Haylie Duff's Real Girls Kitchen

Haylie’s looking for some Asian inspiration! When her publicist books her to do Asian cooking demos for PopSugar, Haylie Duff turns to The Walking Dead’s Alanna Masterson for ideas. They check out Pho Cafe, make homemade soba noodles with Sonoko Sakai, and pick up ingredients from Bangkok Market. Will they be able to finish a Green Papaya Salad for PopSugar and make a soba noodle bowl for the demo in less than two minutes?
