Being a Việt Kiều sounds cool until you realize you can feel like a foreigner in your own country.

There’s a strange kind of homesickness that comes with being a Việt Kiều: missing a place that’s technically yours, while realizing you don’t completely belong to it anymore. You come back hoping to find something familiar, only to discover that both you and the place you remembered have changed.

Swipe through, and tell us: have you ever felt caught between two worlds?

What if you have a good life, but still feel like something is missing?

For Chef John Nguyen, that something was cooking. His journey took him from New York to Hong Kong and eventually Vietnam, where each place taught him to adapt—and see food differently.

With a Hanoi-born dad and a Saigon-born mom, he grew up in California with both Northern and Southern Vietnamese food around him. So when people question his food’s “authenticity,” he just simply answer: “It’s authentic - to me.”
Because his food isn’t just about where he comes from. It’s about everything that made him who he is.
Meet Chef John and discover how he found his way back to his roots—and to himself.
