Baoz Dimsum, Chinese restaurant in District 5, Vietnam
Baoz Dimsum is a Cantonese dim sum restaurant on Nguyen Tri Phuong Street in District 5 of Ho Chi Minh City, spread across several floors. The menu covers classics like shrimp dumplings, chicken feet, and grilled pork intestines alongside roasted duck.
In 2025, the restaurant brought back the traditional Beijing roasted duck to Ho Chi Minh City, where the dish had become rare to find. This move helped revive interest in northern Chinese cooking among diners in the city.
The restaurant sits in District 5, the traditional Chinese neighborhood of Ho Chi Minh City, where this style of cooking has deep roots. Dishes arrive in small bamboo steamers, following the Cantonese custom of sharing many small portions across the table.
The restaurant opens early in the morning and is a good option for a dim sum breakfast as well as lunch or dinner. A lift connects all floors, making it easy to reach any dining area without using the stairs.
Although the restaurant is known for dim sum breakfasts, the upper floors are set up for large family gatherings and banquets, drawing a very different crowd from the lower floors. The shift from a casual morning meal to a formal celebration happens within the same building, floor by floor.
