  5. Do you make a vegan Dau Sot Ca Chua? Dau Sot Ca Chua Chay? I had this years ago when a Vietnamese friend's mom had made it and I've dreamed of a comparable vegan version. Thanks in advance!

  6. Need some Vietnamese restaurants near Philadelphia and Jersey City area that serve vegetarian Vietnamese cuisine - any help appreciated. I knew a few vegetarian Vietnamese restaurants back in Sunnyvale, CA

    • Hi Naren! I don't know any restaurants around there, I'm from Canada myself and I've never been to Philadelphia or Jersey City. I recommend checking out Happy Cow because they have listings for cities all over the world!

  7. Hello Lisa, I visited a buddhist temple not to long a go, and they sold this delicious vegan meat, but I couldn't find out what it was. The lady who sold it/made it was vietnamese and called it Bo nuong chay. I think it was seitan, but it was cut in thin slices, marinated so it looked brown and it had sesame seeds on it. Do you know what that is? It was really delicious and I asked for the recipe, but she told me it was very difficult to make and also had trouble explaining it to me in english unfortunately :S.

    • Hi Dona! If you look up the Gentle Chef's cookbooks, he has some excellent recipes for seitan with lots of different recipes to mimic different textures. And then if I were you, I would reference the meat-based bo nuong recipes to get the marinade they use (to veganize of course). Unfortunately I've just gone GF for a few months to see if gluten is the root of my skin issues, so I'll be steering clear of seitan for the foreseeable future (I'm bummed. I love seitan). Sorry I can't be of more help at the moment!

  8. I just adopted a plant based diet and would love to try my hand at some vegan fried egg rolls...do you think you can get your grandmothers recipe?...I have been looking at vegan restaurants around so cal and they seem to have mushroom, taro, carrot. Thanks! My goal is to make a vermicelli dish with all of the fresh veggies and serve this cut up on top of the noodles :)

  11. Hi Lisa, Thank you for the great Vietnamese recipes. I am in love with Vietnam with such beautiful locations and people that I got to see from Vietnam during my postcard exchanges.. I am looking forward to travel there, but I was worried about being able to find Vegetarian food in Vietnam. Thanks to you, I do have some vegan dishes I can look for.
