Tet. It’s that time of year when the Lunar calendar pushes aside the Gregorian calendar and brings about a celebration of fresh flowers, tropical fruits, colorful trinkets, lion dances, and a plethora of food and fortune greetings to mark the occasion.
We’re in the Tet spirit, a nostalgic taste of the homeland.
In Little Saigon, the largest concentration of Vietnamese living overseas, it’s clear the celebration has arrived, evidenced by the traffic jams and search for parking spots for people going to the once-a-year flower market at the Asian Garden Mall.
These are the festivities scheduled in and around Little Saigon for Tet 2019, the Year of the Pig, meaning the year of wealth and fortune.
