From the outset, the connection is evident. Chef Le’s passion for local produce shines through as she speaks about her own farm, where she grows ingredients that reflect the vibrant flavours of Vietnamese cuisine.
Joining forces with Minh Long, a prestigious Vietnamese porcelain brand established in 1970, they create something spectacular that showcases Vietnam's finest in both handcraft and culinary excellence. Minh Long’s CEO, Ly Huy Sang, is not only the mastermind behind the brand but also plays a crucial role in designing and crafting plateware that aligns with the chef’s culinary philosophy.
