Sending you a friendly smile

my head is going to explode
Bee - I'm so emo tonight. Super conflicted and cranky. My head hurts and my eyes swell. The truth behind "The Secret Kitchen"
The Secret Kitchen is a fascinating element of Helene An's culinary legacy and the An Family success story. The Secret Kitchen is a completely enclosed kitchen within the main kitchen, off limits to all employees except An Family members. Here, Chef Helene and the Ans prepare their secret family recipes: An's Famous Roasted Crab and Garlic Noodles. These dishes are the key to the restaurants' success.
As explained by Helene, "We left Vietnam with nothing. I had neither property nor personal wealth to pass along to my girls. When I realized that my restaurant was going to succeed, thanks to my family's recipes, I knew that I must protect their integrity." In much the same way that Coca-Cola® company stowed their recipes for Coke® in a vault, the An Family Secret Kitchen was created. In short, her culinary legacy is her daughter's inheritance.
A Secret Kitchen exists in all An Family restaurants, and that is why the guessing game continues. What makes the An's Famous Roasted Crab so unique? The answers are in the Secret Kitchen.
