I first encountered Sriracha sauce in a little Cambodian Restaurant in Revere MA, across the street from the Jewish Community Center where I conducted the Senior Citizens Choir.

After rehearsal, I would go across the street, point to a picture of something on the Khmer Language Menu, and have an adventurous lunch. There was a bottle of Sriracha on every table, and I fell in love with the stuff.

Now, all the La-di-da restaurants invent appetizers that use the sauce, and it is all the rage in “Haute cuisine”.

And I knew what it was long before everyone else caught on.

A new Vietnamese restaurant, Bolsa, opened in Mira Mesa (northern San Diego community) around 1985. The pho offered there was outstanding. There was Sri Racha sauce on each table. It has been in my pantry for over 35 years. My wife prefers the sweet chili sauce. All good stuff. If only the rice noodles and salty broth didn't pack the lbs on me, it would be consumed more often.
