Détour - the flavors of Southern France in Saigon

On September 30th, Détour restaurant officially opened after more than a month of trial operation. Infused with the flavors of Southern France's cuisine and the vibrant summer atmosphere, Détour offers diners a rich culinary experience with a carefully selected menu and a wide selection of exquisite cocktails, all within a uniquely stylish setting.

Inspired by "a trip to the sun-drenched South of France" with its bright summer colors and gentle sunshine, Détour promises to help diners escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

“The dishes at the restaurant don’t strictly adhere to French cuisine, but they still incorporate French ingredients and variations. By prioritizing local ingredients, diners can find similarities between the dishes here and Vietnamese cuisine. We hope that in the future, this will become a truly authentic French restaurant in Saigon,” said Alex Halbers, one of the two founders of the restaurant.
