In this blog post, we will share our cooking experience, and we hope future sinh viên tiếng Việt will enjoy this project also. =)
Tối thứ sáu chúng em đi ntuc ở Ang Mo Kio mua đồ ăn nấu chá giò. Chợ rất đông người. However, that did not deter us vì chúng em rất chăm chỉ.

We even spent some time to plan and prepare the decorations and ingredients to get all set for the next day ở nhà thầy Minh .
We spent about 5 giờ cooking, từ 7 giờ tối đến 12 giờ đêm. It may be rất mệt nhưng vui.

Our samples. Tốt quá, phải không?
Upon arrival, we were initially very excited. However we realized that the house was very packed. Even though it was inconvenient, it was nice to see các ban và các cô there.
Vì nhà rất đông người, 5 of us had to roll our spring rolls on just one chair in the lift lobby =(.
Ingredient mixed well.
On that day, our thân thiện cô qùynh helped us with some preparation by giving us tips, and helping us put a bit of fish sauce into the spring rolls. This would enhance the taste of the spring roll.
However, we did not put enough fish sauce as we were afraid it would be too strong. =(
These are our pre-frying products.
Chá giò trông rất tốt, phải không? =p
The frying process was different from what we had practiced as there were many teams frying before that and we had to wait for more than một giờ.

Sadly, due to the lack of time, we could not shower as much care to the spring rolls as we had desired.
See how panicked we were!
Thế thì chán quá !
Thus, we fried the rolls at an unusual, very hot temperature to speed up the cooking process.
Unfortunately, this had negative ramifications on our final product. Our rolls did not look up to our ideal standard as what we had initially practiced the day before.
Chán quá..........
During the tasting process, we received some constructive feedback from Cô Bich on how to improve on it. However, we were quite pleased that we received positive feedback from everyone else, since taste and cooking are very subjective. Nevertheless, we were extremely vui with our spring rolls!

Immersing in the Vietnamese culture with my friends: Priceless!
