Next, we head to a local eatery for the main course, where you’ll have the opportunity to savour authentic Southern Vietnamese dishes. Options include the famous Bánh Xèo, a crispy pancake filled with shrimp, pork, and bean sprouts, served with fresh herbs and dipping sauce. Alternatively, you can try wraps and rolls made with rice paper, fresh vegetables, and grilled meats, or opt for a hearty plate of broken rice with grilled pork chop, a classic comfort food cherished by locals. Each dish tells a storey of Saigon’s culinary heritage and offers a unique taste of the region’s flavours. As the evening unfolds, we treat you to a quintessential Saigon dessert: grilled banana wrapped in sticky rice. This delightful treat is elevated with a drizzle of creamy, homemade coconut milk, creating a sweet and satisfying finale to the meal. The flavours are simple yet rich, embodying the comfort and warmth of Vietnamese desserts.

The cosy ambiance and distinctive flavours make it a perfect spot to unwind and reflect on the evening’s adventures. Whether you prefer hoppy ales, fruity sours, or rich stouts, there’s something to please every palate.
