Ha Long, Munich

This Vietnamese restaurant is run by a former German TV presenter, so it's no surprise to find film and TV people having a get-together here. It was recently refurbished, but they haven't gone overboard on the inside, instead opting for a modern look which can seem a bit cold at times. The food, however, is great and also healthy (plenty of fresh vegetables and fish). Traditional Vietnamese cooking rather than anything new-fangled is the order of the day. Like in most Asian restaurants, the service is unassuming yet always friendly.
