lucky chow

Deep in the heart of Texas, Houston is an unexpectedly rich melting pot of Asian and American cuisine. We'll meet three brothers who put Asian fire into Texas barbecue; a chef who gives the traditional Gulf crawfish boil a spicy, wok-fried Vietnamese twist; and a pho master who is helping to turn the traditional broth into America's new comfort soup.

Duration: 26 minutes and 46 seconds

Episode Number: 601
