Reviews
Koto is a popular Western traveller attraction it seems, as we only ever Europeans and Americans dining here. Koto recruit at risk youths from the underprivileged locality and train them in hospitality; Chefs, barmen, wait-staff and managers. The cuisine is traditional Vietnamese or 'Western'. Although why anyone would opt for the latter when the former is so good, I haven't a clue. It's a little pricier than elsewhere in Hanoi but certainly not expensive. 140,000 VND (Vietnamese Dong) for a beautiful and generously sized beef stir-fry (approximately £4). The ambiance is relaxed and peaceful away from the buzz of Hanoi and the service is impeccable. It's actually quite moving to see how seriously the young people take their training, as it could have literally saved their lives. The surrounding locality isn't the pleasantest part of Hanoi, but this adds more significance to the initiative that is Koto.
Really loved our bún chà and bún bò. The staff is really nice. Only 350k ridiculous dongs for a terrific cause.
