Of the six dishes created by three chefs, the three dishes that receive the most votes will be served at the Japanese Cultural Festival held in Hanoi in next November. Within the event, the chefs will share the thinking and background behind the recipes they created.
In addition, during mid-November, the organisers will also give out free e-books with recipes for these six dishes along with instructions from chefs on how to cook them.
Through the project, the organising board hope that people of both countries will be able to taste these dishes, and that they will become a basic household dishes in both countries in the coming years.
The Japanese Cultural Festival in Hanoi is expected to open on November 12, with many unique cultural, culinary, music, and exchange activities.
