The backstory
Huynh and Vo grew up in the restaurant business with their family-owned restaurant in Vietnam.
“My parents owned their first noodle pho house in Saigon in the early 1980s, and they always taught and encouraged us to become business owners ourselves,” Huynh said. “We started cooking and learning the business at a very young age.”
After school, Huynh and Vo—who were 8 and 14 years old, respectively—routinely assisted their parents in the restaurant business. With their parents' support, they moved to the U.S. in the late 1980s with the intention of opening their own restaurant.
The two sisters studied business and accounting, and used their experience in their family restaurant business to open their own restaurant with their eldest sister, Derri Huynh, as the chef.

After 15 years of running the restaurant together, Vo opened a second restaurant location in Conroe in mid-October.
