Mahjong Bar hosts a one-night-only dinner featuring a five-course tasting menu from Chef Phil Nguyen, rooted in Vietnamese tradition and executed with contemporary culinary technique.
The experience offers a fresh perspective on iconic regional classics—ranging from a crisp bánh mì tuile to slow-braised bún bò Huế—striking a balance between bright, herbaceous notes and deep, rich comforting flavors. To complement Chef Nguyen’s menu, the bar team has curated a lineup of feature cocktails designed to complement the dishes. Your choice of one cocktail is included with your ticket, with additional cocktail course pairings available to order à la carte throughout the experience.
