Source
The address, phone number, weekend closure and the remarks about the space come from the restaurant's Google Maps profile, read on 16 Oct 2026: 140 reviews by 140 different authors, all 5 stars, the newest review around 15 Oct 2026. The entrance location (a sloping alley beside number 76), the capacity of 10 guests, the pre-order deadline of 9 a.m., the daily-changing menu, the list of dishes and the relationship with An Homestay come from the owner's website. The website's domain registration has lapsed, so these pages were read through Internet Archive copies of 12 Apr 2026 and 25 May 2025. The set price of 155,000 VND/180,000 VND, cash-only payment, holiday closures and the history of the opening (postponed because of the storm in Sep 2024) come from HappyCow (review 27 May 2026, profile updated 12 Apr 2026). The owner's words about mother and child cooking together come from Tripadvisor. Not used: the opening hours, because Google Maps, HappyCow and Tripadvisor give three different ranges; the price of each dish on the Tripadvisor menu, because the menu is undated; the price label 'under 100,000 VND per person' chosen by one user, because it contradicts the owner's own prices. The Google Maps reviews are Google's automatic translations.
