A Menu of distinction

Our menu is as diverse and dynamic as Asia itself - and also large! Begin your journey with our classic small plates - Marinated Ribs, Crunch Pork Belly, the Sweet Chilli Wings or a Combination of all. From there explore our spicy salads and soups, our timeless rice and noodle dishes (Pad Thai anyone?) or go hotter with our Hot Jungle Curry With Fresh Basil (Red based curry cooked without coconut cream, with vegetables, lime leaves and fresh basil herb). The Vietnamese Seafood Boat (a mixture of fresh mussels, squid, fish and prawns in an Asian coconut broth, served with rice) is our signature dish, but you might also like the Vietnamese Fried Fish Fillet (Fresh fish fillets dipped in tempura batter and deep fried, placed on a hotplate with stir fried tomatoes, red onion, mushrooms and covered in a mild garlic, chilli and black pepper sauce).
