Most of us here use sign language

So your visit will be a little different from other restaurants. All of it is on purpose, and all of it is easy.

This is not a rule book. Talk, laugh, even sing. Nobody is required to stay silent, just let things be natural.

  1. Answer to “EM OIII”

    Only the people wearing an “Em ơi” shirt will answer when you call “EM OIII”, it sounds like “sorry” in English. Everyone else will not. Waving works too.

  2. No music

    Some of us can still hear rhythm or random noise, and it breaks our safe zone: the quiet. In exchange you get to use your other senses a little more.

  3. Reading, writing, signing

    These matter a great deal here. Point at the menu, write a note, or learn the alphabet. It takes a little longer, and it is worth it.

Five elements, five juices

Ngũ Hành, the five elements, turn up in food and inside our bodies. Eastern medicine holds that food can heal, nourish and restore balance. We press ours daily, with little or no added sugar.

Hành Thủy

Water · deep blue and black · the salty one. Nourishes the kidneys, balances water, sharpens memory and eases fatigue. Stillness and emotional depth.

Hành Kim

Metal · white · gently pungent. Supports the lungs and the breath, clears the skin and balances the endocrine system. Clarity and focus.

Hành Thổ

Earth · brown · quietly sweet. Strengthens the stomach and spleen, improves digestion and absorption, supports immunity. Stability and nourishment.

Hành Mộc

Wood · green · sour. Cleanses the liver, helps the eyes and steadies the mood. Growth and renewal, better sleep, less tension.

Hành Hỏa

Fire · red · faintly bitter. Supports the heart, moves the blood, lifts the spirit. Warmth, joy and connection.

Why the name

Vietnom is how you say Việt Nam in a Quảng Nam / Đà Nẵng accent. Nomnom món Việt, good Vietnamese food, leaning towards the flavours of the centre.
