[2025 Hanoi Restaurant] Travel Guide for La Badiane (Updated Jul)

I went to Hanoi, Vietnam for business in May this year. I have always heard that French cuisine in Vietnam is very famous, so I asked a local to recommend this one 🤣 I ordered a 5-course set from his place, the 5 dishes were: Salmon gravlax with citrus & pink peppercorn, ginger red onion & beetroot, iodized dill Chantilly, sesame crust Marinated salmon with citrus and red pepper, ginger and red onion and beetroot, iodized arugula and sweet cream, sesame crisps Scallops & prawns ravioli, grilled chorizo ​​& ratatouille, lemon leaf peanut crumble, smoked paprika bisque emulsion Scallops and shrimp French wontons, grilled Spanish sausage and Provence stew, lemon leaf peanut soufflé, smoked chili emulsified concentrate Duck foie gras terrine, lychee & red fruit frangipane in Amaretto liquor, blackcurrant glaze & saffron emulsion Duck goose liver sauce with lychee and raspberry amaretto juice, blackcurrant and saffron sauce Lacquered five peppers Australian beef tenderloin, truffle oil pea risotto & mustard mushroom duxelle Black pepper Australian beef fillet with truffle oil green bean pasta and French mustard mushroom puree Thyme raspberry & strawberry crumble, violet lime sorbet Thyme Raspberry and Strawberry Soufflé, Lemon Sorbet The whole meal is a complete impact on the taste buds, you see each dish is very complex, you can see that French cuisine is very attention to the combination of ingredients and the plate is very exquisite. And the most surprising thing to me is that each bite with a different sauce taste will be very different, but all very match😳🤤 The first time to eat is going to eat very looking forward to what the next bite tastes, even The whole meal took two or three hours but I was still excited 🤣 If there is any reason that would drive me to visit Hanoi again, I think it must be its French restaurant🤤 If you have the chance, you must try it! !

While Hanoi isn’t known for snowy holidays, it still offers a surprisingly festive Christmas vibe — especially in the Old Quarter. If you’re in the city during December, two standout spots bring serious seasonal charm: 🎄 Ban Công Cafe Located in a restored French colonial building on Hàng Gai Street, Ban Công Cafe transforms into a cozy Christmas retreat each year. Expect fairy lights, wreaths, a decorated tree, and soft holiday tunes. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a hot egg coffee or cocoa while watching the city below from the twinkling balcony. 📍 2 Hàng Gai, Hoàn Kiếm 📸 Best time: Late afternoon into evening 🎶 Nhà Hát Lớn (Hanoi Opera House) Hanoi’s grand opera house gets a festive glow-up in December. The building and surrounding square are lit with elegant Christmas lights and decor, making it a great spot for photos or just a stroll. You might even catch a holiday concert inside for a cultural bonus. 📍 1 Tràng Tiền, Hoàn Kiếm 🎟️ Check listings for seasonal performances 🍽️ La Badiane: A Festive Feast in Style Looking for a refined spot to celebrate the season? La Badiane is one of Hanoi’s top fine-dining destinations, offering French cuisine with a Vietnamese twist — and it’s even featured in the Michelin Guide. Tucked in a colonial villa on Nam Ngu Street, it’s a perfect place for a special holiday dinner. With dishes like grilled red tuna in Thai spices or tenderloin with Gorgonzola and bacon, the food is elegant without being fussy. The setting is warm, the service top-tier, and during the holiday season, the ambiance is quietly festive. 📍 10 Nam Ngu, Hoàn Kiếm 📞 +84 24 3942 4509 🌐 Reservations recommended Bonus: For a more local (and very colorful) take on Christmas, head to Hàng Mã Street for decorations, lights, and quirky holiday finds. #localguides #festiveseason #historicallandmarks

Kumamon Friends Team May Vietnam Michelin Restaurant Food Tour The Kumamon department manager who graduated from Kumamoto University, brought Ju Zhicheng who was newly arrived at the Kumamon Birthday Festival in March this year, the food girls fatty+Puffy, KiwiBird Lavender, and Miyazaki dog Lemon, to travel to Hanoi, the capital of northern Vietnam, and Hoi An, Da Nang, in the central part of Vietnam during the Labor Day holiday in May. The theme of this trip is to eat all the restaurants in the 2024 Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant guide. Every meal is authentic snacks, and the itinerary is only secondary~ It coincides with the 50th anniversary of Vietnam's reunification. We are honored to celebrate the national commemorative festival with the Vietnamese people. There are so many people and the atmosphere is great! The first episode introduces Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. The minister and other children visited Hanoi in October 2023 and stayed for 4 days. They visited the city, cruised in Halong Bay, and visited the suburbs of Ninh Binh. The impression was that it was a city very similar to Guilin in China. The city atmosphere was leisurely and relaxed, and there were many unique delicacies in the north, including Obama barbecue rice noodles Bun Cha, a very famous French restaurant, duck dishes, etc. This was my second visit, and I reserved two days to take my kids to find the following delicacies. We also enjoyed Vietnamese hot stone massage, Vietnamese durian, beef river-flavored potato chips, and Vietnamese shampoo. This time, I was very happy to welcome new penguin friends from Miniso in Vietnam to join our big family. They are all very cute and well-behaved children. The Minister sincerely recommends Hanoi to friends who have been to Da Nang and Hoi An, saying that it is a peaceful, low-priced and beautiful city and countryside. October to March is the best time to visit the north, with pleasant temperatures and plenty of sunshine. Fortunately, it didn't rain in May this time, it was just hot. Michelin Bib Gourmand Restaurant Guide 2024 -Don Duck Old Quarter duck dishes: duck rice noodles, duck thighs, duck steaks, etc. Friends who like duck meat will definitely like it. The price is very reasonable and many foreign tourists patronize it~ -La Badiane French Cuisine: It is recommended to make reservations in advance on Facebook. The lunch set is more affordable and includes soup, appetizer, main course, dessert and a glass of red and white wine. There are many people, many tourists~ -Fabrik French Cuisine: A French restaurant that is rarely visited. The food is equally excellent and the price is half the price of the previous one. It is carefully prepared. I also chose the lunch set. The onion soup and Cream Brulee were of very high quality. I hope to come again if I have the chance.

Relaxing trip to Hanoi in October 2023 🥰 Before the trip to Aso, Kumamoto last November, the Minister took four cute kids and took time out to fly to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, for 4 days in October. Unfortunately, I was too busy at work to share my experience. The first stop was a very popular French restaurant in Hanoi's Old Quarter. I made a reservation in advance on Facebook. The lunch would be set manu, which cost about HK$200. I can't remember the food in the photo, but it is super high-end and excellent French food. It broke the minister's resistance to western food. I will definitely try this restaurant again next time I come. I may share some of my itinerary in Hanoi later. It is always a leisurely city. #Hanoi #Vietnam #North Vietnam #vietnam #hanoi #French food #Kumamon #Miyazaki dog #Foodie girl #Blue furry #food #Vietnam love more

The airlines were offering special airfares from Hong Kong to Hanoi, so it was the perfect place to go for a few days to recharge, eat, drink and get a massage. The prices were cheap and the food was delicious. Here are the places I visited during these three days: 📍La Badiane (Pictures 1-3) How can you not try French food when you come to Vietnam? This restaurant is recommended by Michelin and is just near our hotel. After arriving, we walked over for lunch. Eating French food in Vietnam is always cost-effective. The environment and decoration of this restaurant are also very beautiful. 10 P. Nam Ngư, Cửa Nam, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍 An Café (Picture 4) Hanoi’s specialty, egg coffee, is available in many cafés. This café will draw your image on the coffee, which is very cute! It is also very suitable for checking in. The barista came over and looked at us seriously for a while before writing. 15 P. Phủ Doãn, Hàng Trống, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội 100000, Vietnam 📍 Project Gyutan (Figure 5-8) It’s only been open for a few months, and the boss is very curious about how I found him 😂 This is the best and most cost-effective restaurant in the whole trip! Highly recommended 👍🏻 212-F2 169 P. Tha, Trung Liệt, Dong Da, Hà Nội 11513, Vietnam 📍 Cộng Cà Phê (Pictures 9-10) A famous coffee shop chain in Vietnam, with branches in major cities. The one I went to faced the St. Joseph Cathedral 27 P. Thanh, Hàng Trống, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍 Phở 10 Lý Quốc Sư (Photo 11) Right near the church is the famous Vietnamese beef pho, which is named because there are ten ways to cook the beef. 10 P. Lý Quốc Sư, Hàng Trống, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍 Cafe Giảng (Photo 12) This time-honored egg coffee opened in 1946 and is very flavorful. 39 P. Hữu Huân, Lý Thái Tổ, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍 Banh Mi Hoi An (Picture 13) This Vietnamese baguette is of moderate size, with crispy outside and soft inside, and tastes great with the fillings! 98 P. Hàng Bạc, Hàng Buồm, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍 Kim's birthday (Figure 14) Michelin recommends street food shops, bun cha is large and affordable and delicious 1 P. Hàng Mành, Hàng Gai, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam 📍GIA restaurant (Figure 15-18) The Michelin-starred restaurant mainly uses local seasonal ingredients, and the dishes are presented in a thoughtful way. The dessert will take you on a tour of the kitchen at the end. The price is a bit high and the taste is not very good, I think it is good enough to try it once. 61 P. Văn Miếu, Văn Miếu, Dong Da, Hà Nội 100000, Vietnam 📍Omamori Spa old quarter (Pictures 19-20) There are many massage shops in Vietnam. This blind massage shop does not accept tips. The master is very dedicated. I went there twice in 3 days. 48 Huyện, Hàng Trống, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam #Sign up for hotel test sleeper

I recently visited a French restaurant in Hanoi called La Badiane. The restaurant is renowned for its fine French cuisine and has a Michelin recommendation. That evening, I chose their 5-course Signature menu and had a wonderful dinner. Regarding the food, I can only describe it as "superb". Every dish is carefully prepared with fresh ingredients and tastes amazing. From appetizers to main courses to desserts, every bite exudes unique flavors and delicate textures. Especially their signature dishes which are simply unforgettable. The menu is excellent, with each dish having just the right amount of flavor and serving size. I especially like how they incorporate Vietnamese influences into their dishes, which adds a unique twist to French cuisine. The whole dining experience was very pleasant and I enjoyed a fine dinner in a comfortable environment. La Badiane is definitely worthy of the Michelin recommendation, their food and service are impeccable. The most important thing is that it is very cost-effective! It is basically impossible to eat French food in Hong Kong at this price. #Hanoi #French food #Overseas travel

We visited this restaurant as we wanted to try French dining cuisine. Tucked in a quiet corner in Hanoi Hoan Ki area. This place did not disappoint! Food was great. However, I was most impressed by the service at this restaurant which was simply outstanding. The waiters were so friendly and attentive to our needs. This place is worth visiting for the food and excellent service. Do note that there is a live band on Wednesdays and it totally elevates the entire ambience! Tried the degustation set menu and I would say it's absolutely lovely Lots of surprise flavours textures and superb presentation.
