Chef Giang Ngọc Tú
The journey of artisan chef Giang Ngọc Tú is not merely about learning and cooking, but about preserving the taste memories of a bygone time — from the way ingredients are selected, to the techniques of preparation, and the cultural context behind each dish. Her approach to cuisine is defined by meticulous care, refinement, and a profound respect for origin — qualities that have earned her high regard from culinary experts, fellow artisans, and discerning diners.
Within the setting of the ancestral residence-inspired dining space, she is a storyteller of flavors — not through nostalgia, but through the gentle evocation of familiar emotion: warm family meals, graceful rituals, and the quiet elegance of Northern Vietnamese cuisine. The “Phủ Đệ Dinner Menu” is her signature expression — a harmonious dialogue between tradition and contemporary sensibility, where every dish carries a narrative, a setting, and cultural depth.

Vườn nhà phủ đệ
(Garden of the noble estate)
A familiar Vietnamese traditional meal, yet never ordinary: free-range chicken, pond-raised fish, and vegetables gathered from the garden – each ingredient chosen with care and prepared with the quiet refinement of a noble estate kitchen. Gentle and close to heart, yet every flavor is elevated, so that in each bite one may feel a sense of fullness, peace, and depth.
Mâm cao cỗ đầy
(The Abundant Noble Table)
A generous table in the old household tradition: each dish served full in flavor and full in sentiment, as a gesture of respect for honored guests. Nothing ostentatious – only a quiet, measured abundance, beauty in balance – so that every taste carries a sense of refinement and grace.
Sơn hào hải vị
(Mountain & Sea Delicacies)
The most refined expression of the noble estate’s cuisine: select treasures from mountain and sea, prepared with meticulous craft and presented with quiet elegance. Not a display of luxury, but a continuation of a cultivated tradition – where each dish is a distillation of skill, ingredient, and the pride of Vietnamese gastronomy.

A festive event at Bến Thời Gian, where the noble-house space is opened to welcome guests into a banquet where ritual, cuisine, and performance art come together as one.
