EPICURE VIETNAM Magazine - Issue 05 - TIME TO CELEBRATE

In this issue

Here we are once more, at the end of yet another extraordinary and difficult year. A year of chaos and turbulence, of lock downs, roller-coaster daily uncertainty, of heartbreak and hope. Yet, despite our apprehension of what is yet to come, the festive season shall not stop us from creating memorable moments for our family and our friends and beloved ones. The charming magic and excitement of all the customary festivities ahead, the cool winter climate and the colors of the lights decorating our streets, feed us with hope and expectation. And it is that special kind of hope we all need when looking forward to 2022. Vietnam, especially its tourism and hospitality industry, has experienced a year of constant pain, of loss and separation. Its protagonists, and supporters like us, simply can't wait any longer for our country to wake up from its long paralysis. We are encouraged by the fact that many hotels and resorts have finally reopened their doors to welcome guests with attractive packages, hoping to attract more domestic tourists. Join us when we discover festive Christmas and New Year offers by restaurants, hotels, and resorts across our country. Hôtel des Arts Saigon, Park Hyatt Saigon, Mia Boutique Resort, and InterContinental Saigon are all offering magical moments and enchanting invitations to explore life at its best. Don’t also miss out on some of the newcomers in our Epicure Vietnam's Winter Edition - such as the rebooted Nomu Izakaya, or the new destination for brunch lovers, Square One at Park Hyatt. Or how about learning how to make the perfect roast, or creating your very own cocktail at home with the help some of our talented mixologist contributors. Whether you are tourist or a local resident, please allow Epicure Vietnam to be your personal culinary guide to the latest trendy bars, new restaurants, or simply some of the delicious recipes from our supportive Chefs. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
