COASTAL INDULGENCE

Vietnam Golf Coast’s dining options expand the region’s attraction beyond golf.

- 

The region around Danang in central Vietnam is growing into one of the best golf destinations in Asia. With well-regarded and highly rated courses like Hoiana Shores, Ba Na Hills, BRG Da Nang, and many more, quality is reaching a zenith in this part of the country.

But there is much more than excellent golf in this picturesque part of the Vietnam Golf Coast, the marketing moniker for the Da Nang area. The city has long been an ambassador for Central Vietnamese cuisine thanks to its rich variety of dishes. In addition to iconic Vietnamese dishes like pho and banh mi, visitors can sample regional specialities like mi Quang (turmeric rice noodles with shrimp and pork), bun cha ca (fishcake noodle soup), banh xeo (Vietnamese savoury crepe) and street-side congee (rice porridge) with braised duck. Seafood restaurants serving fresh, locally sourced catches are also a standout feature. And within the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage town of Hoi An, just half an hour away, many more restaurants can be found.

The region’s gastronomic reputation was further burnished in 2024 with the inclusion of Da Nang as one of Vietnam's three MICHELIN Guide destinations. With MICHELIN inspectors now assessing the city’s diverse dining scene, Da Nang joins Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City as a recognized gourmet hub.
