Michelin Guide 2025 Welcomes New California Restaurants From LA, SF, and San Diego
The Michelin Guide recently announced 13 additions to its 2025 California Guide, highlighting culinary talent across the state. One of the restaurants on the list, Pho Momma, located in an unassuming strip mall in Sacramento, was recognized for its exceptional food and warm customer service. 'My location is in an old neighborhood, with no other nice businesses around. So when the customers come in, we try to make them forget where they're at, and give them a wonderful dining experience, and a nice clean atmosphere,' owner My Le, who also cooks and serves the fresh Vietnamese dishes, told The Epoch Times on May 20. The restaurant serves refreshments such as iced Vietnamese coffee, iced milk tea, and sweet tea. In addition, the restaurant offers a variety of traditional dishes, starting with fresh spring rolls, fried appetizers, as well as entrees of meat and tofu pho and 'Momma's Specials,' such as garlic noodles, chicken wings, and curry beef stew with rice.
