About Chefs Hao and Dixya
The Dallas Observer summed it up best…
Hao & Dixya is a partnership between Hao Tran and Dixya Bhattarai. Frustrated with the lack of dumpling places in Fort Worth, Tran and Bhattarai started doing pop-ups around Fort Worth. Now, in addition to pop-ups, they offer cooking classes and catering.
Tran grew up in the Vietnamese community in South Arlington. A teacher by profession, she was raised in the kitchen and learned to cook from her parents, who are Vietnamese immigrants.
Bhattarai, a registered dietitian who works full time at a hospital, is from Nepal and moved to the United States 10 years ago for college. She started the blog Food, Pleasure and Health when doing her dietetic internship to document what she learned, as well as share recipes.
