Founded in 1945, the establishment is a family business that has remained in operation for over seven decades while maintaining traditional cooking methods. The place has passed through three generations of family ownership.
The place follows Vietnamese cooking traditions by sourcing mature hens that are specially raised to develop the right tenderness and flavor for their signature dish.

The chicken broth rice maintains a natural light yellow color from the ingredients themselves rather than added coloring agents. This approach is less common than you might expect, since many places use dyes to make the dish look richer.
