Ep. 82 – Hung san, owner/chef of Hung’s Kitchen— Made (and Served ) in Japan

I’m back and starting the eighth season, we’re visiting a small Vietnamese joint celebrating its 5th anniversary this month. Meet Hung, a charismatic, soft spoken owner and chef of Hung’s Kitchen. Nestled between Izakayas and Pachinko parlors near Kamata Station, this welcoming restaurant attracts those craving authentic Banh Mi and Pho. Even though his food speaks volumes, Hung’s excellent service and constant effort to be part of the community invokes tangible warmth that brings locals and visitors together. If you’re in Tokyo and want some Vietnamese deliciousness, visit Hung’s Kitchen.
