The Story

At BẾP, we honour Vietnamese street food’s bold spirit — where sizzling pans, bursts of herbs, and unapologetic flavour rule the scene. While the yin-yang balance is still at the heart of our dishes, BẾP is where tradition gets a modern twist. We play with contrasts: hot and cool, crispy and soft, sweet and umami — all in one bite. It’s the kind of food that’s best enjoyed with hands, laughter, and good company. Inspired by the vibrant energy of Vietnam’s roadside kitchens, our menu is an ode to the chaos that somehow always makes perfect sense — fresh, fast, flavour-packed, and full of soul. This is not just a meal — it’s a mini escape to the streets of Saigon, right here in Kalamaja.

Where Tradition Meets a New Flame At BẾP, the kitchen (“bếp” in Vietnamese) is the beating heart of every meal — a place where fire meets flavour, and where tradition dances with creativity. Opened in 2025 in the vibrant Kalamaja district, BẾP is our second home, built from the success and soul of Pho Bar, but with its own bold spirit. Here, we explore a more playful and contemporary side of Vietnamese cuisine — from crispy sizzling bánh xèo to colourful summer rolls, and unexpected flavour combinations that surprise even the most seasoned palates. While Pho Bar is where our family traditions simmer, BẾP is where we experiment, innovate, and celebrate Vietnamese street food culture in a modern setting. Our menu is lively, our design bold, and our energy unmistakably urban. Yet, behind each dish lies the same deep respect for quality, authenticity, and connection. Our team — chefs from Vietnam and service staff from around the world — share one goal: to make your visit unforgettable. Whether you’re here for a light lunch or a long dinner with friends, we want you to feel the warmth, the curiosity, and the joy that define Vietnamese hospitality. From our bếp to your table — Welcome to something excitingly different.
