Wahhh dis beez?

I know what you're thinking.  What is Viet-Chi anyway?

It's short for, you know, Vietnamese-Chinese.  As in relating to both cultures?  As in maybe you have a Vietnamese last name and your parents are from Vietnam but you're Chinese?  Anyway, if you are one, you know what I am talking about.  And man, we got some goooooood food. 

My mama is bombass when we start talking culinary (she is bombass in all other ways too of course).  Her cooking is a powerful combo that includes a Vietnamese kick, a Chinese punch, but above all the creativity and skill of a woman whose cooking is what's kept me nice and chubby all my life (I swear I work out, really...).  To those out there who don't think their mama is an awesome cook, sorry - but try these recipes out and life won't be so tragic.  

Please forgive my amateur photos.  If you feel they are really awful and can't stand them, sending a new digicam my way should help!
