In the Name of the Spud – THE POTATO COUNCIL

You won’t believe it, it’s not a joke or trying to sound very clever in my post title, there really is a Potato Council in the UK. And this so called Potato Council is at the moment running a campaign to make the spud more popular and raise its profile.

 In the Name of the Spud   THE POTATO COUNCIL

In this scope, Uyen from Fernandez and Leluu,  Roast Potato, Never Enough Shoes (she blogged about it here) and myself were invited to an evening ‘in the name of the potato’ held at the cookery school of the Michelin starred celebrity chef Jean-Christophe Novelli.

VIETNAMESE COOKING CLASS @F&L

I have only one New Year’s resolution for 2011 which is to cook more. And what would be a better start for this ambitious project than to attend a couple of cooking classes.

As Vietnamese is one of my favourite cuisines and I have experienced many times at her supper club that Uyen cooks exquisitely, I immediately booked myself a place.
