Otao Kitchen

Otao Kitchen is Melbourne’s home of immersive cooking experiences. Founded by Chef Ha Nguyen, we celebrate the city’s multicultural heritage by sharing cuisines and stories from around the world. Our mission is to bring people together through food – to cook, connect and celebrate. We believe every dish tells a story, and every story builds community and understanding. We offer hands-on cooking masterclasses, private and corporate events, team-building activities and special collaborations with celebrated chefs. With over a dozen cuisines to explore, our experiences are designed to inspire confidence in the kitchen while creating lasting memories. We value authenticity, inclusivity, and excellence. Guests don’t just learn to cook - they discover culture, gain new skills and connect through the universal language of food.
