- George Azar is a Southwest Detroit native - born to Palestinian parents - who upon moving back to the Motor City after working in fine dining restaurants around the country noticed a serious underrepresentation of his favorite cuisine. So Flowers of Vietnam was born.

"Every single culture recognizes a gesture of hospitality" - that's downright profound. Nice work Chef, and you too Eater.
This video is pretty incredible. Real talk and good food. Glad someone is FINALLY doing it. Thank you Eater for not going soft in Detroit and telling a real story.
Detroit and Vietnamese food both have a special place in my heart. Thank you Eater for giving a voice to both through George Azar. I will definitely pay a visit to Flowers of Vietnam on my next stop in Detroit.
I hope he develops some Palestinian Vietnamese fusion because that sounds unbelievably beautiful
chuchuchuchia amen to that
I wanna eat that’s
This was an amazing piece, great content, lighting, sound and editing. It deserves a follow-up once the restaurant is built out for sure. Peace.
Maybe some Detroit ganster's member
I have never been to Detroit so this is intriguing. So sad what happened to the city. Hope it continues to rebuild.
Please come! Now is the time to come. Detroit is really picking up momentum. So many places to visit definitely a worthwhile experience
RMK yes. I would like to go. What is the best thing to see in Detroit besides the Institute of Art?
wat happened to detroit?
Urban decay and bankruptcy
Obviously feels like the final episode of the Detroit series. Well done. Looking forward to Sheldon's next city.
Such love for one's city. And he is keeping it real and talking straight. A brave man.
I absolutely loved this story. Thank you.
I just love this program! !
I miss my hometown! Good job George I'd love to meet you one day!
Damn that food looks legit, that chef's got skills.
The food IS legit. I am a Detroiter and was fortunate enough to eat there today. It was amazing!
That set they're eating at is a crazy great idea. Very on-theme. Great episode.
what kind of sad miserable ppl downvote this?
People who don’t like the food
Zionist devils
Israelis
Damn this looks really good! I’m happy people are giving Vietnamese a modern twist
The food looks magnificent!
So exciting! Im in SW Detroit often! Can't wait to visit! I think they open this Friday
Great show, great host. Thanks Sheldon
Nice twist, got to give him props for trying. The raw beef is technically cooked in lime juice, and drizzle with garlic infused oil and eaten with shrimp paste sauce.
This is what makes America great
It would be nice if you posted in the description where this place is and a link.
Nice, he incorporated Sous Vide cooking too! Very creative take on Vietnamese food!
Where in detroit is this restaurant? An are there any other spots near that can be purchased for a restaurant?
Moreno mundo southwest detroit....mexicantown...good call for the area....
Detroit....needs a little variety in that area..being thatvitcis all mexican restaurants..in Southwes Detroit...plus a taco food truck on every cornor...it kind of burned me out...still like Mexican Villagevand Armandos...El Ranchos..sucks... owner's...i would definitely take a trip east on vernor..to try..
Is that an actual restaurant or did they just set that up for the video?
That OneGuy real deal....i like his positive attitude...
It's in the process of being finished. They said it
Please don't rush your projects, it is very apparent that you recorded your voice lines in a crowded space and with a low quality mic.
None of your subscribers will be mad if they have to wait a little longer on a video. So please hold that standard, not only for us but for these amazing chefs
A great man.
Dude, you have no walls!! lol
Very interesting and delicious
Terrible to hear of the Palestinian refugee crisis; that is the flood of refugees from Detroit fleeing to Palestine for a better life.
Wrong, it would actually be referred as the "Detroitian refugee crisis".
Pretty neat. -Viet guy
I have been trying all day to find some rentals out there can anyone help me im looking for a place to open a restaurant
People don't change than it won't work.
This guy makes Bourdain look like a shmuck, and accurately so. Real talk from a real chef.
My guys wearing tights and boots
On me I thought unc was lying 💀
Very southern Vietnamese flavour
That set is dope. But kind'a gives you that hipster vibe.
His parents may have been Palestinian, but he's American.
iloverendering so american he went out and became a chef of Vietnam food
Which still makes him Palestinian. I'm sure he has a good mix of cultures
I totally agree. I think that's the beauty of America. I love this Eater series. Food makes such a great vehicle to showcase the melting pot.
An anchor baby
When I saw Palestinian Master Chef I was thinking I was about to see some food of the region, but it's Vietnamese. So there is zero reason to mention he's Palestinian, other than the fact you wanted people to click, him being Palestinian has nothing to do with what he's cooking. And 'helping unite Detroit' ? Kinda invoking the Palestinian - Israeli crisis and again it has nothing to do with this video.
shmaveyea To me you seem to be the only one invoking the Palestinian-Israeli crisis. I believe there is a significance in a non-Vietnamese cook making Vietnamese food, and also significant that it is another minority in the US making it. It is sad to me that he can't be Palestinian and seek unity without someone feeling there is some sort of ulterior motive. But I guess being a person of color in America is synonymous with being political to many people.
Boy what the fuck, sit down and shut up. It’s just a RUclips video about making food.
Why are you triggered you would have been bawling your eyes if he was a zionist "israili" and they didn't mention it.
His Palestinian roots have nothing to do with this video, his influencer or his food. Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe youre naive to think a content creator wouldn't try to be click-baity
Did anyone else read “Palestinian Master Chief”?
Any Good bbq in that area?
“ Taqueria El Rey” has good bbq chicken,grilled chicken and tacos slap
Yay Vietnamese food!!!!😂
Now that cooking
There are some angry zionists in the comments
I like this channel so much I subscribed 3 times I think I am unsubscribed now !
this is coming from the area where your congresswomen is very divisive and unpatriotic....thats coming from an independent.........we have a long way to go
Palestinianamese
I am not sure what and why Palestine was needed here. "Chef using food to help unite city." His ancestry doesn't add anything to the story, but for some reason someone decided to make a point out of it.
because he is Palestinian and American.
Is it about need?
First
Lies bitch
Phat Boi jk😂😂😂
Palestian cooking pork?
Please don't turn this into a sectarian issue. There's more than one religion in the West Bank and that greater region of the world, along with people who don't believe in any (guess where Christianity came from).
being middle eastern doesnt automatically make you muslim smh
Thanks Neurosis/Haso.
mt nguyen just because he’s of Palestinian descent doesn’t mean he’s Muslim
There are many Palestinian Christians. Being Palestinian is not a religion, we have the same blood as our Muslim brothers and sisters.
Since there is no such place as "Palestine", I vote Detroit it's capitol
Well said. Though the true home of 'Pallywood' should be LA surely?
There is no place as Israel. U cant rewrite history
2000 years since king david oh ya its also in a book called the "bible"
@@jansteam weird that Israel ceased to exist after Romans and the Bible says that the Earth is flat
Not tryna ruin the mood in the comments, but what type of Palestinian serves pork. I kind of expected it tbh, Gigi hadid Do Khaled this guy I don't think they've to a mosque in thier lives.
The Christian type of Palestinians? First thing they say in the video is that his name is George.
It would have been better to really reflect on whether your comment was useful before posting something so judgemental. (because even if he was not Christian, what does it matter if a Palestinian decides to change religions or keep his but still eat pork?)
Lit
Where is palestine? I only know Israel.
Mike Richline stfu srsly cant people like you ever stfu
That was never existed shithole
Even in a video about food , there is one butthurt idiot
There is no country named Palestine....
Did they say it was a country? You can still be 'Palestinian'
pesticide for zionists plz
fax
I think you are confusing Palestine with Isn'treal
the food isnt fake, actually israel food.
@@eesaalikhan3099 israeli food is polish and russian food.
But palastine was never a country. Is it really that hard?
It must be because you can't type and/or spell
