My husband and I have been goin to happy garden for 23 years. The restaurant was sold some years back and the now owners and employees treat us like family every time we go. Sending so much love to Fiona and family 💕
I been going to all these places my whole life South sac is the one place where you can get authentic Asian food. As a lao person, authentic is important.
I grew up in Sacramento. I remember when Vietnamese refuges came there in the 70's. They are a vibrant, humble and wonderful hardworking people. I have always loved their sense of community. This was a wonderful piece.
I thought the same until the video said that it wasn't until 2010 that it was officially labeled that, by that time a Vietnamese/Filipino store had opened in my town so I didn't really need to go down to Sac to get a lot of the stuff I went down there for. That and a 99 market opened in Folsom.
As a Vietnamese immigrant parent, I'd love to see our children working hard to be successful. If not, at least they are America's assets, not liability. :-)
@@z543 Well, talking about "wrong". When you said "Pho", everyone knows it's Vietnamese "beef" noodles soup, NOT "chicken" noodles soup! So? You're comparing of orange 🍊 and apple 🍎.
@@trungnguyen-hv4ji LOLLL you made yourself look like a fool. Pho does not have to be "only" beef. the chicken pho is called "phở gà". pho is just usually beef and more popular than chicken. and by looking at your display name, youre viet? so? isnt it basic knowledge to know your own ethnicity's food? 🤨🤔
Amazing food guys. Like I said many people dont eat pork due to health problems and religion. For examples India dont eat beef, pork but everybody loves chicken. Muslims, Jews and other health freaks stay away from pork products like bacon but everyday I see why pork is really BAD. Beef on other hand is good for you just depends how you prepare it.. overall I eat everything except pork due to Pigs Hygiene, Bad Bad for health like heart etc. I would not eat beef either but its hard.. ignoring pork is just good enough for me. I eat chicken, beef and sea food.
this is not about preserving culture. its about preserving segregation. your culture wont die if you mix with other people. this is like saying you must bee blk in order to rap.
something wrong with your brain? what exactly is a countries culture if it’s mixed with others if you compare a 1st world country to a 3rd world country most likely the 1st world doesn’t have a cultural identity because they mixed

This is great. Next time I’m in Sac I will pass by lil Saigon and eat a bowl of 🍲
Beautiful video
Su Ying Plaskett is the nicest person at Vihn Phat. Every time we shop there she is so approachable and friendly. Love her!
Very moving video. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.
I’m Vietnamese 45yrs old from South San Jose and have been eating at Vietnamese food my whole life
would be cool to see the county put more money into this area. make it a touristy area and what not for the asian community of sacramento
Love Vietnamese people and Vietnamese food! Did you know they have the least obese population in the world?
❤️ i love the restaurants there
I’ve never heard any local call this area of south sac little saigon. I’ve been calling it Stockton Blvd lol
Lol I called it little Saigon but when referring to the prostitutes in the area, I will call it Stockton Blvd 😂

We need to work hard to make our immigrant parents proud

Lovely
I hope to make more friends. Have one more friend outside

Vinh Phat I love so much. They give you dirty looks and the bathroom is nasty but they always have everything I need.

Little China 🇨🇳 😂 businesses, Little vietnamese shoppers 😢
Most of the Asian business at Stockton Blvd are Chinese own.
Born and rise Stockton Blvd area 47th the hills lemon hill 37th sky parkway mlk the 40’s elder creek
Let's talk about all the accidents hit and runs and robberies in that 3 block area
late 80's & 90's were wild over there. I'll never forget Good Guys.
Pretty soon Sacramento will only have a "little America"
Asian take over! Yaaayyy..!!!!😁😁😁🤣👍🏻
