The TUNG-in-cheek acronym – twisted, unique, natural, gastronomic – encapsulates the philosophy of Chef Hoang Tung’s culinary style. His tasting menu, which keeps pace with the seasons and uses local produce, boasts colourful, minimalist dishes, each of which features just 3 or 4 ingredients, whose complexity explodes with every bite.

Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

In keeping with its name, which means “hello, friend” in Vietnamese, Chào Bạn is welcoming and easy-going. In the kitchen, chef Madame Hang gives traditional Vietnamese recipes a new spin with creativity and aplomb. Her nem rán cua (crab spring rolls) deliver balanced flavours and contrasting textures. The đặc biệt section, which includes prawns in coconut cream, or lacquered pork ribs, is a treasure trove of her creative signature dishes.
