French Culinary Experience – A Creative Inspiration For The F&B Industry

Vietnam’s F&B industry is constantly evolving – not just in food quality but also in how culinary experiences are delivered. Beyond taste, today’s diners care more about ingredient stories, product origin, sustainability, and the creativity behind each dish. In this rising trend, French cuisine – known globally for its refinement, precision, and respect for ingredients – has become a powerful source of inspiration for many chefs and restaurants in Vietnam.

To bridge the gap between premium French ingredients and professionals, partners, and clients in the F&B sector, New Viet Dairy, in collaboration with renowned French dairy brand Paysan Breton, hosted the Appreciation Dinner event in Ho Chi Minh City. This was not only a networking opportunity but also a chance for guests to fully immerse themselves in modern French gastronomy – an approach that is approachable, practical, and increasingly compatible with Vietnamese tastes and dining culture.

A highlight of the evening was the menu curated by Chef Sakal Phoeung – a seasoned Asian-born chef with a solid background in French fine dining techniques and culinary philosophy. With a modern mindset and deep understanding of ingredients, Chef Sakal created a series of dishes blending French culinary techniques with Asian flavors.

Key products from Paysan Breton featured in the event included:

Whipping Cream

Raclette Cheese

Traditional French Salted Butter

Each dish not only highlighted the authentic taste of French ingredients but also showcased their versatility – from classic European applications to modern, locally adapted recipes. This diversity opens new creative directions for menu development across various restaurant and F&B business models in Vietnam.

Beyond ingredient quality, the brand representative from Paysan Breton also shared their sustainability philosophy – from the renowned Brittany sourcing region and transparent production processes to their commitment to supporting the global chef community. These values align with the direction Vietnam’s F&B industry is heading, especially as consumers become more conscious of the “delicious and wholesome” aspect.
