b"When Christine Ha opened up her restaurant in Houston, she didn't want to compete over authenticity with first generation Vietnamese mom-and-pop shops. So, Christine went for her own unique twist of Vietnamese heritage and Texas upbringing for her establishments. Her first venture, The Blind Goat, combined whimsical ambience with modern takes on Vietnamese street foods like B\\xe1nh Tr\\xe1ng N\\u01b0\\u1edbng (grilled rice paper pizza). Her follow up effort with Xin Ch\\xe0o exposed crowds to more fun fusions like Texas barbecued G\\u1ecfi V\\u1ecbt (duck salad) with a traditional ginger fish sauce vinaigrette. Christine shares more about her restauranteuring and how sight loss has impacted her cooking."
