On March 19, The Gourmet Affair, hosted by New Viet Dairy exclusively for HORECA partners and F&B businesses in Central Vietnam, concluded on a high note, delivering inspiration and memorable experiences.

Culinary highlights through live cooking showcases

As a key highlight of the event, live cooking showcases by two experienced chefs captured strong interest from attendees, offering a vivid demonstration of creativity and technique.

• Slow Sous-Vide Australian Black Angus OP Ribs with Raclette: Chef Nguyen Van Tu – Iron Chef Vietnam applied slow-cooking techniques to preserve the tenderness and rich flavor of the beef, paired with melted Raclette cheese to create a well-balanced and indulgent dish.

• Aburi Coho Salmon “Saku” Tataki: Under the interpretation of Chef Nghiem Minh Duc – New Viet Dairy Gastronomy Consultant, the salmon was lightly seared to retain its natural richness, complemented by the gentle acidity of passion fruit and the subtle warmth of ginger, resulting in a refined and distinctive flavor profile.

Through these live-prepared dishes, attendees were able to clearly experience the quality of the ingredients while gaining inspiration for practical menu applications within their businesses.

Expanding ingredient choices, enabling flexible operations

Following the cooking showcases, the product display area offered a more comprehensive view of New Viet Dairy’s ingredient portfolio.

Alongside well-established core product lines, the event also introduced a range of newly imported products tailored to the evolving needs of the Central Vietnam market. This provided businesses with greater opportunities to explore and select solutions that best fit their operational models.

• Meat

The meat category featured premium selections including Wagyu từ 1855 Black Angus và Kagoshima beef – well-recognized choices in steakhouse and fine dining concepts.

Wagyu products stand out for their high level of consistency, well-defined marbling, and rich flavor, delivering a tender and juicy texture. In addition, stable pricing across periods and standardized cutting and packaging help minimize weight variations between portions.

This allows businesses to better manage portion control, optimize ingredient costs, and maintain consistent dish quality throughout service.

• Seafood

The seafood selection showcased a diverse range of new offerings, from Goosepoint oysters (USA), Amacore black cod (Netherlands), to whole Kildare lobster (Canada), suitable for a wide variety of culinary styles from Asian to Western cuisine.

Coho salmon also remained a highlight, with its natural red color, firm texture, and balanced richness—ideal for multiple preparations, from sashimi to modern fusion-style grilled dishes.

• Dairy & Groceries

With a comprehensive ecosystem ranging from rich-flavored Paysan Breton cheese and buttery Bottega Zelachi puff pastry to authentic Heinz tomato paste and smooth dairy cream products, New Viet Dairy provides essential building blocks for both flavor and texture.

• Beverages

The beverage area attracted significant attention through live demonstrations by baristas. Notable highlights included fruit tea creations using Twinings tea combined with natural juices, offering a light and refreshing taste—ideal as welcome drinks or cooling options in restaurant and hotel settings.

Alongside imported wines and a diverse range of juices, the combination of Oatly oat milk and Zhejiang matcha stood out as a key highlight, representing the growing plant-based beverage trend. This pairing not only delivers a balanced and approachable flavor but also provides HORECA businesses with flexible menu options to meet evolving consumer preferences.

Across all categories, the products not only ensure consistent quality but also emphasize practical application, enabling chefs and operators to better control ingredients, reduce waste, and maintain consistency in every dish.
