In the previous restaurant, Liza recounts, Salima felt like she was operating in the dark as a recent immigrant, that she & her husband were alone, just them with everything on their shoulders. At Salima Specialties, the opposite is true. “Now, she has community on her side,” Liza says.

Liza estimates about half their business is Cham people. South tmec.edu.vn và King County have a large Cham population, & Liza describes the mobile trang chủ parks behind Skyway’s gas stations as “literally Cham villages.” Yet access to Cham cuisine has faded in the pandemic, says Liza. “A lot of our elders who have historically cooked và sold food out of their kitchens — that’s what we were raised on — those people have retired or passed on.” Salima Specialties, the reincarnation of her parents’ dream, hopes to bring it back. “Cham people can come here and feel proud,” Liza says. “You can recommend this restaurant; you can taste Cham food here.”

Asari Mohamath is one of the owners of Salima Specialties in Skyway Chona Kasinger/tmec.edu.vn tmec.edu.vn Liza was in elementary school when they had the first restaurant & fondly remembers her dad hand-delivering her lunches of chicken with rice & fish sauce. But if she said she was from Vietnam, classmates would ask why her family didn’t eat pork, why they wore headscarves, why she was different from everyone. It fed into Liza’s own struggle to lớn understand her identity and where they came from. But Salima’s cooking combatted those questions for Liza: the food her family ate, what they served in their restaurant và to their own community, represented her cultural wealth, as it had for generations. “Our family really values knowing the cuisine.”

It’s easy for people khổng lồ say that their food isn’t Cham because it’s Malaysian, or Vietnamese, Liza observes, but she shuts that criticism down. “I’m really passionate about reclaiming what our culture means,” says Liza. “It’s Cham because we made it.”
