Hum Garden은 Thao Dien 다이닝 씬에서 보기 드문 자리를 차지하고 있다. 완전히 식물성 재료만을 사용하면서도 베트남 요리를 진지하게 탐구하는 곳이다. 메뉴는 전국 각지의 향토 특산물에서 영감을 끌어온다 — Dien Bien 찹쌀에 Sapa 숲버섯을 감싼 요리, Que Son 카사바 뿌리를 베이스로 한 매콤한 phở, 타마린드 소스에 버무린 Sa Dec 쌀국수까지. 고기를 단순히 제거하는 방식의 채식이 아니라, 채식을 베트남 식재료의 지역적 다양성을 선보이는 수단으로 삼는 접근이다.
모든 요리에는 영양학적 의도가 깔려 있다. 현미 볼은 혈당지수를 고려해 구성되고, 연근은 비타민 C 공급원으로 소개되며, 아티초크 수프는 콜레스테롤 조절에 도움이 되는 음식으로 포지셔닝된다. 맛과 기능을 연결하는 이 방식이, 깊이와 복잡함은 포기하지 않으면서도 건강을 중시하는 점심 손님들을 끌어당긴다. 구글 리뷰 1,504개에 평균 4.6점을 기록하며, 매장 교체가 빠른 이 동네에서 진정한 저력을 증명하고 있다.
요리는 식감의 스펙트럼을 능숙하게 넘나든다 — 바삭하게 튀긴 버섯 스프링롤 옆에는 시원한 Thuwan Nam 오이 수프가 자리하고, 그릴에 구운 가지와 새송이버섯은 바삭한 라이스페이퍼와 함께 플레이팅된다. 판단 향을 입힌 재스민 라이스는 묵직한 메인 요리의 향긋한 베이스가 된다. 제철 식재료 또한 메뉴 전반에 걸쳐 두드러지는데, 북서부 지역 패션프루트와 자몽 샐러드, 그리고 자연 건조 채소에 직접 만든 곁들임을 함께 내는 계절 플레터가 메뉴를 풍성하게 채운다.
정원 환경은 레스토랑 전체의 감성을 한층 강화한다. 자연 채광, 풍성한 녹음, 여유로운 분위기가 Thao Dien의 시끄러운 카페-레스토랑 혼합 공간과 이곳을 뚜렷이 구별 짓는다. 매일 오전 10시부터 오후 10시까지 운영하여, 점심 세트 식사와 이른 저녁 식사를 모두 아우르는 동네에서 가장 유연한 선택지 중 하나다. 웨스턴 brunch 스팟이 넘쳐나는 이 지역에서, 정규 운영 시간 내내 베트남 식물성 요리에 이토록 온전히 헌신하는 곳은 분명한 공백을 메운다.
Sensational vegetarian restaurant. Attentive service, offering suggestions and information about their ingredients. The dishes were phenomenally delicious (and I am not even vegetarian). Mushroom fried spring rolls was smashing. Very relaxed ambience made this one of our favourite restaurants in HCM city. Highly recommended 👌
Pretty good variety of vegetarian dishes, ordered the broccolini twice as it was stirred fry with good tasty sauce. Air con was sufficient for the hot summer, but not as cool as I would have expected. Dishes are up to standard to the photos and delicious
Nice ambience for couples, business meal. Very clean and well decorated. Staff are friendly and attentive today details. Food is nice and lots of options. Paid 1m for 2 pax.
Probably ordered a bit too much, but we just wanted to try everything off the menu. And it did not disappoint cos everything was so fresh and so delicious! From the starters to the mains and the dessert, Chef was able to do justice to every single ingredient. We really enjoyed it all!!! Special shoutout to Xuan le who was sooo attentive throughout our meal. She recommended the best dishes and made sure we had a lovely celebration. We will certainly be talking about this meal for months to come :)
I’ve dined at Hum many times. The dishes that have been on the menu for a while are always delicious. This time, I tried the Dien Bien sticky rice with shiitake mushrooms… (the name was quite long), but the outer layer of the sticky rice was hard and rubbery. I think the chef should find a way to improve this issue. Or maybe remove the outer layer altogether, as it made the dish quite disappointing. The service staff were very friendly and enthusiastic, and they happily accommodated our request to change tables for our family. The only unpleasant moment was when my family was leaving. My mother and sister stopped by The Bloom to take some photos, and someone came to the counter there and gave our family a very unfriendly look. I felt uncomfortable and asked my family to leave early. As we walked past the entrance, the receptionist was very polite and sweet.
