What's inside the Omakase 'culinary planet' in the heart of Son Tra?

Launched at the InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort on November 17th, Tingara is considered a " culinary planet" in the heart of Son Tra, Da Nang. With its unique bird's nest-like design and exquisite Omakase cuisine from renowned chefs, Tingara opens up a captivating culinary "universe" for every diner.

A showcase of the world's "culinary stars".

Inspired by the Okinawan meaning "river of stars," Tingara offers a truly unique culinary journey. More than just a meal, Tingara is a stage where the art of Teppanyaki and Sushi is perfectly elevated, in a subtle and delightful combination with traditional Vietnamese cuisine.

Chef Tetsuhiko Isozaki

The Omakase style – “I let you decide” – is at the heart of the Tingara experience, where diners completely entrust their taste buds to the creativity and technique of the culinary team. Leading the storytelling and guiding diners on a journey to discover the deeper layers of flavor are world-renowned culinary stars.

Culinary consultant Junichi Yoshida

Leading the culinary advisory role is Junichi Yoshida – a legend in the world of Teppanyaki art and the first Teppanyaki chef to be honored with a prestigious Michelin star. He has also been the culinary advisor since the early days of Hibana by Koki restaurant at Capella Hanoi Hotel, which received Michelin stars for two consecutive years. His presence at Tingara is a guarantee of top-tier culinary standards. Meanwhile, Head Chef Tetsuhiko Isozaki, who directly oversees the Teppanyaki counter at Tingara, embodies the meticulousness and sophistication of Japanese culinary art. Each dish he creates not only suits the palate but also tells a unique story, taking diners on a journey of emotions.

Diners enjoyed their dining experience at Tingara.

Sitting at the kitchen counter, the first diners at the restaurant witnessed firsthand the meticulous and fascinating preparation of each dish, like watching a captivating culinary magic show. The star of Tingara is the Ultimate Crispy Steak, considered a symbol of perfection, made with Yaeyama beef – kyori wagyu – the finest beef from Japan. The beef is slow-cooked to maintain its juiciness and tenderness, then grilled over Kishu Binchotan charcoal – considered by chefs to be the best charcoal in the world because it burns longer, is odorless, smokeless, and the secret to perfect Teppanyaki. The crispy exterior and tender, juicy interior, combined with the chef's signature sauces, create a flavor that leaves a lasting impression on diners visiting Tingara.

Chef Tsuneyoshi Tiara

The sushi counter is the showcase of Chef Tsuneyoshi Tiara, a sushi master with over 20 years of experience. He uses the freshest salmon and tuna slices, imported from top suppliers. The nigiri and sashimi are meticulously presented, not only visually appealing but also bursting with original, fresh flavors in every slice. What makes Tingara special is not only the art of food preparation but also the close interaction between the chef and diners. Each dish is like a secret revealed little by little, transforming the entire meal into a delightful and surprising culinary journey.

Wine tasting expert Tri Tran (Peter)

At Tingara, beverages are not simply a part of the meal, but the perfect complement to elevate the culinary experience. Under the expert selection of Tasting Master Tri Tran (Peter) – formerly of the renowned French restaurant La Maison 1888 – diners can enjoy fine sake, shōchū, Japanese whisky, along with creative cocktails and premium wines.

Tingara restaurant is located within the InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort.

Cuisine across the… “Milky Way”

Located on the "Heaven" level – the highest level of the InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort – Tingara resembles a nest nestled amidst the lush green forests of the Son Tra Peninsula. Designed by Bill Bensley in a unique circular shape, the restaurant offers expansive views of the vast ocean, transporting diners to a world both close to nature and unique, with details inspired by tropical forests and the ocean.

The ceiling is designed to resemble the "Milky Way".

With a capacity of only 52 guests, Tingara offers a private and intimate atmosphere, ideal for romantic evenings or important meetings. The ceiling is designed like a shimmering "Milky Way," with giant blue fish gracefully gliding across it. Warm golden light surrounds the "Milky Way," further enhancing the vibrant and magical ambiance. This imagery evokes not only the beauty of the ocean but also the wonder of the universe, creating a magnificent space like a work of art.

The restaurant's ambiance is sophisticated.

The space at Tingara is exquisitely designed to meet every diner's needs. The central area features a circular food counter surrounding a Teppanyaki grill, where diners can watch the skilled chefs showcase their culinary artistry right before their eyes. Beyond the central counter, Tingara also offers separate dining tables, cleverly placed by large glass windows with panoramic views of the Son Tra mountain landscape. The soft lines of the interior design, combined with natural materials like wood and stone, create a warm and luxurious atmosphere. All of this contributes to enhancing the dining experience, making each meal at Tingara not just a culinary delight, but a memorable journey from taste to sight. "I never thought a meal could be such an emotionally charged experience as at Tingara.
