An Nguyen mentored under her mother in the kitchen of their family restaurant, New Saigon, for roughly 15 years.
Owner An Nguyen serves a tower of food at Dân Dã in the Aurora Cultural Arts District on Thursday, April 4, 2024.
An Nguyen works the kitchen alongside her mother Ha Pham at Dân Dã in the Aurora Cultural Arts District on Thursday, April 4, 2024. Nguyen closed Savory Vietnam, at 2200 W. Alameda Ave. less than a mile away from her family’s restaurant, in December after four years due to a retiring business partner and a spike in rent.
The popular DIY platter with an assortment of fried softshell crab, lemon pork skewers, grilled shrimp, shrimp pork egg rolls and fried shrimp paste is now the Dân Dã three-tiered Tower. “I basically thought, ‘How can I put as much stuff on the table as I can in an efficient, but still pretty way?’” she said.
