[woman] Okay, wash my hands.

She's a bitch, but she's my home. [laughs]
7
00:00:27,736 --> 00:00:29,821
So our hero this week is Anh Luu.
8
00:00:29,904 --> 00:00:31,031
{\an8}I'm 35 years old,
9
00:00:31,114 --> 00:00:33,950
{\an8}and I'm the executive chef
at the Bywater Brew Pub.
10
00:00:34,451 --> 00:00:38,788
I cook imaginative
Vietnamese Southern dishes.
11
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:41,166
It's not "foe." It's "pho."

"Sam, Anh's boyfriend of three years,
is nominating Anh
13
00:00:44,419 --> 00:00:46,880
because he wants her
to start expressing herself again,
14
00:00:46,963 --> 00:00:48,256
emotionally and creatively."
15
00:00:48,339 --> 00:00:50,967
-Want me to massage your feet?
-Yeah.
16
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:53,303
{\an8}I was attracted to Anh
right when I saw her.
17
00:00:53,386 --> 00:00:54,679
{\an8}And I thought she was beautiful,
18
00:00:54,763 --> 00:00:58,683
and I think that she's one
of the most fun people I've been around.
19
00:00:58,767 --> 00:01:00,101
[Anh] Sam is very special.
20
00:01:00,852 --> 00:01:05,398
He is my number-one supporter,
my number-one super fan.
21
00:01:05,482 --> 00:01:07,192
Well, your feet don't smell,
so that's good.
22
00:01:07,275 --> 00:01:08,777
[laughs] Thanks.
23
00:01:08,860 --> 00:01:11,738
We have not spent very much time together
very recently.

[sighs]
25
00:01:13,031 --> 00:01:14,783

[Antoni] "Anh doesn't remember
the last time she got a haircut."
27
00:01:17,660 --> 00:01:20,371
"So she wears her hair pulled back.
It keeps it out of the soup."
28
00:01:20,455 --> 00:01:21,873
It's good business practice.

"Anh's family was displaced after Katrina
and moved to Portland
31
00:01:26,586 --> 00:01:28,880
where Anh worked her way
up the culinary ladder."
32
00:01:28,963 --> 00:01:31,382
"The same week Anh became owner
of her first restaurant,
33
00:01:31,466 --> 00:01:35,678
her mom tragically died in a car accident
while on a road trip with Anh's dad."
34
00:01:35,762 --> 00:01:38,848
I think about the "what ifs" a lot
in my mom's death.
35
00:01:38,932 --> 00:01:41,392
Me and my mother's relationship
before she died
36
00:01:41,476 --> 00:01:43,144
was that I chose work a lot,
37
00:01:43,228 --> 00:01:45,939
and we didn't get to spend
as much time together,
38
00:01:46,022 --> 00:01:48,983
and I wish it could've gone on more.
39
00:01:50,193 --> 00:01:54,656
I really threw myself into work
after that.
40
00:01:54,739 --> 00:01:58,743
I had never really experienced
the stress levels that started happening.
41
00:01:58,827 --> 00:02:03,039
Gosh, just thinking
about the state I was in
42
00:02:03,123 --> 00:02:06,918
is making me emotional
because... it was pretty bad.
43
00:02:07,001 --> 00:02:11,631
"The mounting pressure of being a chef
and business owner just became too much."
44
00:02:11,714 --> 00:02:15,176
"She sold her restaurant,
and Anh moved back to New Orleans,
45
00:02:15,260 --> 00:02:17,220
hoping to heal and find herself again."
46
00:02:17,303 --> 00:02:18,513
Oh, Anh.
47
00:02:19,097 --> 00:02:21,808
Most of my friends
that know me from before
48
00:02:21,891 --> 00:02:26,563
would consider me, like, fun Anh,
and, like, the life of the party,
49
00:02:26,646 --> 00:02:28,398
and I am not like that anymore.
50
00:02:29,023 --> 00:02:30,859
People process grief differently.
51
00:02:30,942 --> 00:02:33,528
She's not on the best terms
with some of her family,
52
00:02:33,611 --> 00:02:35,446
and so that bothers her.
53
00:02:35,530 --> 00:02:39,117
We found out after my mom died
that she was the glue to our family,
54
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,247
and Vietnamese culture prides itself
on being very close with your family,
55
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:46,499
but I feel alone,
56
00:02:46,583 --> 00:02:50,420
and it's probably
because I have separated myself
57
00:02:50,503 --> 00:02:52,922
because I would rather
just push it out of my mind
58
00:02:53,006 --> 00:02:54,090
than deal with it.
59
00:02:54,591 --> 00:02:56,634
"Even though she's proud
of the food she makes,
60
00:02:56,718 --> 00:02:58,887
she's missing her mother's cooking."
61
00:02:59,470 --> 00:03:02,015
"Anh has finally committed
to hosting the Summer Supper,
62
00:03:02,098 --> 00:03:03,683
a private dinner event at the restaurant,
63
00:03:03,766 --> 00:03:05,894
to showcase
her mom's beloved Vietnamese cuisine."
64
00:03:06,769 --> 00:03:09,314
[Anh] I'm currently cooking
elevated bar food,
65
00:03:09,397 --> 00:03:11,524
but I wanna show people
that I can do more
66
00:03:11,608 --> 00:03:17,822
and throw a dinner
that is not expected at a brew pub.
67
00:03:17,906 --> 00:03:21,117
I've spent the last five years
hiding and being depressed,
68
00:03:21,201 --> 00:03:26,831
and I feel like I'm in this working
hamster wheel that I can't get off of.
69
00:03:27,415 --> 00:03:31,377
I hope that Anh has the opportunity
to take her time to reflect
70
00:03:31,461 --> 00:03:36,216
in a way that frees herself
of her own mental trappings
71
00:03:36,299 --> 00:03:40,011
because it sucks to see her struggle.
72
00:03:40,094 --> 00:03:46,643
So hopefully this dinner will jump-start
this next chapter of my career.

My food palette
is more boxed-macaroni cuisine

[Anh] Okay, so, this is a basil emulsion.
122
00:05:56,064 --> 00:05:57,857
It's kind of like
123
00:05:57,940 --> 00:06:00,693
all the herbs that you normally eat
with a Vietnamese meal
124
00:06:00,777 --> 00:06:02,362
mixed into one sauce for me.
125
00:06:02,445 --> 00:06:03,946
All the flavors that I work with
126
00:06:04,030 --> 00:06:07,784
are flavors that are based on the food
that my mom cooked for me growing up.
127
00:06:07,867 --> 00:06:10,453
She was my connection to my culture,
you know.
128
00:06:10,536 --> 00:06:13,039
Were you the first one in your family
born outside of Vietnam?
129
00:06:13,122 --> 00:06:17,418
Yes. So there was always a cultural
kind of gap between me and my family.
130
00:06:17,502 --> 00:06:20,755
So the only sense of, like,
your Vietnamese culture you had at home...
131
00:06:20,838 --> 00:06:21,839
Is this food.
132
00:06:21,923 --> 00:06:24,759
I have a special dinner coming up
called Summer Supper Club
133
00:06:24,842 --> 00:06:29,514
that is gonna be a little bit different
than what I normally cook here.
134
00:06:29,597 --> 00:06:33,518
I'm really trying to pay tribute
to my roots, my Vietnamese roots,
135
00:06:33,601 --> 00:06:38,773
and I want people to experience
a Vietnamese-style family dinner.
136
00:06:38,856 --> 00:06:40,942
Is this whole supper, like, for your mom?
137
00:06:41,025 --> 00:06:45,446
It is. I haven't really gotten
to do a dinner like this to honor her,
138
00:06:45,530 --> 00:06:48,533
but it is something
that I wanna try to have regularly.
139
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:52,412
You know, I love to cook,
but to connect with my guests more,
140
00:06:52,495 --> 00:06:55,123
I need to talk to them,
I need to be out there with them,
141
00:06:55,206 --> 00:06:58,334
and I've been kind of stuck
in the kitchen. I've been hiding.
142
00:06:58,418 --> 00:07:00,628
The whole menu,
is that something you've figured out?
143
00:07:00,711 --> 00:07:03,005
You're in process?
Have you started testing?
144
00:07:03,089 --> 00:07:05,216
-[Anh] So I've figured out most of it.
-Yeah.
145
00:07:05,299 --> 00:07:08,928
So, like, every Vietnamese family dinner
kind of has the same components.
146
00:07:09,011 --> 00:07:11,347
It's, like, always white rice, plain,
147
00:07:11,431 --> 00:07:14,308
and then there's, like, a soup
that's made of vegetables or meat,
148
00:07:14,392 --> 00:07:16,394
and then there's always some pickles.
149
00:07:16,477 --> 00:07:18,563
There'll be a plate
of fresh herbs and chilies.
150
00:07:18,646 --> 00:07:20,189
Must, the fresh herbs, yes.
151
00:07:20,273 --> 00:07:23,985
And then a vegetarian veggie dish,
that's kind of just veg.
152
00:07:24,068 --> 00:07:26,863
-What's your vegetarian dish?
-I don't have one yet.
153
00:07:26,946 --> 00:07:28,448
That's one that I'm stuck on.
154
00:07:28,531 --> 00:07:31,284
Growing up there was always,
like, a vegetable dish
155
00:07:31,367 --> 00:07:34,912
that was, like, stir-fried
or sautéed or anything like that,
156
00:07:34,996 --> 00:07:37,790
so there's a hole I need to fill.
157
00:07:37,874 --> 00:07:40,710
So I'd like to volunteer
to be your sous-chef this week.
158
00:07:40,793 --> 00:07:41,627
Yay!

00:07:41,711 --> 00:07:42,712

-Yes!

00:08:04,192 --> 00:08:06,235
-[Jonathan] We're home!
-[guys] We're home!
169
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:08,237
-[Jonathan] Yay!
-[Anh] This is my house.
170
00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:10,781
[Jonathan] It's so cute. Let's go.
Thanks, Bobbers.
171
00:08:10,865 --> 00:08:11,699
[Karamo] Let's go.
172
00:08:11,782 --> 00:08:14,577
[Anh] Welcome to my old
New Orleans shotgun house.
173
00:08:14,660 --> 00:08:17,872
-Shotgun. It's quite wide for a shotgun.
-[Anh] We have a lot of space.
174
00:08:17,955 --> 00:08:18,873
-Yeah.
-[Anh] I like it.
175
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:23,419
[Jonathan] Was this your sweet mom?
176
00:08:23,503 --> 00:08:27,798
We had shrines to our ancestors
all over our house,
177
00:08:27,882 --> 00:08:31,761
and she lit an incense for our ancestors
at every shrine, every day.
178
00:08:31,844 --> 00:08:33,721
-Oh my God, I love that.
-Twice a day.
179
00:08:33,804 --> 00:08:35,056
-A Buddhist thing.
-Amazing.
180
00:08:35,139 --> 00:08:37,558
I regret not spending as much time
as I could've with her
181
00:08:37,642 --> 00:08:39,060
the last few years of her life.
182
00:08:39,143 --> 00:08:41,187
She was very caring.
183
00:08:41,270 --> 00:08:43,731
She was always worried
about what everybody was eating.
184
00:08:43,814 --> 00:08:46,359
-Tried to feed everybody.
-Typical Asian mom.
185
00:08:46,442 --> 00:08:47,818
-Vietnamese mom.
-Yes.
186
00:08:47,902 --> 00:08:51,030
And I feel like that's where...
that's why I'm like that.
187
00:08:51,113 --> 00:08:54,116
-You certainly have taken up after that.
-Yes.
188
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,869
-Can we see the rest of the house?
-So this is our living room.
189
00:08:56,953 --> 00:08:59,121
-[Tan] Cute.
-[Bobby] I like the arch.
190
00:08:59,705 --> 00:09:02,959
It's kind of a mis-mashed space.
191
00:09:03,042 --> 00:09:05,711
You know, you've got sofas
shoved up next to each other
192
00:09:05,795 --> 00:09:09,006
and dining tables with stuff
stacked on top of the dining tables,
193
00:09:09,090 --> 00:09:11,551
and it's not allowing her to breathe.
194
00:09:12,885 --> 00:09:15,304
-Down this hallway is our kitchen.
-Good little space.
195
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:19,267
Lavender is often not an aggressive color,
but this is an aggressive lavender.
196
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:20,226
[Bobby] Yeah.
197
00:09:20,309 --> 00:09:23,980
Anh is so vibrant,
and there are so many colors,
198
00:09:24,063 --> 00:09:26,107
but the colors she chose...
199
00:09:28,693 --> 00:09:31,946
I'm not even a chef, but I need
counter space to be able to cook.
200
00:09:32,029 --> 00:09:33,698
That's why I bought this table.
201
00:09:33,781 --> 00:09:36,325
-[Tan] Do you struggle with the space?
-[Anh] So much.
202
00:09:36,409 --> 00:09:38,578
-[Bobby] So show us more.
-[Anh] Okay.
203
00:09:39,453 --> 00:09:41,372
Look in here.
204
00:09:41,455 --> 00:09:44,166
-[Anh] This is the bedroom.
-[Jonathan] Yes.
205
00:09:45,167 --> 00:09:49,964
The space that Anh has is... a space.
206
00:09:51,340 --> 00:09:55,136
[Anh] This is a very small closet, which
is the only closet we have in the house.
207
00:09:55,219 --> 00:09:56,804
That's your only closet?
208
00:09:56,887 --> 00:10:00,057
Yes, and that's all Sam's,
like, barely clothes.
209
00:10:00,141 --> 00:10:03,769
So Sam put up this, like, pull-up bar
that he doesn't ever use,
210
00:10:03,853 --> 00:10:05,146
so then he put a curtain over it.
211
00:10:05,229 --> 00:10:07,106
[Jonathan] You never know
when you'll need it.
212
00:10:07,189 --> 00:10:11,694
But this is our bonus room where...
It's our extra stuff and my closet room.
213
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:18,576
A blow-up bed, a bunch of junk,
with a rack for some clothes.
214
00:10:19,994 --> 00:10:21,203
This is not a closet.
215
00:10:21,871 --> 00:10:24,081
It's bananas. We've gotta solve this.
216
00:10:24,165 --> 00:10:25,499
We're gonna go explore more.
217
00:10:25,583 --> 00:10:27,001
[Anh] Make yourselves at home.
218
00:10:28,794 --> 00:10:30,880
What do we have here?
219
00:10:30,963 --> 00:10:32,340
Ooh! Ah!
220
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:33,924
[Antoni] Whoa!
221
00:10:34,008 --> 00:10:35,885
I love a brothel fridge.
222
00:10:35,968 --> 00:10:37,094
[Antoni] Obsessed.
223
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:41,474
'Cause it's sexual and necessary
at the same time.
224
00:10:41,557 --> 00:10:44,101
It's 'cause there's a red container
up top!
225
00:10:44,727 --> 00:10:47,521
No! I thought it was a... [laughs]
226
00:10:48,314 --> 00:10:50,274
-Wait, put it back! I like the red.
-That's...
227
00:10:50,358 --> 00:10:51,484
[laughs]
228
00:10:54,570 --> 00:10:55,696
[Tan] Hello.
229
00:10:55,780 --> 00:11:00,076
-[gasps] This is gonna be so chic.
-[Antoni] Tanny?
230
00:11:00,159 --> 00:11:03,621
Who designed it? Who purchased this?
231
00:11:03,704 --> 00:11:04,955
[Antoni laughs]
232
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:08,292
I've never been more attracted
to you physically, and that tail!
233
00:11:08,376 --> 00:11:11,170
-It's the detail I didn't know I needed.
-Bam!
234
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:15,341
[Jonathan] I am seeing...
235
00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:17,635
A lot of things I don't use.
236
00:11:17,718 --> 00:11:21,389
Like, I don't really know
how to put on makeup, I would say.
237
00:11:21,472 --> 00:11:23,849
I don't know the steps,
what I should be doing.
238
00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:26,977
-Well, do you wanna wear makeup?
-I mean, not on a daily basis.
239
00:11:27,061 --> 00:11:29,105
-But, like, I would like to know...
-Sometimes.
240
00:11:29,188 --> 00:11:30,481
Like, if I'm going out.
241
00:11:30,564 --> 00:11:33,693
It's fun to give yourself high-glam slut
when you need to.
242
00:11:33,776 --> 00:11:38,531
For me, beauty is not an avenue to
express yourself for outside validation.
243
00:11:38,614 --> 00:11:41,283
-[Anh] Right.
-It's actually an avenue for yourself.
244
00:11:41,367 --> 00:11:42,284
Yeah, I don't know.
245
00:11:42,368 --> 00:11:46,288
I... I mean, I've been having trouble
zoning in on, like, what I want,
246
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:49,625
'cause, well, "Whatever is fine."
That's my attitude about most things,
247
00:11:49,709 --> 00:11:52,378
and so I'm trying to be
more like, "This is what I like."
248
00:11:52,461 --> 00:11:55,214
[Jonathan] Yeah. Well, I like that.
I like tapping into that.
249
00:11:55,297 --> 00:11:57,425
We're gonna come up
with something gorgeous together.
250
00:11:57,508 --> 00:11:59,760
There is a little glamour-puss
that resides in all of us
251
00:11:59,844 --> 00:12:01,178
who wants to come out,
252
00:12:01,262 --> 00:12:04,223
and then we look at ourself
dead in the mirror, and we say,
253
00:12:04,306 --> 00:12:07,309
"I am a sexy slut!"
254
00:12:07,393 --> 00:12:09,145
I am a sexy slut!
255
00:12:09,228 --> 00:12:11,480
-Louder!
-I am a sexy slut!
256
00:12:11,564 --> 00:12:13,733
So that the people three blocks away
can hear!
257
00:12:13,816 --> 00:12:16,444
I am a sexy slut!
258
00:12:16,527 --> 00:12:17,695
-Yes!
-[Anh laughs]
259
00:12:17,778 --> 00:12:19,447
Mmm, that was good!
260
00:12:19,530 --> 00:12:22,074
[Tan] You're gonna end that with
"and Tanny forever," right?
261
00:12:22,158 --> 00:12:23,159
Uh-huh.
262
00:12:26,871 --> 00:12:28,664
Antoni, will you help me do a push-up?
263
00:12:28,748 --> 00:12:31,083
[laughs] It's called a pull-up.
264
00:12:31,167 --> 00:12:33,711
I've got a feeling
you don't know how to use it, so...
265
00:12:33,794 --> 00:12:36,130
-[Jonathan] You're gonna break it.
-[Karamo] I can go for it.
266
00:12:36,213 --> 00:12:38,507
Oh my God, he's gonna fall.
Oh my God, he's gonna fall.
267
00:12:38,591 --> 00:12:39,759
-[Karamo] Ah!
-[Tan] Ah!
268
00:12:39,842 --> 00:12:40,843
[Karamo screams]
269
00:12:45,973 --> 00:12:48,768
[Jonathan] Called it. Called it.
270
00:12:51,854 --> 00:12:53,606
-Bobby'll fix it.
-Oh my God.
271
00:12:53,689 --> 00:12:55,691
[Karamo] Bobby! Bobby!
272
00:12:55,775 --> 00:12:58,819
[Antoni] Bobby,
we need you to fix something!
273
00:12:58,903 --> 00:12:59,945
[Jonathan] Bobby!
274
00:13:00,029 --> 00:13:02,782
-What? Let's look around a little bit.
-Okay. [laughs]
275
00:13:02,865 --> 00:13:05,868
-So, like, I see a dining table here.
-Yeah.
276
00:13:05,951 --> 00:13:09,497
But I don't really see it in the position
that it's used very often, no?
277
00:13:09,580 --> 00:13:12,208
[Anh] No. I got this table
because I want to be able to have
278
00:13:12,291 --> 00:13:14,376
a dinner party at my house
with a bunch of friends.
279
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:16,045
[Bobby] This is, like, cute test kitchen.
280
00:13:16,128 --> 00:13:19,048
It's exactly what I want my space to be.
281
00:13:19,131 --> 00:13:22,468
I haven't been able to make that happen
because of how busy I am,
282
00:13:22,551 --> 00:13:25,346
and how little time I spend at home,
you know?
283
00:13:27,473 --> 00:13:29,892
[Tan] How do you feel about clothes?
Do you care?
284
00:13:29,975 --> 00:13:34,063
I have cared. I like these blouses.
I've never even, like, worn them.
285
00:13:34,146 --> 00:13:35,439
-They are cute.
-[Anh] Cute.
286
00:13:35,523 --> 00:13:39,193
But, like, I go shopping sometimes
and fantasize about wearing these things,
287
00:13:39,276 --> 00:13:41,362
but I don't know
where I'm gonna wear them to.
288
00:13:41,445 --> 00:13:44,156
So I'm like, "Let me buy it,"
and then I don't wear it,
289
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:45,741
and then they still have tags on.
290
00:13:45,825 --> 00:13:49,286
-You could throw that on with a jean.
-I know, but then it's like...
291
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:51,372
-It's a replacement T-shirt.
-[Anh] I know.
292
00:13:51,455 --> 00:13:53,999
My looks just haven't mattered
in a long time.
293
00:13:54,083 --> 00:13:57,211
I don't know how to style
around a chef coat.
294
00:13:57,294 --> 00:13:58,879
-[Tan] Okay.
-You know what I mean? Like...
295
00:13:58,963 --> 00:14:03,175
Yeah. It sounds like you're pining
for the days gone by.
296
00:14:03,259 --> 00:14:04,593
[Anh] I do, a lot.
297
00:14:04,677 --> 00:14:08,055
The past five years have been
really just a roller coaster,
298
00:14:08,138 --> 00:14:10,724
and, like, I'm having trouble
just living in the present
299
00:14:10,808 --> 00:14:12,893
and then, like, forming the new me.
300
00:14:12,977 --> 00:14:16,856
And I don't want to limit myself anymore.
301
00:14:16,939 --> 00:14:19,817
You're a zesty person.
Like, you do a wonderful job.
302
00:14:19,900 --> 00:14:23,028
I would love for that to be reflected
in the way you carry yourself...
303
00:14:23,112 --> 00:14:24,697
-[Anh] Yeah.
-...going forward.
304
00:14:24,780 --> 00:14:26,156
I would like that too.
305
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,700
-[moans]
-[Karamo] Yeah.
306
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:29,910
Get that workout, Daddy.
307
00:14:30,786 --> 00:14:32,746
This is so fun!
308
00:14:36,834 --> 00:14:38,377
-[Antoni] Found photos.
-[Tan] Oh, yay.
309
00:14:38,460 --> 00:14:40,170
[Antoni] Oh my God. Is that Chef Anh?
310
00:14:42,047 --> 00:14:42,965
[Tan] Yeah, it is.
311
00:14:43,048 --> 00:14:44,216
[Antoni] Whoa!
312
00:14:45,217 --> 00:14:46,468
Where's that person?
313
00:14:47,052 --> 00:14:48,095
[Tan] We'll find her.
314
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:52,808
What has life been like
since your mom passed?
315
00:14:53,851 --> 00:14:55,060
[Anh] Oh gosh.
316
00:14:55,144 --> 00:14:58,314
There was a lot of crying alone in my car.
317
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:02,818
I felt like I was sad for just years.
318
00:15:02,902 --> 00:15:04,737
I just threw myself into work.
319
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:11,327
Um, I carry a lot of mixed feelings about
the way it went down with my father.
320
00:15:11,410 --> 00:15:12,578
He was driving the car
321
00:15:12,661 --> 00:15:15,289
when the accident happened
that killed my mother.
322
00:15:15,372 --> 00:15:17,207
I didn't know that. I'm so sorry.
323
00:15:17,291 --> 00:15:20,336
I just felt like he changed
as a person afterwards.
324
00:15:20,419 --> 00:15:23,714
And he lives in California,
so he's not around here.
325
00:15:24,298 --> 00:15:26,383
And he's remarried now,
326
00:15:26,467 --> 00:15:29,970
and I'm not close with him
as I used to be anymore.
327
00:15:30,554 --> 00:15:35,184
Have you ever had a conversation with him
about how you feel?
328
00:15:35,267 --> 00:15:37,436
I pick and choose my battles
with everyone,
329
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:39,104
but a lot of times with him.
330
00:15:40,022 --> 00:15:43,067
I have said what I wanna say to him,
331
00:15:43,150 --> 00:15:47,905
but I don't think that it was received
332
00:15:49,323 --> 00:15:51,784
in the way that I wanted it to be.
333
00:15:52,368 --> 00:15:56,705
And you needed and deserve certain things,
and you didn't get them.
334
00:15:58,082 --> 00:16:00,125
Yeah. All of that is true.
335
00:16:01,710 --> 00:16:02,544
Yeah.
336
00:16:05,422 --> 00:16:08,550
-[Karamo] Who is this fella walking in?
-[Anh] It's Sam!
337
00:16:08,634 --> 00:16:11,804
So this is Sam?
I hope it's not a random person!
338
00:16:11,887 --> 00:16:13,097
This is my partner, Sam!
339
00:16:13,180 --> 00:16:15,516
-How you living? Give me some love.
-[Karamo] Sam.
340
00:16:15,599 --> 00:16:17,226
Sam, it's good to see you, Sam.
341
00:16:17,309 --> 00:16:21,230
Tell us why you nominated
this beautiful young lady.
342
00:16:21,313 --> 00:16:25,609
She needs some time for herself
because growth, it starts from scratch,
343
00:16:25,693 --> 00:16:29,363
and she doesn't give herself time often,
I feel like, for that scratch moment.
344
00:16:29,446 --> 00:16:30,906
-[Tan] Yeah.
-Are you ready to start?
345
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:32,866
I'm ready to start! [laughs]
346
00:16:32,950 --> 00:16:34,118

349
00:16:39,289 --> 00:16:43,168
{\an8}The loss of Anh's mother
weighs really heavily on her,
350
00:16:43,252 --> 00:16:44,753
and she works too much,
351
00:16:44,837 --> 00:16:47,715
and you can tell that from the state
that her home was in.
352
00:16:47,798 --> 00:16:49,633
She needs serenity
353
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:52,845
and a space to be able to relax.
354
00:16:52,928 --> 00:16:55,222
I wanna make her home her safe space.
355
00:16:55,931 --> 00:16:57,808
Anh is gorgeous,
356
00:16:57,891 --> 00:17:01,103
but I just know that this grief
is heavy on Anh's heart,
357
00:17:01,186 --> 00:17:04,523
and she just forgot how gorgeous she is.
358
00:17:04,606 --> 00:17:07,860
My job is to help her feel secure
in her essence.
359
00:17:08,777 --> 00:17:13,991
Chef Anh has developed an incredible menu
that pleases all of the local clientele,
360
00:17:14,074 --> 00:17:16,035
but at the end of the week
with Summer Supper Club,
361
00:17:16,118 --> 00:17:19,371
this is her first opportunity
to show the world who she is,
362
00:17:19,455 --> 00:17:21,248
the dishes that shaped her.
363
00:17:21,331 --> 00:17:23,292
What a lovely way to honor her mother.
364
00:17:23,375 --> 00:17:26,295
[Tan] She has
a very simple look at her work,
365
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:28,589
which is a pair of pants and a T-shirt,
366
00:17:28,672 --> 00:17:31,216
but she's the executive chef.
367
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:34,303
She's a powerful woman.
What does she wanna convey to the world?
368
00:17:35,054 --> 00:17:37,222
{\an8}[Karamo] Sometimes when we throw ourselves
into our jobs,
369
00:17:37,306 --> 00:17:40,434
{\an8}it's not just because we love what
we're doing. It's because we're hiding.
370
00:17:40,517 --> 00:17:43,187
{\an8}Anh is still grieving not only her mother
371
00:17:43,270 --> 00:17:47,107
{\an8}but also not getting the help
that she needed from her father.
372
00:17:47,191 --> 00:17:50,194
{\an8}It's time for her to confront that
so that she can start healing.

What did your parents say
about you wanting to cook for a living?
377
00:18:06,168 --> 00:18:09,088
Well, at first they were like, "Why?"
378
00:18:09,171 --> 00:18:10,339
Because Asian, yes.
379
00:18:10,422 --> 00:18:13,634
Because Asian, and they always told people
that I was gonna be a lawyer,
380
00:18:13,717 --> 00:18:15,552
'cause we already had a doctor
in the family.
381
00:18:15,636 --> 00:18:17,805
-Same! Same.
-And I'm like, "No."
382
00:18:19,056 --> 00:18:21,391
-Yeah.
-I understand this all too well.
383
00:18:22,142 --> 00:18:25,854
Was there tension between you and your mom
as a kid?
384
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:31,777
Yes, because she was not, like, somebody
that I felt like I could just talk to
385
00:18:31,860 --> 00:18:34,321
about any problems I might have.
386
00:18:34,404 --> 00:18:36,365
You know,
I was always afraid of her judging me
387
00:18:36,448 --> 00:18:38,325
because of the cultural difference.
388
00:18:38,408 --> 00:18:40,869
Because she was so Vietnamese,
389
00:18:40,953 --> 00:18:43,163
and you clearly, at that point,
were so American.
390
00:18:43,247 --> 00:18:48,418
Yes. I was sent to an all-private school,
which was mostly white kids.
391
00:18:48,502 --> 00:18:51,130
So it was, like, painfully obvious to me
when I was growing up
392
00:18:51,213 --> 00:18:54,299
that I was different,
but I feel like I grew out of that.
393
00:18:54,383 --> 00:18:57,261
And after I was able
to kind of establish myself
394
00:18:57,344 --> 00:18:59,888
as a chef who cooks Vietnamese food,
395
00:18:59,972 --> 00:19:02,599
I, like, felt official to myself.
396
00:19:02,683 --> 00:19:04,268
-You know what I mean?
-[Tan] Yeah. Yeah.
397
00:19:04,351 --> 00:19:06,019
-I don't feel shame.
-[Tan] Feel validated.
398
00:19:06,103 --> 00:19:08,772
-I feel very proud now.
-Yeah. Yeah.
399
00:19:08,856 --> 00:19:11,733
I was buying the restaurant
right when my mom passed away,
400
00:19:11,817 --> 00:19:13,569
so she knew that that was happening.
401
00:19:13,652 --> 00:19:17,573
So I feel happy
that she got to kind of take a glimpse
402
00:19:17,656 --> 00:19:20,492
into the path I was taking,
403
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:23,829
but I'm sad that, like,
she couldn't go on that journey with me.
404
00:19:24,580 --> 00:19:26,665
-Can we try on clothes and lighten up?
-[Anh] Please!
405
00:19:26,748 --> 00:19:30,294
Okay, give me a hug.
I know that was a lot. I'm sorry.
406
00:19:30,377 --> 00:19:33,547
-It's all right.
-But we really are very weirdly similar.
407
00:19:34,798 --> 00:19:37,843
We chatted about the kind of clothes
you typically wear
408
00:19:37,926 --> 00:19:40,804
and that you don't really
get "dressed up" much anymore.
409
00:19:40,888 --> 00:19:46,185
I like getting dressed up, but my formal,
in my mind is, like, my fancy chef coat.
410
00:19:46,268 --> 00:19:48,478
I want to look more polished,
411
00:19:48,562 --> 00:19:52,357
but I don't know how to flatter myself
at this point in my life.
412
00:19:52,441 --> 00:19:55,194
I am the heaviest I've ever been
right now.
413
00:19:55,277 --> 00:19:57,196
-Okay.
-And I love button-up shirts.
414
00:19:57,279 --> 00:20:00,115
But I can't ever wear them
because if I go a size up
415
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:03,452
because the button isn't buttoning,
it makes me look bigger,
416
00:20:03,535 --> 00:20:06,205
and then it fits only right here
but not right here.
417
00:20:06,288 --> 00:20:07,748
Let me tell you, they're gorgeous.
418
00:20:07,831 --> 00:20:10,417
I wanna show you
how you can really balance those out
419
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:13,378
so you can feel a bit more confident
when it comes to your body.
420
00:20:13,462 --> 00:20:14,338
Yeah.
421
00:20:14,421 --> 00:20:17,633
I don't expect Anh to dress in a ball gown
to go to work,
422
00:20:17,716 --> 00:20:20,177
but she still needs to be taken seriously.
423
00:20:20,260 --> 00:20:23,430
What is she gonna wear
to her Summer Supper Clubs?
424
00:20:23,513 --> 00:20:27,768
I want her to feel very chic
and also professional,
425
00:20:27,851 --> 00:20:29,603
and that's what we're gonna find here.
426
00:20:30,103 --> 00:20:31,563
-Can I see?
-[Anh] Mm-hmm.
427
00:20:31,647 --> 00:20:34,316
Ooh! Okay. Won't you join me please?
428
00:20:34,399 --> 00:20:35,609
[gasps]
429
00:20:35,692 --> 00:20:37,444
-Love.
-Yeah!
430
00:20:37,527 --> 00:20:40,489
I wanna just pull this out
just ever so slightly.
431
00:20:40,572 --> 00:20:42,741
I love the shirt. The shirt's super
comfortable.
432
00:20:42,824 --> 00:20:45,869
-[Tan] With the jean, it's still dressy.
-[Anh] Yeah, totally.
433
00:20:45,953 --> 00:20:49,373
I don't ever tuck in my shirt either,
so that's a new thing.
434
00:20:49,456 --> 00:20:53,710
The way that we, as shorter people,
are going to feel our very best
435
00:20:53,794 --> 00:20:56,380
is by making sure
we're balancing out our proportions,
436
00:20:56,463 --> 00:21:00,550
and so doing the little tuck-in
is really gonna make all the difference.
437
00:21:00,634 --> 00:21:04,471
And then, making sure that your pants
aren't too skinny at the bottom
438
00:21:04,554 --> 00:21:07,182
to really make the most of our height.
439
00:21:07,266 --> 00:21:08,934
-You look gorge.
-Thank you.
440
00:21:09,017 --> 00:21:11,061
I feel different in these clothes,
for sure.
441
00:21:11,144 --> 00:21:13,146
-Yeah.
-They make me feel more confident.
442
00:21:13,230 --> 00:21:16,024
I would like for you, going forward,
to not just see it as,
443
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:17,734
"I've got clothes on my body."
444
00:21:17,818 --> 00:21:20,237
-It's gonna make a difference.
-That's where I wanna be.
445
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,154
-Good.
-Yes.
446
00:21:21,238 --> 00:21:23,031
-Shall we try on a dress?
-I'm down. Yes.
447
00:21:23,115 --> 00:21:24,283
Good, let's try it on
448
00:21:25,492 --> 00:21:26,326
[Anh] I'm ready!
449
00:21:26,410 --> 00:21:28,120
-[Tan] Can I take a look?
-Yes.
450
00:21:28,203 --> 00:21:29,454
[Tan] Let's see it.
451
00:21:30,497 --> 00:21:32,207
-Oh! Oh!
-[chuckles]
452
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:34,334
Okay, you tell me what you think.
453
00:21:34,835 --> 00:21:38,964
-Um, the dress isn't my favorite dress.
-Oh.
454
00:21:39,047 --> 00:21:40,590
And this is what happens to me a lot
455
00:21:40,674 --> 00:21:43,844
with, like, dresses
that have pre-boob parts.
456
00:21:43,927 --> 00:21:46,054
It's, like, this part makes me feel weird.
457
00:21:46,138 --> 00:21:48,432
Maybe if it was a little like that.
458
00:21:48,515 --> 00:21:50,642
Okay. Let me test something real quick.
459
00:21:51,893 --> 00:21:54,313
-Excuse me whilst I give you a weird hug.
-[Anh chuckles]
460
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:55,981
Okay.
461
00:21:57,024 --> 00:21:57,983
Oh, yeah.
462
00:22:00,152 --> 00:22:04,323
[Tan] We've given you the waist,
and then this then gives you hips also.
463
00:22:04,406 --> 00:22:07,200
Like, you have curves, womanly curves.
464
00:22:07,284 --> 00:22:10,287
-I do like that I have a chest.
-Love your chest.
465
00:22:10,370 --> 00:22:15,375
I want the shape of it to honor
how the rest of my body is, you know?
466
00:22:15,459 --> 00:22:16,376
Yes.
467
00:22:16,460 --> 00:22:19,046
And then the boot, I'm obsessed with, Anh.
468
00:22:19,129 --> 00:22:22,132
-Are you gonna tell me you hate 'em?
-No. I actually like them.
469
00:22:22,215 --> 00:22:24,092
Great! It gives you an edge.
470
00:22:24,176 --> 00:22:27,179
I love that it offers femininity
without it being too on the nose.
471
00:22:27,262 --> 00:22:28,472
[Anh] I agree.
472
00:22:29,222 --> 00:22:31,683

[Antoni] I'm gonna be

477
00:22:41,693 --> 00:22:43,695
Right. I don't have to tell you
where we are.
478
00:22:43,779 --> 00:22:44,696
Yeah, we're at work.
479
00:22:44,780 --> 00:22:46,740
Usually a little more crowded in here,
huh?
480
00:22:46,823 --> 00:22:49,659
Yeah. I spend a lot of time in here alone,
though, so...
481
00:22:49,743 --> 00:22:50,869
-Oh, you do?
-I do.

00:22:50,952 --> 00:22:53,121
-I like to come before everyone else.
-Gotcha.
483
00:22:53,205 --> 00:22:58,168
I wanna treat this
as much as testing as possible.
484
00:22:58,251 --> 00:22:59,252
Okay.
485
00:22:59,336 --> 00:23:02,506
So at the end of the week, Chef Anh
is launching her Summer Supper Club
486
00:23:02,589 --> 00:23:05,092
where she gets to share dishes
that she grew up with
487
00:23:05,175 --> 00:23:06,927
in her Vietnamese household.
488
00:23:07,010 --> 00:23:10,639
The one thing she still has left
to figure out is a plant-based recipe.
489
00:23:10,722 --> 00:23:13,517
We're here to test. We're here
to have fun. We're here to play.
490
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,687
I love that you're not too precious
and, like, staying in one specific lane.
491
00:23:17,771 --> 00:23:20,440
-I don't want to do that. [laughs]
-[Antoni] No, that's not you.
492
00:23:20,524 --> 00:23:22,401
-[Anh] It's not me.
-Not what we're here for.
493
00:23:22,484 --> 00:23:24,069
-I was obsessed with the wraps.
-Yes.
494
00:23:24,152 --> 00:23:25,487
-[Antoni] Unreal.
-Thank you.
495
00:23:25,570 --> 00:23:27,489
That's how I know Vietnamese cuisine,
496
00:23:27,572 --> 00:23:30,867
is that it's all of this deconstructed
and these beautiful colors,
497
00:23:30,951 --> 00:23:32,285
and you're building your own.
498
00:23:32,369 --> 00:23:33,954
That's the part of it that I love.
499
00:23:34,037 --> 00:23:37,165
One of my favorite things
is recipe testing,
500
00:23:37,249 --> 00:23:39,584
because there's so many discoveries
that come from it.
501
00:23:39,668 --> 00:23:42,421
When you work with somebody else
who's creative and just have fun,
502
00:23:42,504 --> 00:23:43,755
that's the best day for me.
503
00:23:43,839 --> 00:23:46,258
I know we started touching
on plant-based options.
504
00:23:46,341 --> 00:23:48,009
This is a new one.
505
00:23:48,093 --> 00:23:50,595
-Okay.
-So this is Beyond beef, steak version.
506
00:23:50,679 --> 00:23:52,514
-Let's see how this crisps up.
-Sure.
507
00:23:52,597 --> 00:23:53,515
-Are you down?
-Yeah.
508
00:23:53,598 --> 00:23:54,683
-Are you down?
-I'm down!
509
00:23:54,766 --> 00:23:57,936
[Antoni] Okay, great. Boss me around.
So we have our basil, our cilantro.
510
00:23:58,019 --> 00:24:00,439
We have our fresh mint,
our lightly pickled carrots.
511
00:24:00,522 --> 00:24:02,399
We have our green sauce.
512
00:24:02,941 --> 00:24:06,486
Do you feel comfortable
with the menu the way that it is now?
513
00:24:06,570 --> 00:24:09,156
-Everything I've tried...
-I'm never satisfied, Antoni.
514
00:24:09,239 --> 00:24:12,159
So you're even tweaking things
that are already working
515
00:24:12,242 --> 00:24:13,994
and constantly figuring out how to...
516
00:24:14,077 --> 00:24:19,708
Yup. If I am stagnant
and alone with my thoughts,
517
00:24:19,791 --> 00:24:21,543
I almost always get emotional.
518
00:24:21,626 --> 00:24:24,463
You know? When I think about my past,
it, like, makes me sad.
519
00:24:24,546 --> 00:24:27,883
And then to get some of that out
520
00:24:27,966 --> 00:24:32,304
is why I'm constantly, like,
changing stuff with my food, you know?
521
00:24:32,387 --> 00:24:34,431
So is it sometimes,
like a distraction, maybe,
522
00:24:34,514 --> 00:24:36,558
from, like, dealing with, like, feelings?
523
00:24:36,641 --> 00:24:42,272
Oh yeah. I've put so much effort
into what I do here
524
00:24:42,355 --> 00:24:46,943
that, like, I feel just drained
of anything after I leave.
525
00:24:47,027 --> 00:24:52,491
And so then I become
kind of just like a blob at home.
526
00:24:54,409 --> 00:24:56,828
[Antoni] I don't have a relationship
with my mother,
527
00:24:56,912 --> 00:25:01,166
but I have these moments
when I'm preparing Polish food
528
00:25:01,249 --> 00:25:02,334
where I just kind of...
529
00:25:02,417 --> 00:25:05,879
I'm immediately taken back
to, like, what it was like being a kid,
530
00:25:05,962 --> 00:25:09,049
trying it for the first time, seeing
the whole process and how it was made,
531
00:25:09,132 --> 00:25:11,968
that ritual of how it was presented
at the table.
532
00:25:12,052 --> 00:25:12,969
Always.
533
00:25:13,053 --> 00:25:16,097
My mom used to just, like, enlist my help
in, like, small projects.
534
00:25:16,181 --> 00:25:18,934
Like, I would peel the shrimp
or rinse the rice,
535
00:25:19,017 --> 00:25:20,268
um, and I would just watch her.
536
00:25:20,352 --> 00:25:22,604
When I try to recreate it,
I'm envisioning it.
537
00:25:22,687 --> 00:25:24,564
-But it's a fun journey too.
-[Anh] Yeah.
538
00:25:24,648 --> 00:25:28,735
And I can smell and hear and taste
everything just how it was.
539
00:25:28,818 --> 00:25:31,154
-I can remember it like yesterday.
-Mm-hmm.
540
00:25:31,738 --> 00:25:32,656
It's happy sad,
541
00:25:32,739 --> 00:25:36,034
and it's, like, I feel like both of them
can kind of coexist together.
542
00:25:36,117 --> 00:25:37,035
Yeah.
543
00:25:37,118 --> 00:25:40,121
[Antoni] So maybe instead of using cooking
as a way to forget the bad,
544
00:25:40,205 --> 00:25:42,499
use it as a way to remember the good.
545
00:25:42,582 --> 00:25:45,460
Preparing her mom's food
and sharing it with other people
546
00:25:45,544 --> 00:25:48,171
is so important
during the grieving process
547
00:25:48,255 --> 00:25:49,714
'cause it's a process.
548
00:25:49,798 --> 00:25:51,841
It doesn't just end one day
when you wake up.
549
00:25:51,925 --> 00:25:54,469
Some days you're happy.
Some days you're sad.
550
00:25:54,553 --> 00:25:56,263
But you can always honor that person.
551
00:25:56,346 --> 00:26:01,351
I just hope that she continues
to go as personal as she possibly can.
552
00:26:01,434 --> 00:26:03,812
[Anh] Okay, these are the things
that I use in the marinade.
553
00:26:03,895 --> 00:26:06,022
-[Antoni] Granulated garlic.
-This is the lemongrass.
554
00:26:06,106 --> 00:26:07,107
[Antoni] Perfect.
555
00:26:07,190 --> 00:26:09,818
[Anh] I kind of use equal parts
of tamari and Maggi.
556
00:26:09,901 --> 00:26:10,735
[Antoni] Yup.
557
00:26:10,819 --> 00:26:12,654
And then our wonderful shallot oil.
558
00:26:13,238 --> 00:26:14,781
-[Anh] You don't need very much.
-Okay.
559
00:26:14,864 --> 00:26:15,991
So that's it.
560
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,035
I usually marinate regular beef.
561
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,788
-Do you think we should coat it?
-I think we should.
562
00:26:21,871 --> 00:26:24,624
-Perfect.
-Let's just mix it all in there.
563
00:26:24,708 --> 00:26:26,960
-[Anh] Now it can go into a pan.
-[Antoni] Okay.
564
00:26:28,837 --> 00:26:30,130
Okay!
565
00:26:30,714 --> 00:26:33,216
-You can see it crisping.
-[Antoni] It's getting a little brown.
566
00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:34,801
I love to see that.
567
00:26:34,884 --> 00:26:36,553
[Anh] And plating is so simple.
568
00:26:37,137 --> 00:26:39,180
-[Antoni] Yeah, let's try it.
-[Anh] It smells good.
569
00:26:39,764 --> 00:26:42,267
Okay, that's beautiful.
570
00:26:42,350 --> 00:26:46,646
So I like herbs first,
and then I do the pickled veg.
571
00:26:46,730 --> 00:26:48,857
Then I do the meat.
572
00:26:49,357 --> 00:26:52,193
-Then I go fried onions last.
-[Antoni] Fried onions last.
573
00:26:52,277 --> 00:26:53,945
-You get that crunch.
-[Anh] Then sauce.
574
00:26:54,029 --> 00:26:55,614
-Yeah.
-[Antoni] Oh, the sauce.
575
00:26:55,697 --> 00:26:57,449
-Not forgetting the sauce.
-[Anh] And then...
576
00:26:57,532 --> 00:26:59,492
[rock music playing]
577
00:27:01,745 --> 00:27:02,579
Oh.
578
00:27:03,830 --> 00:27:05,498
I can't tell the difference.
579
00:27:05,999 --> 00:27:08,418
That's pretty shocking.
This is just like meat.
580
00:27:08,918 --> 00:27:10,962
-That's really fricking good, right?
-Mm-hmm.
581
00:27:11,046 --> 00:27:12,464
-[Antoni] Holy crap.
-[Anh] Mm-hmm.
582
00:27:12,547 --> 00:27:15,967
So how is this gonna complement
the overall menu for the Supper Club?
583
00:27:16,051 --> 00:27:19,137
I could use the same seasoning,
the same marinade,
584
00:27:19,220 --> 00:27:24,142
and then there's gonna be white rice,
so people can pair it with whatever, yeah.
585
00:27:24,225 --> 00:27:27,896
It was so lucky to grow up with my mom
and how she fed us.
586
00:27:27,979 --> 00:27:30,106
-[Antoni] Yeah.
-It really affected the rest of my life.
587
00:27:30,774 --> 00:27:33,777
And doing a dinner like this,
I wanna get out of my funk
588
00:27:33,860 --> 00:27:35,820
and get out of the kitchen,
589
00:27:35,904 --> 00:27:37,739
interact with my guests more.
590
00:27:37,822 --> 00:27:40,784
-Yeah.
-This dinner is... is for me.
591
00:27:40,867 --> 00:27:42,160
-And for your mom.
-[Anh] Yup.
592
00:27:42,243 --> 00:27:43,703
-You know?
-And for the culture.

597
00:27:56,466 --> 00:27:58,510
-[Anh] Really?
-[Karamo] I'm not even joking.
598
00:27:58,593 --> 00:27:59,469
Thank you.
599
00:27:59,552 --> 00:28:01,554
Is it relaxing when you start cooking?
600
00:28:02,055 --> 00:28:06,810
It is, but then I get immersed,
and then I... I lose myself,
601
00:28:06,893 --> 00:28:08,186
and then I'm like, "Shit!"
602
00:28:08,269 --> 00:28:10,855
"Now I've been working for so long,
and I'm tired as..."
603
00:28:10,939 --> 00:28:12,524
-[Karamo laughs] Yeah.
-[laughs]
604
00:28:12,607 --> 00:28:13,817
[Karamo] Not enough you time.
605
00:28:13,900 --> 00:28:16,611
[chuckles] Right, but just, like,
my mind clears a little bit.
606
00:28:16,695 --> 00:28:17,821
Yeah.
607
00:28:18,405 --> 00:28:20,532
-I wanna go back to your father a bit.
-Mm-hmm.
608
00:28:20,615 --> 00:28:23,118
-[Karamo] Were you and your father close?
-We were.
609
00:28:23,201 --> 00:28:24,828
-Really?
-Yeah.
610
00:28:24,911 --> 00:28:26,621
-Were you, like, a daddy's girl?
-I was.
611
00:28:26,705 --> 00:28:30,583
And so it... it affected our relationship
a lot after my mom died
612
00:28:30,667 --> 00:28:33,253
because I felt
like he wasn't the same dad.
613
00:28:33,878 --> 00:28:34,963
Mm-hmm.
614
00:28:37,882 --> 00:28:40,301
What are the things that your father did
615
00:28:40,385 --> 00:28:43,138
that made you feel
like you didn't have your dad?
616
00:28:43,722 --> 00:28:46,975
He remarried pretty quickly.
617
00:28:48,101 --> 00:28:51,521
It was not very long
after my mother passed, so...
618
00:28:51,604 --> 00:28:53,523
-Like, how long?
-Like, six months.
619
00:28:53,606 --> 00:28:54,691
-Got it.
-Yeah.
620
00:28:54,774 --> 00:28:58,027
And he kept the whole thing a secret.
621
00:28:59,237 --> 00:29:01,448
So, yeah,
I have a lot of feelings about that.
622
00:29:01,531 --> 00:29:04,451
So while you were grieving,
623
00:29:05,410 --> 00:29:07,829
you then felt rejected from him.
624
00:29:07,912 --> 00:29:08,830
Yeah.
625
00:29:09,873 --> 00:29:11,541
I love my dad still.
626
00:29:12,083 --> 00:29:15,044
But the ones you love the most,
when they betray you,
627
00:29:15,128 --> 00:29:17,714
are the hardest to talk to, you know?
628
00:29:17,797 --> 00:29:18,798
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
629
00:29:19,924 --> 00:29:22,844
Anh, the only way to fix betrayal
is getting answers.
630
00:29:22,927 --> 00:29:25,388
Am I about to have a conversation
with my dad?
631
00:29:25,472 --> 00:29:27,974
-Yeah, we're gonna FaceTime him.
-And he agreed to it?
632
00:29:28,057 --> 00:29:29,559
-[Karamo] He did.
-Y'all talked to him?
633
00:29:29,642 --> 00:29:31,519

I have a lot of trouble communicating
everything that I feel with my family.
637
00:29:41,112 --> 00:29:43,198
[Karamo] Yeah. I wanna make sure
that you can say,
638
00:29:43,281 --> 00:29:46,743
"You made decisions that affected
how I'm feeling still to this day."
639
00:29:47,660 --> 00:29:48,536
Yeah.
640
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:51,039
And you have to be able to express that.
641
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:53,750
-[Karamo] I want you to feel supported.
-Yeah.
642
00:29:54,501 --> 00:29:56,920
So, that way, you can get what you need
off your chest
643
00:29:57,003 --> 00:29:59,422
and that will be a big piece
of the healing.
644
00:30:00,215 --> 00:30:02,258
When it comes to family,
sometimes it feels easier
645
00:30:02,342 --> 00:30:05,762
not to focus on or deal with the issues
that are tearing you apart.
646
00:30:05,845 --> 00:30:08,056
Anh has been holding onto this pain,
647
00:30:08,139 --> 00:30:11,392
and she's using cooking as a way
of distracting herself
648
00:30:11,476 --> 00:30:14,479
from really focusing
and confronting what's bothering her.
649
00:30:14,562 --> 00:30:15,730
For Anh to move forward,
650
00:30:15,814 --> 00:30:19,400
she has to confront the relationship
that she's been hiding from.
651
00:30:19,484 --> 00:30:20,568
Her father.

Long time no see, bin.
658
00:30:34,415 --> 00:30:36,000
[Anh] You look healthy.
659
00:30:37,418 --> 00:30:40,046
You want me to talk for you a little bit?
To get started?
660
00:30:40,129 --> 00:30:41,172
-Yeah, sure.
-Hi.
661
00:30:41,256 --> 00:30:42,841
I'm with my friend here.
662
00:30:42,924 --> 00:30:43,925
[Tac] Hi.
663
00:30:44,008 --> 00:30:46,594
[Karamo] How are you?
She said she was daddy's girl.
664
00:30:46,678 --> 00:30:50,014
-Yeah.
-You know that, and she misses her father.
665
00:30:50,098 --> 00:30:53,518
And this is an opportunity
for you two to talk.
666
00:30:54,435 --> 00:30:56,312
Does that still sound good to you?
667
00:30:56,396 --> 00:30:57,814
Yeah. That's good.
668
00:30:57,897 --> 00:30:59,065
Okay, great.
669
00:31:00,066 --> 00:31:01,943
Okay. Um...
670
00:31:02,026 --> 00:31:06,072
I still don't understand
why you lied to me about getting married.
671
00:31:06,155 --> 00:31:08,533
No, I didn't lie to you.
672
00:31:09,117 --> 00:31:09,951
And this is...
673
00:31:10,034 --> 00:31:14,706
I mean, you not inviting me or telling me
about the wedding before it happened
674
00:31:14,789 --> 00:31:15,790
was lying,
675
00:31:16,374 --> 00:31:20,920
and I... I felt like you forgot about mom...
or us.
676
00:31:21,004 --> 00:31:23,798
I felt like you were leaving us.
[sniffles]
677
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:26,259
[tender music playing]
678
00:31:26,342 --> 00:31:28,511
And I don't know why you did that.
679
00:31:35,268 --> 00:31:36,477
Why did you do that?
680
00:31:39,772 --> 00:31:44,485
Hey, I'm here just to support both of you
in having a good conversation.
681
00:31:44,569 --> 00:31:47,697
Do you feel sad for the fact
that your daughter feels this way?
682
00:31:47,780 --> 00:31:49,616
{\an8}[Tac] What do you want me to help you?
683
00:31:49,699 --> 00:31:51,826
{\an8}[Anh] I just want you
to tell me the truth.
684
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,537
You told us you were going to New Orleans.
Remember that?
685
00:31:54,621 --> 00:31:56,664
And then you went to go marry this woman.
686
00:31:56,748 --> 00:32:00,960
You had a party,
and there were pictures of it on Facebook.
687
00:32:01,044 --> 00:32:03,087
It was embarrassing.
688
00:32:03,171 --> 00:32:05,381
It was... It made me feel
689
00:32:05,882 --> 00:32:09,010
like you didn't even want me to be there.
690
00:32:09,969 --> 00:32:13,014
[crying] Why does she matter more than me?
691
00:32:16,225 --> 00:32:22,440
[Tac] In Vietnamese culture,
the kid talk to a parent like this...
692
00:32:22,523 --> 00:32:23,775
[Anh] It's disrespectful.
693
00:32:24,609 --> 00:32:26,027
I don't... I don't know.
694
00:32:26,110 --> 00:32:28,988
This... this is always
what happens when we talk.
695
00:32:29,072 --> 00:32:31,532
You can't just say,
696
00:32:31,616 --> 00:32:35,286
"I'm sorry, and I love you,
and I'm your dad, and I'm really sorry."
697
00:32:35,370 --> 00:32:40,249
And that's all I need to hear.
I don't need any excuse, and I don't need...
698
00:32:42,418 --> 00:32:44,963
[Tac] If I told you
that I'm married to her,
699
00:32:45,046 --> 00:32:48,549
you'd be angry with me that time.
700
00:32:48,633 --> 00:32:52,470
And that's why you lied because you were
afraid that I was gonna be mad?
701
00:32:52,553 --> 00:32:55,014
That's why I had to keep secret.
702
00:32:55,098 --> 00:32:57,141
She takes care of me good.
703
00:32:57,225 --> 00:32:58,559
And she a good woman.
704
00:32:59,811 --> 00:33:01,437
Try to understand this.
705
00:33:02,355 --> 00:33:04,691
I was so very lonely,
706
00:33:05,775 --> 00:33:08,277
and I can't live there anymore.
707
00:33:11,656 --> 00:33:16,077
{\an8}I don't want to see anything from your mom
708
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,914
because it would make me feel, like...
709
00:33:19,998 --> 00:33:21,457
Sad, depressed, I know.
710
00:33:21,541 --> 00:33:25,545
If you would've told us
that you wanted to be with this woman
711
00:33:25,628 --> 00:33:28,214
and you needed her to take care of you,
712
00:33:28,297 --> 00:33:30,466
of course we would've been okay.
713
00:33:30,550 --> 00:33:33,094
{\an8}[Tac] I'm really sorry we don't talk.
714
00:33:33,803 --> 00:33:35,430
{\an8}I made a mistake.
715
00:33:39,350 --> 00:33:41,269
I'm sorry I didn't say anything sooner.
716
00:33:41,352 --> 00:33:43,438
I really am, because I just miss you,
717
00:33:43,521 --> 00:33:47,108
and I just wanna be able
to feel comfortable around you,
718
00:33:47,191 --> 00:33:50,278
and I couldn't do that
without talking about it.
719
00:33:50,778 --> 00:33:53,781
{\an8}[Tac] I apologize for that.
720
00:33:54,532 --> 00:33:55,366
Thank you.
721
00:33:55,908 --> 00:33:56,993
I accept it.
722
00:33:57,744 --> 00:34:01,914
{\an8}[Tac] I want to bring her to everybody,
723
00:34:01,998 --> 00:34:05,168
{\an8}meet everybody in our family.
724
00:34:05,752 --> 00:34:09,756
Well, I think enough time has passed
that we can try to make that happen.
725
00:34:09,839 --> 00:34:10,965
I love you, bin.
726
00:34:11,049 --> 00:34:12,592
I love you too, Bố.
727
00:34:13,551 --> 00:34:15,887
All right, sir.
We'll talk to you later, okay?
728
00:34:16,387 --> 00:34:18,056
-[Tac] Thank you.
-[Karamo] Have a good one.
729
00:34:18,139 --> 00:34:18,973
[Anh] Bye.
730
00:34:21,142 --> 00:34:22,143
How do you feel?
731
00:34:23,603 --> 00:34:26,439
-You just got a lot off your chest.
-I know. I really did.
732
00:34:26,522 --> 00:34:28,524
We'll just take a deep breath. [chuckles]
733
00:34:28,608 --> 00:34:32,487
Whoo! Stretch it out. You just did
some emotional growth and healing there.
734
00:34:32,570 --> 00:34:33,529
You did a good job.
735
00:34:33,613 --> 00:34:34,572
Yeah.
736
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,908
-He's still grieving.
-Yeah.
737
00:34:36,991 --> 00:34:39,702
The unfortunate part
is your father ran away from the grief.
738
00:34:39,786 --> 00:34:44,123
He didn't have the emotional language
and tools to be able to support you,
739
00:34:44,207 --> 00:34:47,960
but what's the most important
is you got to say your truth.
740
00:34:48,044 --> 00:34:51,255
-You have to feel empowered right now.
-I do. I really do.
741
00:34:51,339 --> 00:34:53,591
But now it's up to me, right? That's...
742
00:34:53,674 --> 00:34:55,551
To go on my forgiveness journey.
743
00:34:55,635 --> 00:34:58,971
Don't feel like you ever have to go
into this place where you cannot talk
744
00:34:59,055 --> 00:35:00,848
or you cannot share
what you're feeling.
745
00:35:00,932 --> 00:35:03,059
You just stay firm like how you did here.
746
00:35:03,893 --> 00:35:05,853
I feel a lot better.
747
00:35:05,937 --> 00:35:07,855
-Good.
-Yeah, I do.
748
00:35:08,856 --> 00:35:09,941
Thank you.

[upbeat music playing]
750
00:35:18,950 --> 00:35:21,035
Anh has such a bubbly personality,
751
00:35:21,119 --> 00:35:24,497
but her house was kind of devoid
of anything that really says,
752
00:35:24,580 --> 00:35:28,918
"This is Anh's house."
Although it is a more narrow space,
753
00:35:29,001 --> 00:35:32,130
I put wallpaper on the ceiling
'cause it draws your eye up,
754
00:35:32,213 --> 00:35:35,550
and it made the space feel
even larger than it did before.
755
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:38,886
It feels so cool,
and I cannot wait for Anh to see it.

00:38:31,726 --> 00:38:33,352
He's about to be 80.
826
00:38:33,853 --> 00:38:36,897
I did have a big fear
that if we didn't make up before he died,
827
00:38:36,981 --> 00:38:38,316
I would've regretted it, you know.
828
00:38:38,399 --> 00:38:41,319
My grandma used to say,
"Never let the sun set on your anger."
829
00:38:41,402 --> 00:38:43,362
You know, I was reading this thing,
830
00:38:43,446 --> 00:38:45,406
and it was talking about how, like,
831
00:38:45,489 --> 00:38:49,160
once we know the story
of our trauma and pain,
832
00:38:49,243 --> 00:38:52,079
then part of it
is just, like, letting it go,
833
00:38:52,747 --> 00:38:56,208
'cause you don't have to keep going back
to, like, kick that tire.
834
00:38:56,292 --> 00:38:59,420
It's important to you
'cause it makes you who you are, but...
835
00:38:59,962 --> 00:39:03,215
-You don't have to carry the hurt.
-You don't have to keep hurting.
836
00:39:03,299 --> 00:39:05,634
"That's an old story
that I'm not gonna tell myself anymore."
837
00:39:05,718 --> 00:39:06,594
It's true.
838
00:39:06,677 --> 00:39:08,763
-We are moving some mountains today.
-I'm so done!
839
00:39:08,846 --> 00:39:13,851
Are you, like... We are giving, like,
Whitney and Mariah, Prince of Egypt.
840
00:39:13,934 --> 00:39:16,354
I also love this color.
It's gonna be so slutty.

-Yes.

855
00:39:48,094 --> 00:39:49,762
You're a hard on yourself sometimes.
856
00:39:49,845 --> 00:39:53,432
I feel it, I see it, and what my biggest
hope in my queer heart of hearts is,
857
00:39:53,516 --> 00:39:56,894
is that you walk out of this experience
speaking kindly to yourself
858
00:39:56,977 --> 00:39:58,938
because you're a good person,
you work so hard,
859
00:39:59,021 --> 00:40:02,358
you're an incredible daughter, and you're
enough just as you are, you know?
860
00:40:02,441 --> 00:40:03,526
Thank you.
861
00:40:03,609 --> 00:40:05,027

00:40:14,245 --> 00:40:15,496
I like that.

All right! Oh my gosh.
I love it. The makeup is perfect.

-[Jonathan] Get all up in it.

868
00:40:22,044 --> 00:40:26,966
[Jonathan] I went in with the layers,
so it can give this when she's working.
869
00:40:27,049 --> 00:40:27,883
Okay, yeah.
870
00:40:27,967 --> 00:40:30,594
[Jonathan] She can give this,
and then just put in a little clip.

Oh my God. The fringe is so good.

-[Anh] Yes!

00:41:12,261 --> 00:41:14,680

-Oh my gosh.
-...are the coolest thing ever.
895
00:41:31,530 --> 00:41:34,200

-Yes, it really does.
896
00:41:34,283 --> 00:41:36,452
-Oh, Sam's gonna love this.
-[Karamo] Look at that couch.
897
00:41:36,535 --> 00:41:39,205
-[Anh] This couch is so fabulous.
-[Bobby] You love it?
898
00:41:39,288 --> 00:41:42,166
I feel like I'm in a trendy restaurant.
[laughs]
899
00:41:42,249 --> 00:41:43,209
[Bobby] Hey!
900
00:41:43,292 --> 00:41:47,296
Lots of texture,
lots of natural materials.
901
00:41:47,379 --> 00:41:51,634
The altar is still there
with the same little incense thing.
902
00:41:52,593 --> 00:41:56,764
[Bobby] Oranges. I wanted to make a really
special place to remember your mom.
903
00:41:56,847 --> 00:41:59,141
-[Anh] Oh my gosh!
-[Bobby] So every time you come... Right?
904
00:41:59,225 --> 00:42:02,102
This is what my mom used
to plug the incense in
905
00:42:02,186 --> 00:42:04,772
for the ancestor shrines in our home.
906
00:42:04,855 --> 00:42:06,815
She would love this.
907
00:42:06,899 --> 00:42:08,192
It's so classy.
908
00:42:08,275 --> 00:42:10,819
I want you to remember
how proud of you she is.
909
00:42:10,903 --> 00:42:11,904
[Anh] Mm-hmm.
910
00:42:13,781 --> 00:42:15,699
-Thank you so much.
-[Bobby] Of course.
911
00:42:15,783 --> 00:42:17,284
-Are you ready to see more?
-[Anh] Yes!
912
00:42:17,368 --> 00:42:18,786
-[Bobby] Yeah? Okay.
-[gasps]
913
00:42:18,869 --> 00:42:20,579
This is so beautiful.
914
00:42:20,663 --> 00:42:23,624
-Look at these plates!
-[Jonathan] Oh my God, a banquette table!
915
00:42:23,707 --> 00:42:26,669
The dining room in here,
and you have the living room in here.
916
00:42:26,752 --> 00:42:29,004
-I wanted to mix that up.
-[Anh] Okay.
917
00:42:29,088 --> 00:42:31,048
[Bobby] I wanted to give you
a space to entertain,
918
00:42:31,131 --> 00:42:34,843
and this being the closest to the kitchen,
it makes more sense when you're cooking.
919
00:42:34,927 --> 00:42:36,387
-Yes!
-Functional and pretty.
920
00:42:36,470 --> 00:42:38,556
[laughs] Oh my gosh!
921
00:42:38,639 --> 00:42:39,932

-[Jonathan] Cute!
-New dishwasher.
929
00:42:54,405 --> 00:42:56,073
[Bobby] All these
great new Smeg appliances.
930
00:42:56,156 --> 00:42:57,992
Ah! Knife magnets!
931
00:42:58,075 --> 00:43:00,995
[Bobby] A whole wall for pots and pans.
Not just that one little peg.

-Love.

[Antoni] Obsessed!
935
00:43:06,834 --> 00:43:09,420
-You can take a deep breath in here now.
-Yes.
936
00:43:09,503 --> 00:43:12,298
With all the colors before,
it felt a little collegey.
937
00:43:12,381 --> 00:43:14,592
-[Anh] Yeah.
-This feels a lot more sophisticated.
938
00:43:14,675 --> 00:43:17,094
This is your test kitchen
for your summer dinners.
939
00:43:17,177 --> 00:43:18,095
[Anh] Yes!

-[Bobby] I love those type of reactions.
-Oh my God!
944
00:43:29,064 --> 00:43:30,816
The ceiling is amazing.
945
00:43:30,899 --> 00:43:33,902
[Jonathan]
Honey, this room says, "Sensual!"
946
00:43:33,986 --> 00:43:36,030
-[Karamo] Oh my gosh!
-Oh my God!
947
00:43:36,113 --> 00:43:39,491
-[Jonathan] It's giving erotica!
-[Anh] I could never imagine the bed here.
948
00:43:39,575 --> 00:43:42,661
Flow-wise, putting the bed opposite
of the door is always better
949
00:43:42,745 --> 00:43:45,914
because the energy flows
in and out of the room.
950
00:43:45,998 --> 00:43:48,500
-[Antoni] This a big old bed.
-[Anh] I love it. Yeah.
951
00:43:48,584 --> 00:43:50,628
Do you know what I'm obsessed with?
952
00:43:50,711 --> 00:43:52,921
The detailing on the doorway.
953
00:43:53,005 --> 00:43:53,922
[Anh laughs]
954
00:43:54,006 --> 00:43:55,382

[laughs]
956
00:43:57,176 --> 00:44:00,471
Which leads me to my lesson,
which is we're going to get on the bed.
957
00:44:00,554 --> 00:44:02,389
-We're gonna learn our choreography.
-Okay.
958
00:44:02,473 --> 00:44:04,350
-[Bobby] ♪ Don't you mess up the bed ♪
-It goes...

-[Anh] Yeah.
961
00:44:09,730 --> 00:44:11,357
[laughing]
962
00:44:11,940 --> 00:44:15,778
What we're really going to talk about is,
like, "Queen, how do I do my face stuff?"
963
00:44:15,861 --> 00:44:17,488
-[Anh] Yeah.
-This is gonna be our lesson.
964
00:44:17,571 --> 00:44:18,447
Okay.
965
00:44:18,530 --> 00:44:20,324
[Jonathan] You're gonna take
some tissue paper,
966
00:44:20,407 --> 00:44:22,618
and you're going to pat
all the excess mascara off.
967
00:44:22,701 --> 00:44:24,828
-You don't need that much mascara.
-Right.
968
00:44:24,912 --> 00:44:27,164
I'm really just trying
to aim towards your tips.
969
00:44:27,247 --> 00:44:28,248
Not the whole thing?
970
00:44:28,332 --> 00:44:30,125
-[Jonathan] I like the tips better.
-Okay.
971
00:44:30,209 --> 00:44:31,377
Up. Up. Ah!
972
00:44:31,460 --> 00:44:33,879
It looks so good.
So you repeat on this side.
973
00:44:35,923 --> 00:44:38,967
There you go.
Love. Now curl while it's wet.
974
00:44:39,468 --> 00:44:41,595
Yes, queen.
I'm living for what you're doing.
975
00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:42,805
Lashes are killing it.
976
00:44:42,888 --> 00:44:43,889
It looks so good.
977
00:44:43,972 --> 00:44:46,475
Anh, whenever we get overwhelmed,
978
00:44:46,558 --> 00:44:48,102
whenever we get stressed,
979
00:44:48,185 --> 00:44:51,480
you have an internal wisdom
that knows how to take care of yourself,
980
00:44:51,563 --> 00:44:53,107
knows how to forgive yourself.
981
00:44:53,190 --> 00:44:55,025
That's your inner sexy slut,
982
00:44:55,109 --> 00:44:58,696
'cause I won't always be there
as your fairy godparent. Zing!
983
00:44:59,488 --> 00:45:00,739
-[Karamo] Hi, gorge.
-[Anh] Hi.
984
00:45:00,823 --> 00:45:03,492
-How are you doing?
-I'm doing good.
985
00:45:03,575 --> 00:45:04,743
-Good.
-Yeah.
986
00:45:04,827 --> 00:45:05,994
When we first came in,
987
00:45:06,078 --> 00:45:09,832
you had said to me that you had so much
that was weighing you down.
988
00:45:09,915 --> 00:45:10,749
Mm-hmm.
989
00:45:10,833 --> 00:45:13,669
And me seeing you show up for yourself
in the way you did
990
00:45:13,752 --> 00:45:18,340
by speaking up for yourself
and advocating for what you were feeling
991
00:45:18,424 --> 00:45:20,342
was a very powerful moment.
992
00:45:21,301 --> 00:45:24,054
I just... I... I knew
that I couldn't hold it in anymore.
993
00:45:24,638 --> 00:45:28,726
It's funny that my dad brought up the fact
that I don't normally talk to him that way
994
00:45:28,809 --> 00:45:30,269
because it's disrespectful,
995
00:45:30,352 --> 00:45:34,189
and it was like... it just prompted me
even more to say what I wanted.
996
00:45:34,273 --> 00:45:35,232
Good.
997
00:45:35,315 --> 00:45:37,443
That's why our relationship
has fallen apart,
998
00:45:37,526 --> 00:45:42,281
because of this construct that isn't real.
999
00:45:42,865 --> 00:45:46,827
I was trying to connect with him
on a person-to-person level,
1000
00:45:47,786 --> 00:45:51,790
which is something that I've never felt
like I've been able to do
1001
00:45:51,874 --> 00:45:55,544
with my mother throughout her whole life,
and with my father now.
1002
00:45:55,627 --> 00:45:56,462
Good.
1003
00:45:56,545 --> 00:45:59,715
So I don't want that
to happen with him too.
1004
00:45:59,798 --> 00:46:01,508
-Good.
-[Anh] I feel better about it though.
1005
00:46:02,009 --> 00:46:04,094
-I feel good about it.
-You're good.
1006
00:46:04,178 --> 00:46:05,012
[both laugh]
1007
00:46:05,095 --> 00:46:07,181
-You're great too. I'm just sayin'.
-You're good.
1008
00:46:07,264 --> 00:46:08,640
[Karamo] You're good. You're good.
1009
00:46:10,184 --> 00:46:11,560
-[Tan] About tonight?
-[Anh] Yes.
1010
00:46:11,643 --> 00:46:15,481
-It's your first proper Summer Supper.
-[Anh] It is.
1011
00:46:15,564 --> 00:46:18,692
[Tan] Just because it's your first one,
I think it'd be nice if you did
1012
00:46:18,776 --> 00:46:20,527
wear something like a chef's coat.
1013
00:46:20,611 --> 00:46:23,447
Maybe just keep it a lot more simple,
but not casual-casual.
1014
00:46:23,530 --> 00:46:25,032
-Right.
-[Tan] And we can work on that.
1015
00:46:25,115 --> 00:46:25,949
Okay.
1016
00:46:28,243 --> 00:46:30,329
[overlapping chatter]
1017
00:46:30,412 --> 00:46:32,039
-[Antoni] Oh my God.
-[Bobby] Hi, Sam.
1018
00:46:32,873 --> 00:46:34,750
-Hello.
-[Karamo] Blown away? You can take it in.
1019
00:46:34,833 --> 00:46:37,544
-[Sam] Is this the right address?
-This is it! This is your home.
1020
00:46:37,628 --> 00:46:40,047
-[Jonathan] It's amazing.
-[Sam] I mean, oh my gosh.
1021
00:46:40,130 --> 00:46:42,382
[Jonathan] I can't wait till you see Anh.
1022
00:46:43,592 --> 00:46:46,804
Wow. This is just, like, "Wow."
I'm just gonna... [breathes deeply]
1023
00:46:46,887 --> 00:46:49,389
-[Tan] All right, kids. Oh, hey, Sam!
-[Sam] Hey, Tan.
1024
00:46:49,473 --> 00:46:51,892
-Hello, mate. How are you?
-[Sam] Good to see you. I'm great.
1025
00:46:51,975 --> 00:46:54,895
Wait till you see her. She's gorge.
So, Anh?
1026
00:46:55,479 --> 00:46:57,439
Oh, Didi! Oh my gosh!
1027
00:46:57,523 --> 00:46:59,024
[Karamo] Oh, sexy!
1028
00:46:59,900 --> 00:47:01,819
-Sam!
-[Sam] Hey!
1029
00:47:01,902 --> 00:47:03,362
-[Anh] Hi!
-Oh, I love it.
1030
00:47:03,445 --> 00:47:04,780
[Sam] You look great!
1031
00:47:04,863 --> 00:47:06,990
[Anh laughs]
1032
00:47:07,074 --> 00:47:10,035
-[Jonathan] Yes! Kiss her!
-[Anh] I wasn't expecting you here.
1033
00:47:10,118 --> 00:47:11,829
[Jonathan] Kiss her! Kiss her!
1034
00:47:11,912 --> 00:47:14,456
Yay for kisses!
1035
00:47:14,540 --> 00:47:16,250
-All right, Sam. Sit down!
-Okay, sit down.
1036
00:47:16,333 --> 00:47:17,918
-So...
-She looks good, doesn't she?
1037
00:47:18,001 --> 00:47:20,504
She looks amazing.
Babe, you look fabulous.
1038
00:47:20,587 --> 00:47:21,421
[Karamo] Aw.
1039
00:47:21,505 --> 00:47:23,882
Because you're gonna be cooking,
there's one thing missing.
1040
00:47:23,966 --> 00:47:25,259
-Give me two seconds.
-Oh.
1041
00:47:25,342 --> 00:47:26,260
Oh my God.
1042
00:47:26,343 --> 00:47:27,594
-Is it a hat?
-It's a tiara!
1043
00:47:27,678 --> 00:47:30,514
-You just need one final touch.
-Oh!
1044
00:47:30,597 --> 00:47:33,809
You can't be a chic executive chef
without...
1045
00:47:33,892 --> 00:47:35,269
{\an8}Oh, cute!
1046
00:47:35,352 --> 00:47:37,688
{\an8}-[Antoni] Oh my goodness.
-Chef's coat!
1047
00:47:37,771 --> 00:47:39,898
-[Anh] Oh my God, snapping!
-[Tan] Yeah.
1048
00:47:39,982 --> 00:47:41,066
[Jonathan] Yes, queen.
1049
00:47:41,149 --> 00:47:42,359
I love it.
1050
00:47:42,442 --> 00:47:45,279
-This is cute!
-[Tan] Look at how professional she looks.
1051
00:47:45,362 --> 00:47:48,115
-[Anh] Thank you. This is so nice.
-[Tan] You're ready.
1052
00:47:48,198 --> 00:47:50,534
I say, "Summer," you say, "Slut."
1053
00:47:50,617 --> 00:47:51,827
-Summer!
-Slut!
1054
00:47:51,910 --> 00:47:53,161
-[Jonathan] Summer!
-Slut!
1055
00:47:53,245 --> 00:47:56,248
-[Jonathan] Yay!
-[laughing]
1056
00:47:56,331 --> 00:47:58,333
[uplifting music playing]
1057
00:48:03,505 --> 00:48:05,632
Summer Supper Club!
1058
00:48:05,716 --> 00:48:10,721
This is the most exciting series
of the New Orleans social calendar, honey.
1059
00:48:10,804 --> 00:48:13,724
A culinary extravaganza, if you will.
1060
00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:16,393
[Anh] Welcome to my kitchen again.
1061
00:48:16,476 --> 00:48:18,645
You two pass the menus out.
1062
00:48:18,729 --> 00:48:23,066
Okay, I want to give a nice little zhuzh
to these sesame rice crackers
1063
00:48:23,150 --> 00:48:24,818
with the torch right here.
1064
00:48:25,611 --> 00:48:26,612
[Bobby] Yeah.
1065
00:48:26,695 --> 00:48:29,031
[Jonathan] We're running around,
setting up, pouring water,
1066
00:48:29,114 --> 00:48:31,783
doing menus, saying hello.
We got a lot of stuff to do.
1067
00:48:31,867 --> 00:48:34,161
I need a hot coffee for table six, stat.
1068
00:48:34,244 --> 00:48:35,370
[Anh laughs]
1069
00:48:35,454 --> 00:48:37,873
Go find a front-of-the-house person.
1070
00:48:37,956 --> 00:48:41,251
-Where are the crushed peanuts?
-So once that comes out...
1071
00:48:41,335 --> 00:48:44,922
[Tan] Anh is nervous.
She's not just cooking her food.
1072
00:48:45,005 --> 00:48:48,467
She has to entertain her guests.
She has to tell them what it's all about.
1073
00:48:48,550 --> 00:48:51,595
Like, I still have to send out
the first course, the oysters.
1074
00:48:51,678 --> 00:48:53,347
They're going to be baked first.
1075
00:48:53,430 --> 00:48:55,223
They have the butter and the scallions,
1076
00:48:55,307 --> 00:48:58,268
and then we're sprinkling peanuts
on top of them.
1077
00:48:58,352 --> 00:49:01,688
[Tan] She's going to honor her mom
in the most beautiful way,
1078
00:49:01,772 --> 00:49:05,108
and I know that she's gonna
make her mom so proud.
1079
00:49:05,859 --> 00:49:07,903
-[Bobby] How are you feeling?
-[Anh] I'm feeling good.
1080
00:49:07,986 --> 00:49:10,072
A little nervous, but good. Excited.
1081
00:49:10,155 --> 00:49:11,949
-[Bobby] You got this.
-I got this. So ready.
1082
00:49:12,032 --> 00:49:13,158
-So ready.
-[Anh] Totally.
1083
00:49:13,241 --> 00:49:15,953
And we're also stopping
by delegation station
1084
00:49:16,036 --> 00:49:19,957
so you don't stay back here too long
so that you can mingle with the people.
1085
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,502
-Because you are what?
-Boss bitch, sexy slut, Anh Luu. Yes.
1086
00:49:23,585 --> 00:49:25,045
-[cheering]
-[laughs]
1087
00:49:25,128 --> 00:49:27,297
Go on, you sexy slut. Say hi!
1088
00:49:27,381 --> 00:49:29,466
[ethereal music playing]
1089
00:49:33,887 --> 00:49:35,472
Fringe trick. Fringe trick.
1090
00:49:35,555 --> 00:49:38,016
Here. Thank you.
Yeah, there you go. All fixed.
1091
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,561
Hello, everybody.
1092
00:49:41,645 --> 00:49:43,563
[cheering]
1093
00:49:43,647 --> 00:49:48,068
Thank you for coming
to this very special dinner of mine.
1094
00:49:48,151 --> 00:49:51,405
I wanna share with you
a little bit of how I dined
1095
00:49:51,488 --> 00:49:55,325
on a daily basis
growing up in a Vietnamese home.
1096
00:49:55,409 --> 00:49:58,787
I've had an incredible week
with my new friends right here.
1097
00:49:58,870 --> 00:49:59,705
Yeah.
1098
00:49:59,788 --> 00:50:04,960
And I've grown closer to myself
and to my mother who has passed,
1099
00:50:05,043 --> 00:50:07,129
and this dinner is a tribute to her.
1100
00:50:07,212 --> 00:50:09,589
And I feel like
I really channeled my mother
1101
00:50:09,673 --> 00:50:11,425
while I was cooking this food.
1102
00:50:11,508 --> 00:50:13,427
We're gonna eat
a little bit with our hands,
1103
00:50:13,510 --> 00:50:15,971
a little bit with our chopsticks,
a little bit with our spoons.
1104
00:50:16,054 --> 00:50:19,725
We're all family here tonight, okay?
I'll be out here with y'all.
1105
00:50:19,808 --> 00:50:21,685
-[Tan] Yeah!
-[Anh] Y'all enjoy.
1106
00:50:21,768 --> 00:50:23,854
-We love you!
-[Jonathan] Love you, Anh!
1107
00:50:24,479 --> 00:50:27,733
Anh is in control of this evening.
1108
00:50:27,816 --> 00:50:29,151
She is in her element,
1109
00:50:29,234 --> 00:50:32,279
and I just could not be
any prouder of her.
1110
00:50:32,362 --> 00:50:34,573
Oh my God! Ooh!
1111
00:50:36,616 --> 00:50:39,036
-Do you like these oysters? Great.
-[woman] Delicious.
1112
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:41,830
Thank you so much. Enjoy.
1113
00:50:41,913 --> 00:50:44,666
I want y'all to get your hands dirty
and shit, you know?
1114
00:50:44,750 --> 00:50:45,751
[laughs]
1115
00:50:46,501 --> 00:50:50,589
[Antoni] It's nice to kind of look back
and look at the food that shaped you,
1116
00:50:50,672 --> 00:50:52,799
look at the rituals
you had with your family.
1117
00:50:52,883 --> 00:50:56,178
And that's what Chef Anh does,
and she's gonna continue doing it.
1118
00:50:56,261 --> 00:50:57,888
She gets to share that with the world,
1119
00:50:57,971 --> 00:51:01,808
and what a wonderful gift she's providing
anyone who's lucky enough to try her food.
1120
00:51:02,559 --> 00:51:05,145
I love you guys.
I'm glad you got to come to this.
1121
00:51:05,228 --> 00:51:07,439
What do y'all think
of the Beyond Meat dish?
1122
00:51:07,522 --> 00:51:09,107
-[woman] I'm on my third bowl.
-[Anh] Wow.
1123
00:51:09,191 --> 00:51:11,401
-[man] It's great food!
-Thank you so much.
1124
00:51:11,485 --> 00:51:12,486
So good.
1125
00:51:12,569 --> 00:51:15,906
[Tan] Anh, when we first met her,
was kind of in a dark place.
1126
00:51:15,989 --> 00:51:18,200
She was still grieving the loss of her mom
1127
00:51:18,283 --> 00:51:21,536
and didn't know
quite how to process those feelings.
1128
00:51:21,620 --> 00:51:24,664
But this week,
I think she got the closure she needed,
1129
00:51:24,748 --> 00:51:27,042
and there's nothing holding her back now.
1130
00:51:27,125 --> 00:51:29,878
{\an8}We should do this, right?
We should do this all the time.
1131
00:51:29,961 --> 00:51:31,004
-[Nahum] Right.
-Yeah.
1132
00:51:31,088 --> 00:51:33,840
She's empowered,
and she knows that her voice matters.
1133
00:51:33,924 --> 00:51:36,468
And she's not gonna let anybody
treat her like it doesn't.
1134
00:51:37,052 --> 00:51:39,638
-[Tan] My love, thank you for everything.
-We love you, Anh.
1135
00:51:39,721 --> 00:51:40,555
[Anh] Bye!
1136
00:51:40,639 --> 00:51:43,850
I really thought I was gonna be stuck
in my mindset that I was in before this
1137
00:51:43,934 --> 00:51:45,102
for a long time.
1138
00:51:45,185 --> 00:51:49,064
And it feels really good
to know how to cope
1139
00:51:49,147 --> 00:51:52,984
and have the courage
to accommodate myself.
1140
00:51:53,068 --> 00:51:55,529
I feel like a new person.
1141
00:51:55,612 --> 00:51:56,905
-I love you.
-I love you too.
1142
00:51:56,988 --> 00:51:58,406
My gosh. Thank you so much.
1143
00:51:58,490 --> 00:52:00,867
We supported Anh. My belly is full.
1144
00:52:00,951 --> 00:52:03,537
But now it's time
for Anh to do this on her own.
1145
00:52:03,620 --> 00:52:04,538
She's got this.
1146
00:52:04,621 --> 00:52:06,373
-Bye, everyone!
-[Anh] See you next time!
1147
00:52:06,456 --> 00:52:08,208
Nice to meet you. That way?
1148
00:52:08,708 --> 00:52:09,668
-[Tan] Bye.

00:52:13,046 --> 00:52:14,297
[Anh] Shot o'clock!

[jazz music playing]
1152
00:52:20,887 --> 00:52:24,057
{\an8}Sage advice on some of my favorite herbs,
1153
00:52:24,141 --> 00:52:27,811
{\an8}starting with cilantro,
the most commonly used herb in the world
1154
00:52:27,894 --> 00:52:29,896
{\an8}and also the most polarizing.
1155
00:52:29,980 --> 00:52:33,191
{\an8}Rosemary. This is a hard herb
that needs a bit of cook time
1156
00:52:33,275 --> 00:52:35,861
{\an8}to really release that flavor
and soften up nicely.
1157
00:52:35,944 --> 00:52:38,697
{\an8}Mint. So much more than just a garnish
on a crème brûlée
1158
00:52:38,780 --> 00:52:40,365
{\an8}with a single little strawberry.
1159
00:52:40,448 --> 00:52:44,119
{\an8}Dill. Found in literally every jar
of anything that's ever been pickled.
1160
00:52:44,202 --> 00:52:48,165
{\an8}Parsley. Chop it up real nice and fine,
and it wakes up any single dish.
1161
00:52:48,248 --> 00:52:50,917
{\an8}And if your breath ain't so good,
have a leaf.
1162
00:52:52,752 --> 00:52:55,714
{\an8}I'd love to tell you more,
but, unfortunately, I'm out of "thyme."
1163
00:52:56,214 --> 00:52:57,299
{\an8}Wait, I'm not.
