Nguyen was born in a Thai refugee camp after his parents fled Vietnam. The family migrated to Sydney and opened a restaurant where Nguyen learnt the art of Vietnamese cooking.
He has opened restaurants in Sydney, Brisbane, Hong Kong and Vietnam and is the author of several cookbooks. He has hosted a number of television-cum-travel shows, including Luke Nguyen’s Vietnam and Luke Nguyen’s Street Food Asia.
The conference will include a three-night sample Pandaw Mekong River cruise from Vietnam to Phnom Penh in Cambodia.
‘The conference will be packed with great information for anyone with an interest in the burgeoning Asia river cruise market,’ Katz said.
