Prep the rockets, stir the pho, shake the silly string and the pass the balut (or pass on it, that’s one dish that’s really not my bag). Tet Fest returns this weekend in New Orleans East. Some scenes from Lunar New Years past here around the grounds. It starts tonight 6-11 and continues Sat. 11-11 and Sun. 9-10 at Mary Queen of Vietnam Church. Link in my bio has story with all the details The food doesn’t come from vendors, but from ministries within the church, deploying a mix of festival food and home cooking and some dishes you normally won’t find at restaurants For those who already know and love Vietnamese cooking, Tet Fest is a wonderland of abundance. For those just beginning to explore the cuisine, it provides a deep, headfirst dive into its flavors.
