Furama Resort Danang is nominated as “Vietnam’s Leading Resort” – World Travel Awards 2024
Just 5 simple steps to vote for Furama Resort & Villas Da Nang:
Spring Cultural Culinary Night: “Vietnamese Tradition – Vietnamese Artisan”
On the evening of March 29, commemorating 49 years since the Liberation of Da Nang, Furama Resort Da Nang, in collaboration with the Da Nang Hotel Association and the Da Nang Culinary Culture Association, organized a Spring Cultural and Culinary Gala to honor the beauty of culture and cuisine from all regions of Vietnam.
This event was advised by culinary culture researcher Le Tan and featured by four of Vietnam’s leading culinary artisans including Vietnamese Culinary Artisan Phan Ton Gia Hien, Master Chef Le Van Khanh – Executive Chef at 37a Hung Vuong, National Convention Center & Ho Chi Minh Political Academy, Master Chef Le Nguyen Hoan Long – Vice President of the Vietnam World Master Chefs Association, and Executive Chef Doan Van Tuan – Executive Chef of the Furama – Ariyana Danang International Tourism Complex.
At the program, Furama Resort Danang also introduced to the attendees exhibition booths of Central Region’s agricultural products from Tr’hy village, Tay Giang district, Quang Nam province; and traditional Nam O fish sauce, in Da Nang city – with the goal of promoting local agricultural products, aiming for sustainable development and building community value.
About the dishes crafted by the Vietnamese Culinary Artisans
Culinary Artisan Phan Ton Gia Hien – Crafting “Nem hinh Cong – Cha hinh Phung”
Master Chef Phan Ton Gia Hien is the eldest daughter of Mrs. Ton Nu Thi Ha – an Artisan of Vietnamese Culinary People and also the elder sister of Master Chef of Vietnamese Cuisine, judge of Vietnam’s Top Chef, World Culinary Expert, Master Chef Phan Ton Tinh Hai.
As a descendant of the Nguyen dynasty royal lineage, Master Chef Phan Ton Gia Hien inherits the culinary heritage of the famous Hue cultural family “TINH GIA VIEN” and the Imperial City of Hue with refined skills and techniques passed down from the “Royal Kitchens” serving the Imperial Court, from the noble ladies of the Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Ceremonies, and the Governor’s Mansion (in the ancient court). Hue royal cuisine is an art of culinary and artistic pinnacle requiring meticulousness and sophistication in processing and presentation. Over the past nearly 30 years, together with her mother – Mrs. Ton Nu Thi Ha, Master Chef Phan Ton Gia Hien has diligently researched, reconstructed, and innovated dishes to teach and promote Hue royal cuisine such as “Nem Cong Cha Phung” (cong-shaped spring roll, phung-shaped sausage), royal cakes, shrimp sausage on kumquat branches… which have been widely introduced to the public, domestic and international tourists.
Nem Cong Cha Phung
According to historical records, the phoenix (or fenghuang) is a bird (in the quartet of mythical creatures: dragon, unicorn, turtle, phoenix) symbolizing elegance and longevity. Nem cong is made from pheasant meat processed into sour sausage, a dish that detoxifies and cools the body. In the past, there were many pheasants raised in the Imperial Inner Palace because of the royal hunting team bringing them to nurture for serving at royal banquets. Nowadays, these two species of birds are listed in the red book, prohibited from illegal hunting, so chefs have innovated the dish by replacing it with pork, chicken, beef, shrimp, fish to create nem cong and cha phung sausages” – according to Master Chef Phan Ton Gia Hien and NNC Le Tan (event content consultant).
Master Chef Le Nguyen Hoan Long – Vice President of the World Super Chef Association – Crafting the dish “East Meets West Gathering” – American Beef with Vietnam Forest Pepper Sauce
Derived from the rich culinary heritage of the South, culinary artisan Le Nguyen Hoan Long will showcase the dish “East Meets West Gathering” – American Beef with Tay Giang Forest Pepper Sauce (European style, Vietnamese flavors & ingredients), promising to deliver an exceptional culinary experience.
Le Nguyen Hoan Long, a name deeply engraved in the hearts of Vietnamese cuisine enthusiasts under the pseudonym “David Long.” He is a talented chef, having established and developed numerous successful restaurants both domestically and internationally.

He has appeared on various television programs on HTV7 – HTV9 – VTV1 – VTV3.
East Meets West Gathering
“East Meets West Gathering” is a splendid fusion of traditional Vietnamese flavors and European culinary style. Tay Giang forest pepper, a characteristic pepper of Tay Giang district, Quang Nam province, is a unique blend of pepper and chili, considered a precious spice, adding a special touch to this dish. Potatoes are prepared in a modern style, cooked in butter to impart a unique flavor and crispiness. The presentation of the dish is meticulously crafted, with a glass tray adorned with dry ice, bamboo leaves, and Himalayan pink salt. The beef is sous vide and seared on the pan right before serving, accompanied by potatoes and bread, creating a visually stunning experience, emitting an enticing aroma that captivates the guests’ olfactory senses, achieving the artisan’s goal with the art of culinary craftsmanship, elevating the dish “East Meets West Gathering” to its pinnac.
Master Chef Le Van Khanh – Executive Chef at the National Convention Center – Crafting the “Fish turns into Dragon” Dish

He is among the few chefs in Vietnam who truly understand and can perfectly cater to the tastes of businesspeople, politicians, and the most discerning gourmets.
Fish turns into Dragon
Originating from a rich blend of sea flavors, aromatic forest essences, and earthy scents, in recent years, the distinctive dish from sea eel has become a symbol of coastal cuisine, offering guests unique and appealing culinary experiences. Among these, one of the most special and unique versions is the “Fish turns into Dragon” crafted by artisan An Khanh. Fish turns into Dragon is not just a delicious dish but also a culinary artwork, a delicate combination of fresh ingredients and characteristic sea spices. With the creativity and passion of the head chef, this dish promises to offer guests authentic and unforgettable culinary experiences.
Executive Chef Doan Van Tuan – Vice Chairman of the Danang Cultural and Culinary Association – Crafting the dish “Spring Essence”
With his experience and skills, along with a spirit of continuous learning and creativity, Executive Chef Doan Van Tuan has been enriched by the invaluable experience passed down from a culinary expert of Hue Imperial Cuisine, Mai Thi Tra (who is a descendant of Queen Mai Thi Vang, wife of King Duy Tan, the sole living witness of the Nguyen Dynasty).

Spring Essence
The magic of Vietnamese cuisine unfolds when selected ingredients are combined to create a harmonious and balanced nourishing dish, aiding digestion and providing refreshment to guests to conclude the Spring Roots and Vietnamese Heritage night.

Vietnam: Sleep Tourism on the rise
67% of Vietnamese travelers surveyed are seeking sleep-focused retreats in 2024.
Emerging tourism trends can help relieve stress and improve the quality of life of Vietnamese people in modern society.
According to Booking.com‘s recently released Travel Predictions 2024 research, at a time when stress and sleep disorders are on the rise, sleep tourism is emerging as a transformative solution that combines the allure of travel with the essential need for quality sleep.
“Sleep Tourism” has become a trend in Vietnam
The travel booking platform’s figures show that nearly two-thirds (66%) of APAC-based travellers want to travel in 2024 to focus solely on uninterrupted sleep. This trend is particularly strong in China, where 83% of travellers are looking for holidays that focus solely on a peaceful night’s sleep. Hong Kong and Thailand follow closely with 76% and 75% respectively, while Vietnam is tied with Singapore at 67%.
Varun Grover, Country Head, Vietnam at Booking.com, shared that in an increasingly hectic world, sleep is fast becoming a precious commodity.
“As predicted in our Travel Predictions 2024 report, ‘sleep tourism’ is a major trend. Nearly 67% of Vietnamese travellers surveyed are looking for sleep-focused retreats in 2024, a shift towards prioritising rest is evident,” he said.
“In response, resorts and hotels in Vietnam are offering amenities and services to help guests get a healthy dose of rest,” he added.
The trend of “sleep tourism” is not too new to the world, but it has only become popular in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many experts predict that sleep tourism will continue to grow strongly in the near future. Research firm HTF Market Intelligence estimates that it will grow by around 8% between 2023 and 2028, to reach $400 billion.
According to Dr Rebecca Robbins, a sleep researcher and lecturer in medicine at Harvard Medical School in the United States, travellers are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of sleep when travelling. “The days of travelling and coming home exhausted are over,” she told CNN about sleep tourism.
In addition, according to Robbins, one in three adults do not get the recommended number of hours of sleep per night (7 to 9 hours), causing them to fall into a state of unconsciousness and seriously affecting their mental health.
According to Booking.com, Vietnam has a number of ideal relaxing destinations for sleep tourism. Among them, two central destinations and a small northern town tick all the boxes for a perfect getaway this time of year, with cool, fresh climates and not too crowded.
According to Booking.com, the central coastal city of Danang in Quang Nam Province is the most searched for destination by Vietnamese travellers in the first quarter of this year. With a perfect blend of mountains, beaches, forests and rivers, it’s easy to see why Da Nang remains a hot tourist destination. This vibrant city caters for all types of travellers, offering several 4-5 star resorts with personalized experiences and, of course, sleep-centric amenities. Whether you are looking for relaxation, adventure or simply rejuvenation, Danang promises a restful stay at affordable prices.
“Imagine sleeping amidst the clouds after a day of exploring the surrounding natural wonders – pure bliss,” said the Booking.com report.
In addition to Vietnam, three other destinations in the Asia-Pacific region have been selected by the travel booking site as ideal for sleepovers, including Suzhou in China, Bali Island in Indonesia and Koh Samui in Thailand.
