Thi and Nguyen Tran have created an amazing food brand right out of their own apartment kitchen. At one point, their illegal restaurant was the most frequented/rated Asian restaurant in Los Angeles according to Yelp. Since then, they've gone legit and created their own space. but for one night, we get them all to ourselves!
