Remembering Charles Phan

Charles Phan and Mimi Towle

Dungeness Crab with Cellophane Noodles, Shanking Beef, and his famous bánh xèo ("happy pancakes") were just a few of the dishes the legendary Charles Phan perfected much to our delight. How lucky were we to have him immigrate to the United States as a teenage boy from Vietnam.  And I was lucky last May to get a fan girl selfie with him at his restaurant in Napa. RIP Chef! Thank you for making our world a better place.
