About vietcuisines.com
vietcuisines.com was started by Megan Nguyen in her junior year of high school for her Girl Scouts Gold Award project. The goal of this site is to document and share the recipes of Vietnam so that the younger generations can carry on the traditions. We invite food aficionados of all ages, near and far, to contribute their recipes and share their knowledge and experiences.
About Megan
Megan Nguyen is a graduate of CG Woodson High School (formerly WT Woodson High School) in Fairfax, Virginia. She currently attends the George Washington University. In her spare time she likes to take the WMATA Orange Line back home to visit her sister Annikha and dog Prince.
Megan learned to use chopsticks about the same time she learned to walk, which is to say that she’s always enjoyed delicious foods. When she was able to eat solid foods, her first dish was a traditional Vietnamese chao. Through the cooking of her mother and grandmother she was fortunate to experience traditional and authentic dishes at home.
