Sara Nguyen has taken her high heels to Long Island since her defenestration from Top Chef 3 to gather her wits and knives before she joins ex–Top Chef Joey at Café des Artistes. Now that she’s off the show she can let the claws out about Howie’s low blows, women chefs holding their own, and how doling out meals from a catering truck to drunk fools is best when one has not just drunk a whole bottle of wine oneself.

Sara pronounces her name "win", not that hard.
an interviewer shouldn't try to go for the Vietnamese pronunciation if she can't pull it off. Nguyen is a very common name and has an English pronunciation: win.

About this name business--I had a girl in my class whose name was spelled the same way, and she asked the prof to say it just like the interviewer did-- "Nwen".
Boo2, do you know Sara, and do you know she doesn't pronounce her name that way? Or do you just enjoy trying to find fault with everything so much that you assume the interviewer would skip such a basic step as asking Sara how she pronounces her name? I'm pretty sure I can guess the answer.
maybe the interviewer could learn how to pronounce the last name of the person she's interviewing before they start recording. seems like a basic thing to me. it bugs me that the quality of these interviews have gone down since last season.
