"To experience the satisfying, flavorful meatless side of Vietnamese cuisine, visit Thien Tam Vegetarian Restaurant in El Monte, opened by Bonnie Quach in 2009 and focused on preparing many of the cuisine's greatest hits without any animal protein. The Hainan chicken is made with flavorful wheat gluten and accompanied by a sauce loaded with fresh ginger, and the bun rieu is a bright noodle soup featuring rice noodles, juicy tomatoes, and herbs for garnishing." - Eater Staff
