Celebrating the food of Vietnam
Welcome to our restaurants. If you are
new to Vietnamese food, you will find a cuisine combining subtle,
delicate flavorings, fresh vegetables, rice and pasta with meats and
fish. Vietnamese is the lightest of all Asian foods and the lowest
in fat. A typical Vietnamese dish will combine fresh "salad style"
vegetables including Asian basil and mint, vermicelli, a small
portion of grilled meat or fish and a light, home made sauce. The
long Buddhist tradition of our country has fostered a highly evolved
vegetarian cuisine which we also offer to you. Our dishes are
ordinarily not prepared hot and spicy except upon request.
We are pleased to celebrate the foods
of the several regions of our country - the rich noodle soups which
originated around Hanoi in the north, fresh vegetables and seafood
from the central region, including our home town of Dalat, and the
river fish cuisine of the southern Mekong delta region
Our restaurants will offer a variety
of seasonal specials. Some will be traditional dishes from our rich
culinary heritage. Others will explore Vietnamese cuisine's
possibilities by embracing tastes and influences from other
cultures. This exploration is a timely reflection of a very exciting
period in Vietnam's history as it reopens to the world. The streets
and cafes of Saigon are now filled with travelers from every
continent. If you there is anything we can do to make your visit
more enjoyable, please do not hesitate to ask us
