Vegetarian Korean Street Food - In Person
A hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 14 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here. Proof of full vaccination is required at the door. Masks are recommended.
Street food is one of the delights and joys of travel. Anyone who has been to South Korea knows that the land of BTS does not disappoint in this area. However, Korea isn’t the most vegetarian friendly country in the world. People who prefer a plant based diet may struggle to enjoy many dishes that seem vegetarian but, alas, are not.
After a summer in Korea, Marie is back in the Bay Area and excited to teach you how to make her favorite vegetarian & vegan street foods. You will learn a simple, protein rich pancake batter that will be your new favorite way to use up leftovers, how to create a variety of dumpling fillings as well as tips and tricks on how to turn all the recipes into healthier meals and snacks.
