Miên
...is an innocent gaze casted upon Vietnamese cuisine, from roadside snacks to a mother's home-cooked meals; from highland rice grains to the river shrimp sizzling and crackling…all it takes is an open mouth to enjoy.
...is an innocent gaze casted upon Vietnamese cuisine, from roadside snacks to a mother's home-cooked meals; from highland rice grains to the river shrimp sizzling and crackling…all it takes is an open mouth to enjoy.
…is the sincerity I extend to you, as your visit fills my heart with giddy delight; with eager hands, I offer you a sip of tea and a bite of cake.
...is the desire to share simple joys, as we nibble a delicacy and have a sip of spirit, then exhale a content “aaah” each swallow.
...is the curiosity and delight each time I pick up a new trick; whether it is old or new, no one can take away this thrill of discovery.
...is my love for the present, a reverence for the past, and an excitement for tomorrow.
I hope Miên is a sheltering roof, embracing the children beneath it, for reality to flow endlessly, hardships feel feather-light, and our feet may persist on paths not strewn with flowers.
