Mai Fish

This is one of a group of restaurants that is owned and run by a local man by the name of Duc Nguyen, a man I like to refer to as the “most interesting man in the world.” Born in Vietnam, Duc then left as a refugee at a young age and spent much of his youth in Texas. Afterward, he traveled throughout Europe as a chef before finally coming back to his native country. He was so inspired by the culture and cuisine that he decided to open up his restaurants in the town of Hoi An. Mango Mango and Mango Rooms are the more refined of his restaurants while Mai Fish is inspired by his mothers home cooking. All utilize local, fresh products and are located in the old town of Hoi An.
