in the movie. (click here for recipe)
