"A first solo project from James Beard–nominated pastry chef Diane Moua, this Northeast Minneapolis Asian bistro channels her Hmong upbringing with Southeast Asian–flavored morning pastries (taro, coconut, pandan) and savory dishes such as chicken noodle soup with fried Thai eggplant, mustard greens with pork, rice and a poached egg, and sweet, chewy sesame balls; the menu also highlights personal touches like bamboo sourced from her family’s Wisconsin farm." - ByKate Kassin
