"Mứt Tết — a gorgeous colorful platter of colorful candied coconut ribbons; gooey cellophane-wrapped soursop candies; crunchy candied lotus seeds; and vegetables like ginger, lotus root, and potato candied in sugar syrup — is one of the main offerings for the ancestors. Roasted red watermelon seeds represent luck and joy. Nguyen recommends getting a full tray or an assortment of dried candies at the Vietnamese markets in South Philly or Bến Thành Supermarket in Northeast Philly." - Diana Lu
