Aiii House Saigon
Where echoes of Vietnamese life are reimagined on the plate
Aiii House Saigon is more than a restaurant — it’s an echo house. A space where the sounds of Vietnamese life resonate through cuisine: street vendors’ chants, the hush of lullabies, the poetry of home kitchens. These echoes are neither literal nor nostalgic, but emotional fragments that find new form on the plate.
Led by Chef Alain Pham, Aiii reimagines Vietnamese dishes through a refined, contemporary lens. Each course is an act of translation — from memory to flavor, from cultural imprint to sensory expression. It’s a place where food doesn’t just taste good, but speaks to something deeper.
The Vision Behind: by Chef Alain Pham
“I don’t just cook dishes. I translate memories.”
Alain Pham — Co-founder and Head Chef of Aiii — brings over a decade of experience from Michelin-starred kitchens in France and Europe. Trained at Le Cordon Bleu Paris and École Ducasse, Alain’s culinary voice blends classical technique with the rich emotional heritage of Vietnam.
Born in Saigon to a Vietnamese–French family, his first influences came from his grandmother’s rustic cooking. After years abroad, Alain returned home with the intention to redefine Vietnamese cuisine, not by changing it, but by listening deeply to it.
At Aiii, he leads a team of young, passionate talents to craft multi-layered menus where every element — from plating to storytelling — is intentional and heartfelt. His cuisine is not only technical; it is a dialogue between past and present, between identity and openness.
