Ivy's Family Kitchen will showcase the flavours of southern Vietnam
After years of missing the cuisine from southern Vietnam, Ivy Tran has finally realized a dream and opened her own restaurant to share the flavours of her hometown with Prince George.
“We introduced it to everyone in the beginning on Facebook before we started the restaurant because we didn’t know after COVID-19 if anyone would be interested. But it became a hit,” explained Duong. Duong said when they first moved to Prince George in 2011, they noticed there were not many Vietnamese restaurants that specialize in cuisine from the southern region of the country in the city.
“For example, there are different types of soup that we will change up every day and different types of rice dishes, and there will be Vietnamese crapes that we will make,” said Duong, adding that they are also excited for the community to try the Pho and a special short rib with barbeque sauce that marinates for 24 hours.
It was not an easy road for Duong and Tran to open their restaurant, as they lost thousands of dollars in a shipping scam when they ordered equipment for their kitchen. Tran said because her English is not very good, cooking and sharing her food with others has made her feel more connected to the community.
