KOTO (Know One Teach One)

It's the (not as high profile) Vietnamese version of Jamie Olivers '15'
restaurant.

Founded by a Vietnamese Aussie who, on going back to his homeland saw all
these street kids basically begging for their lives, and those of their
families. He started by just giving them money, then came up with the idea
of "If they had a job, they wouldn't have to be on the street."

KOTO started off as a small Cafe/sandwich shop, and is now a 120 odd seat
restaurant!!

When we 'do Vietnam' in the near future, we're going to bo doing some of
the cooking classes at KOTO.

Namely, the Street Food class, and the Food from the Coast class :-)


You can donate to them, or even sponsor a street kid for 24 months so that
he/she can become a chef.

It's a great idea, and one that Americans and Aussies should get behind.
