The Saigon Soul Food Story
I was eight years old when my family fled our home in Viet Nam for Canada. Every day in Saigon and then in Toronto, I cooked and learned from my mother in our kitchen.
​
My mother taught me to make spring rolls come alive with more fresh vegetables and legumes than most Vietnamese recipes. I also learned that wrapping with two or three layers of pastry makes a spring roll golden and flaky ... but also oily. To make my spring rolls light, and not oily, I carefully roll each one by hand with only one layer of pastry.
​
In 2003, a friend "volunteered" me to make my spring rolls as a lunch for my sons' Waldorf schoolmates and their parents. The overwhelming response from that lunch led me and my husband, Cameron David Topp, to launch our food business, Saigon Soul Food, at the Milton Farmers' Market.
​
It is from our commercial kitchen downtown Hamilton that I, and five Vietnamese-Canadian staff, make:
