Meet Chef Thuy – Your Guide to Vietnamese Home Cooking
Chef Thuy will take you on a heartfelt journey back to her native Vietnam, sharing the vibrant ingredients, treasured family recipes, and time-honoured techniques that shaped her love for cooking.
Born in Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City), Thuy Hoang moved to the UK as a refugee at the age of nine. Since then, her deep-rooted passion for the food and culture of Vietnam has remained at the heart of everything she does. In 2023, she became a Quarter Finalist on BBC1’s MasterChef, where the judges praised her cooking as “absolutely delightful,” and John Torode declared, “What you’ve made I think is wonderful. It’s great. It’s fresh.”
Thuy is a passionate advocate for outstanding food and drink producers, using her social media platforms to celebrate award-winning ingredients and artisanal craftsmanship. She brings this same energy and expertise to her judging roles with the UK Quality Food Awards, the Great Taste Awards, and the Great British Food Awards.
Beyond the judging panel, Thuy regularly takes to the stage at food festivals across the UK and Ireland, giving lively demonstrations that shine a spotlight on Vietnamese cuisine. She’s also a food writer and recipe contributor, sharing fresh, Asian-inspired dishes with readers across food magazines.
In every class, Thuy brings warmth, expertise, and a genuine love of sharing food, making her workshops not just informative, but truly memorable.
