Hochi Mama was the God Mother of all aspiring street artists and rappers in the early nineties. An immigrant in the big city, she hosted underground art shows along with rap battles for the rejects; a place where you could just be at home, but with family. The whole crew was always welcome, the more the merrier, and she was well renowned for creating innovative dishes using the original famous dishes from her home country, and plenty of booze, in her spacious and homey warehouse.This cheeky, vibrant and buzzing Vietnamese Fusion venue is one for your to-do list. Boasting a killer menu and a super cool vibe, this place is known for a cocktail, feast or an intimate date night.

I took my team for lunch and we had the larger set menu. It was fantastic! Service was excellent and prompt. Food amazing. Cocktails heavenly. They kindly accommodated one of the group who couldn’t eat chillies as well. I hadn’t been before and would definitely go back again. Excellent value for money too. Highly recommend.

Food was solid. We were a party of 8. I'm Asian and understand family style eating. Still, the experience would have been better if the wait staff served the food to us. It's too much work to divide every dish equally.
