TET HOLIDAY CLOSURE NOTICE

Năm mới Bính Ngọ khẽ gõ cửa, nàng xuân cũng vừa đến hiên nhà. Nephele xin phép tạm khép lại những buổi tối rộn ràng, dành chút thời gian du xuân từ 15.02 đến hết 22.02.

Hẹn gặp lại vào 23.02 – mùng 7 Tết, khi một mùa mới bắt đầu. Nephele cũng rất mong bạn đến “xông đất”, gợi mở câu chuyện đầu xuân, gửi trao lời chúc đủ đầy.

We’re slipping into Tết spirit from 15 February to 22 February, a short pause to gather luck, laughter, and a little indulgence.

We reopen on 23 February and would be honored to celebrate the beginning of the year with you. If you wish to “xông đất” at Nephele, reservations are available via the link in our bio.

Đối với Văn, rượu dường như đã trở thành một dạng thanh âm, có khi dịu dàng, có khi cao trào.

Văn đem đến một niềm đam mê mãnh liệt với rượu cũng giống như cách mà bạn yêu thích âm nhạc. Mỗi ly rượu được dẫn dắt bằng giai điệu, xúc cảm và những điểm chạm thời gian. Văn vẫn luôn như thế, tinh tế trong từng lựa chọn, lặng lẽ quan sát, rồi để rượu cất lời. Một nhạc trưởng đang dần định hình tại Nephele, lắng nghe tâm trạng của thực khách ghé thăm nhà, và mời họ bằng những ly rượu ngon như ôm trọn cảm xúc.

Hãy cùng đón chờ những khoảnh khắc bùng nổ của Sommelier Văn tại Nephele trong năm nay.

Some people taste wine, Văn listens to it.

To him, wine is sound, sometimes a soft melody, sometimes a bold chorus. Like music, it’s all about rhythm, mood, and timing. He pours with intention, letting each glass speak in its own voice. Working the way a musician approaches silence: listening first, pouring second.

Meet Văn, our Sommelier at Nephele he presses play on your glass.

𝑽𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒊𝒔𝒏’𝒕 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒘𝒐.
It’s a slow evening in our Nephele villa, wood-fired aromas drifting through open spaces, wine poured without watching the clock, courses unfolding at their own rhythm.

No rush. No turning tables.
Just a night meant to be shared, lingered over, and remembered. And for a table filled with ladies, a special gift awaits.

They say there’s always room for dessert and we honour the space by earning it.

Sweet and savoury meet warm and cold. Brown butter foam still warm, roasted rice ice cream melting slowly beneath. Imperial Selection caviar, aged 18 years, appears where it’s least expected, chosen for its buttery depth, nutty finish, large pearls, never fishy. Fish sauce–caramelised walnuts add tension, not shock, finished with walnut oil to extend the finish.

What feels playful is precise. A final note, meant to linger.
Curious enough, book your table via our link on bio.

Trứng cá tầm xuất hiện ở thứ tự ít ai mong đợi, được đặt cạnh phần óc chó ngào nước mắm trong món tráng miệng tại Nephele, như một lựa chọn có chủ ý, mở ra cuộc đối thoại chậm rãi giữa vị béo, bùi và lớp mặn-ngọt được tiết chế.

Kỹ thuật được thể hiện rõ nhất ở khâu chọn nguyên liệu. Crystal caviar từ cá tầm hơn mười năm tuổi, trứng lớn, vị béo bơ, hậu vị hạt rõ nét và không tanh mùi cá. Đủ tinh tế để hòa vào cấu trúc món tráng miệng, nâng đỡ hương vị thay vì lấn át chúng.

Tất cả khép lại bằng một cảm giác tưởng như ngẫu hứng, nhưng thực chất là kết quả của sự tính toán kỹ lưỡng đến từng chi tiết.

We believe the best wine is not the one already opened, but the one about to be opened, when there are people to share it with. At Nephele, hospitality begins the same way: unhurried, heartfelt, and with a table always ready.

This 𝐄𝐥 𝐏𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 brings together Nephele × Red Apron × Vega Sicilia — one of Spain’s most iconic wine houses. Hosted by Red Apron, with the owner of Vega Sicilia - Señor Pablo Álvarez Mezquiriz joining us in person, the evening is also an invitation to hear the stories behind the wines.

Bonus: Paul’s love for Spain, its raw authenticity, el pundonor, and proud, passionate culture, comes to the table with Vega Sicilia. And our junior sommelier, Văn, makes his stage debut with a fearless pairing alongside Chef Francis Thuận Trần.

If you believe the best dinners are the ones filled with laughter, we cordially invite you to join the table.

Lobster, done the Nephele way. Cooked gently in Sichuan oil, finished over ember.

Chilli, Sichuan pepper, anise, warmth with restraint. An emulsion of lobster oil, walnut milk, saffron, and amontillado sherry adds nutty depth and soft florals. Pear and king oyster mushroom bring the finish back to calm.

Quietly complex. Everything intentional.

In Nephele’s garden, things grow fast, and sometimes wild.
Han, our Assistant Restaurant Manager, is the calm rain after the storm. Guided by one belief: people are key, always.

“To me, Nephele feels like Chef Thuan Tran’s enriched garden, one where curiosity fuels my excitement to see how I’ll bloom. Here, we nurture, cultivate, and thrive. Individually, yet together.”

That’s the kind of garden we grow, every day.
