Culinary Heritage and Community Transformation

In Cooking in Community, we follow producer Tricia Vuong into the kitchens and conversations of a new generation of Vietnamese cooks in New York City. Amid a city defined by hustle and reinvention, a grassroots supper club is reimagining what it means to cook, eat, and build community as Vietnamese Americans. Shaped by a rotating cast of collaborators, the club creates space for storytelling, connection, and dishes rarely seen on restaurant menus—showing how food can be both a tool for survival and a canvas for cultural renewal.
