Celebrating Vietnamese culture and flavours, Madam Viet on Charman Road in Beaumaris also embraces the country’s French sophistication and style. Step into another world where black iron railings, whitewashed walls and a trendsetting black marble and yellow back lit bar, entice diners to take a seat under hanging oil lanterns and bask in a warm, glowing ambiance while perusing a modern menu with twists. Madam Viet keeps a watchful eye on proceedings from her wall mural as guests begin their taste journey with starters such as soft shell crab with tamarind sauce, or perhaps fried Peking duck dumplings with hoisin. Then salivate over a bowl of authentic aromatic beef pho, before delving into temptations like chilli lemongrass chicken with rice, or an eggplant, potato and snake bean curry.
