Not simply a restaurant serving Vietnamese dishes, Di Mai also conveys traditional cultural values in every item to every corner of the space. And these traditional values of the East Asian style are further preserved and sublimated through the dishes on the restaurant's new menu launched on November 6, 2018, promising to bring diners the experience of classy meals of the upper class of Saigon in the 1960s.

Being the cradle of the long-standing rice civilization, Vietnamese cuisine always emphasizes dishes made from rice or sticky rice, which are low in fat and always pay attention to the harmony when combining ingredients and spices together to create a balance between sour - spicy - salty - sweet. Therefore, to meet the strict requirements of pure Vietnamese cuisine in the new menu, the experts and top chefs of Di Mai Restaurant had to spend several months searching for the perfect ingredients, exploring creative recipes from three regions to enhance the taste of the dishes but still not lose the original flavor, rich in the countryside flavor of pure traditional cuisine.
