Ngọc: On Finding and Adjusting to Your Tempo
By
Liam Langan
What is it about some people and their easy, breezy way of being? After leaving Tempo House where I spent a few hours talking to co-founder Ngọc, I asked myself this question.

Hậu: The Young Chef and the Gallery
By
Garrett MacLean
When I first met Hậu at his restaurant, The Monkey Gallery Dining, he was not what I expected. He is a man of few words, and possesses a calming, stoic presence. As we got to talking, I noticed the tattoos on his forearms, hands, and fingers. Tattoos, like pictures, are worth a thousand words. And such words can often tell a deeper story than the one that’s presented to you on the skin.

Chòi Chòi: The Best Things in Vietnam Are on the Street

Liam Langan
The best things in Vietnam are found on the street. Old men idling away the morning with a cup of coffee. Slabs of perfectly marinated pork chops, cooked over charcoal. You can find everything on the streets of Vietnam, and if you look hard enough, you’ll find a place like Chòi Chòi.
