Tony Vu is a first-generation Vietnamese-American chef from Flint, MI. After a long stretch of traveling around the world, he returned to Michigan as a passionate advocate of food and its universal ability to transcend cultural differences. From Mom's cooking to running with street vendors and chef mentors in Southeast Asia, his life experiences are reflected in each dish he serves. This journey has led him to open Wraps n Rolls food truck, MaMang Vietnamese Noodle Bar, and now The Good Bowl.
