Linda Sivrican Is Uniting LA's Elderly Asian Community With Food
HuffPost
Her neighborhood business will serve food made in-house daily by Asian elders, including her own mother.
Linda Sivrican is the owner of Sesame, a thoughtfully curated Los Angeles neighborhood superette (or small supermarket) in the heart of Chinatown that sells Asian specialty products from various Asian-owned brands. She’ll soon be opening an eatery in nearby Long Beach called Sesame Dinette that serves Vietnamese and Pan-Asian dishes that are mostly vegan and vegetarian, made in-house daily by Asian elders, including Sivrican’s own mother. A proud Vietnamese American, Sivrican is also a professional perfumer and the founder of Capsule Parfumerie. In this edition of Voices in Food, Sivrican explains the inspiration behind working with Asian elders and how it unites a community that’s been experiencing an uptick in hate crimes.
