Imagine living in one of the poorest provinces in Vietnam near the China border and being given an opportunity not only for vocational training but for a career that would enable you to work in some of the best restaurants in Europe or to return to your home province and share your skills.
The chef is a graduate of the training school, has worked with some of the best chefs in Belgium and returned to Hanoi to share his skills with the students.
Such is the place of the Hoa Sua school in Hanoi. There scholarships are granted (20 through Samaritan’s Purse) for training in Patisserie, Bakery, Asian and Western Cooking, Front of House and Housekeeping. There is also a separate program for the disabled and deaf of embroidery and tailoring.
Doing Laundry
The training school provides cakes and breads to restaurants in Hanoi as well as having their own bakery shop and restaurant where the skills of
the trainees are refined ‘on the job’. A separate craft shop in the same location sells the beautifully intricate embroidery and tailoring.
