Teatro, City Centre Rotana Doha’s specialty signature restaurant, in partnership with Emirates Airline will host a Vietnamese Food Week featuring award winning Iron Chef Michael Bao Huynh from March 26 until April 2.

The week-long event will be presided by the Vietnamese Embassy in Qatar, and Nguyen Hoang, Ambassador Extraordinary of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

In collaboration with the Teatro chefs, chef Michael Bao will develop and serve a special a la carte menu throughout the week, featuring his unique take on Vietnamese cuisine. Some of the creations on the menu will include Black Cod en Papillote, BBQ Shrimp Salad and the very exotic Crab Cakes with lychee, strawberry and tamarind dressing. There will also be special not-to-be-missed events including a Vietnamese Cooking Class, a five-course a la carte dinner and a special Ladies Dinner evening.  

“It is a real pleasure for us to host chef Michael Bao at Teatro, and a privilege indeed to be collaborating with such esteemed partners in such venture”, said Martin Kendall, general manager of City Centre Rotana Doha. “It not only makes for an incredible culinary experience for our guests, but it is also a great opportunity for a unique cultural exchange”.

We hope that Vietnamese Food Week at City Centre Rotana inspires people to travel to this one-of-a-kind destination,” said Tariq Almutawa, Emirates manager for Qatar.
