Vietnamese cuisine is more embedded in the city’s culinary DNA than ever before. Here are six restaurants worth seeking out
in New Orleans since the 1980s, when owner Tuyet Tacacs emigrated from Vietnam with her G.I. husband Karl. The restaurant was named after a chain of soup shops in Saigon that Tuyet’s father Vu Van Y ran in the 1960s and ‘70s and lost during the Vietnam War. In addition to faithfully recreating Vu’s phở recipe, Pho Tau Bay listed banh mi on its menus as “Vietnamese po’ boys,” to help familiarize New Orleanians with the concept.
“[In Vietnam,] banh mi was always just a simple item that you could pick up at a food cart,” explains Tuyet and Karl’s son, Karl Takacs Jr. “When we made them, a lot of people didn’t know what banh mi was, so we made a comparison. It’s like a po’ boy.” The restaurant also serves traditional dishes includingand cabbage salad, but makes a point to use local ingredients like Gulf shrimp. “I think it’s important to use the local products,” says Karl.
