Tung Nguyen, Katherine Manning, and Lyn Nguyen, MANGO & PEPPERCORNS

"The funny thing is, that's what we did as a family: some families take vacations, my family worked together." Lyn Nguyen talks with Zibby about her book, Mango and Peppercorns: A Memoir of Food, an Unlikely Family, and the American Dream, which she co-wrote with her mother Tung and her mother's business partner, Katherine Manning. Lyn shares stories about the mentalities her mother instilled in her, the relationship she has with Kathy ("she is, in many ways, my second mom"), and what life has been like at the family restaurant, Hy Vong, during the pandemic.
