Cao Has Lived in South London Since 1981 and Worked in the Restaurant Trade for Over C Three Decades hef and owner Myoi Cao has lived in south London since 1981 and worked in the restaurant trade for over C three decades. Her culinary roots, however, are found halfway across the world in the southern Mekong region of Vietnam. Myoi was born in a village on the banks of Cambodia’s Tonle Sap River to a Vietnamese fishing family and, following the outbreak of civil war, relocated to Saigon in Vietnam. There, she helped the family by working in local markets, making and selling pork steamed buns (“Bánh Bao”). After moving to the UK in 1979, Myoi trained in Chinese-owned restaurants and opened a Cantonese restaurant with her three brothers. Her passion however was always for the food of her childhood – the food of Vietnam. Myoi had long-memorised her mother’s recipes and over the years she expanded her repertoire with regular trips back to southern Vietnam and Cambodia. Southern Vietnam (“An Nam”) is known for its abundance of seafood, fresh vegetables and herbs, and for its bold flavours – lemongrass, fish sauce, tamarind and chilli. An Nam Restaurant was opened in November 2006 and in early 2007, Myoi surprised locals by winning Croydon’s inaugural Oriental Chef of the Year award. An Nam has since grown from strength to strength, popular among south Londoners and even far-off visitors from around the UK. The flavours you will try today are the culmination of Myoi’s journey and her passion for food from Vietnam. We hope you enjoy your meal. CANH | SOUP 1. Canh Tàu Hũ | Tofu and vegetable soup 2.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.
