A Special Invitation from Hue-Chan Karels, Owner of Open Kitchen

 

 

I invite you to join Open Kitchen for a very special evening to celebrate the
Vietnamese Lunar New Year  2011 ("Tet") -  The Year of the Cat (or "Rabbit" in the Chinese version).  

This event holds a unique place in my heart as it was 36 years ago that my youngest brother, Viet, was born, and it was that same year that my family and I left Vietnam for a new life in America.  Much has changed during these years, but one thing remains constant - the comfort and joy  of traditions and sharing a meal with family and friends.

This special menu consists of dishes that have been shared within my family both in Vietnam and now here in the States - these recipes have been handed down and evolved with time and new experiences. 

It is now my pleasure to share it with my Open Kitchen family and friends.
