皇家酒店 - 东朱HN - by BAY LUXURY

Reimagined by chef-owner Hieu Trung Tran in 2022, Lamai Garden serves a seasonal tasting menu and vegetarian menu in line with a contemporary Vietnamese farm-to-table concept. Diners pass through a garden to the dining area with counter seating by the open kitchen. They use ingredients from their Phú Thọ farm – garden herbs, ducks and black pigs. The squid "noodle", inspired by phở chua, highlights the chef's creativity. Only open for dinner; reservations are a must.

The chef crafts delectable bánh cuốn, Vietnamese steamed rolls with minced pork and black fungus. She also serves an option with a soft poached egg. Order the pork meatloaf and sausage, and season with fresh herbs, chilli, lime or garlic at will for a great breakfast or snack.

Said to be the birthplace of phở cuốn in 2000, this spot remains a favourite. Soft rice noodle rolls filled with beef, vegetables and herbs pair perfectly with a sweet-sour dip. The crispy noodle crust of the deep-fried phở with beef gravy creates an irresistible contrast.

This cheerful stall, now located just across from its old spot, is a local favourite for chicken noodles soup, serving a wide range of phố, bún and miến. Diners can choose from chicken offal toppings, and dark or white meat. The clean, cosy space has large windows, and the classic yellow wall adds to the street vibe.

Embark on a culinary journey around the world with the freshest ingredients from the northern and southern hemispheres, as well as the east and the west. Tailor your itinerary across the continent, possibly with house-marinated Atlantic salmon from the north-west, or grilled New Zealand rack of lamb from the south-east. A fine selection of world-class premium beef steaks, complemented by assorted seafood, creates an appealing “surf and turf” feast. The views over West Lake offer a slice of tranquillity amidst the urban turmoil.

The phở gà at this small stall might be more expensive than the average, but the chicken is premium quality and the natural chicken flavour of the soup base is impeccably seasoned. Choose from white or dark meat, or a mixture of both, and add chilli sauce, garlic, lime and chilli to taste. Arrive early to ensure the best selection of chicken cuts. This stall, perfect for an authentic breakfast experience in Hanoi, is open until 2:00pm.
