In Vietnamese ... Little Saigon’s other homeless people. Their favorite day of the month is when they receive the payments and can stock up on jasmine rice, fish sauce and salt.

the process of tearing crisp lettuce leaves and rolling rice paper sheets connects people with the bounty that Vietnam has to offer.

A rich deep broth emerges then poured over rice noodles and meat ... I embrace and celebrate Vietnamese people and culture by serving the menu from my parents’ former restaurant.
