T.U.N.G Dining, a Nordic fine dining restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, and one of only two restaurants in Vietnam included in last year’s Asia’s top 50 Best (51-100) list is welcoming a new addition this summer and it’s not what you think.

Boasting first-rate modern French fare by Executive Chef Benjamin Morelle, who cut his teeth in the kitchens of Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris, Etesia is the latest lovechild of the F&B masterminds behind Polite&Co, one of Hanoi’s original cocktail bars.

Helmed by hospitality titan duo Long Tran and Sam Tran, this new addition to Vietnam’s culinary scene features a Vietnamese-accented menu combined with skilful culinary technique and finesse.

Located in the heart of the city, Labri is helmed by Chef Joon Hyuk who cut his teeth in the kitchen of Michelin-starred restaurant Abysse - a Michelin one-star restaurant located in Minami Aoyama, Tokyo.
