An Afternoon of Meditation and Vietnamese Culinary Culture

$60

This two-part experience explores key fixtures of the Vietnamese community in Memphis.

Part 1

3:00-4:00pm – Chánh Tâm was one of the first Buddhist Temples in Memphis.  For the first stop, join us at the Buddhist Temple for a mindfulness meditation service (in English) and learn more about the temple and the history of the Vietnamese community in Memphis.

Part 2

4:30-7:00pm – the second activity, the group will participate in a Community Culinary Experience. Have you ever wanted to learn more about the Viet Hoa Market (40 N Cleveland St), but felt too shy or intimidated to ask? Well, now is your chance!

Join us for a tour of the market to learn more about the unique offerings. In addition to the tour, participants will assemble the main ingredients for a special culinary lesson that will take place in the teaching kitchen at Church Health at Crosstown Concourse. The group will be lead in a cooking demo featuring favorite Vietnamese dinner dishes, along with wine pairings for each. Once finished, the group will eat together and learn more about Vietnamese cuisine. Sit down, enjoy a glass of wine and great company!

This unique experience dives into the Vietnamese culture and cuisine. With limited seating, it will book up fast. Grab your tickets HERE!
