Tuyet’s greatest inspiration was her great granduncle, Le Pho (1937-2001), a renowned Vietnamese artist. Le Pho masterfully melded impressionism, surrealism, and traditional Chinese art to create a mesmerizing blend of styles.

His most famous artwork, “Nue”, sold for an unprecedented $1.4M in 2019, marking the highest sale ever for a Vietnamese artist at that time. This timeless masterpiece represents a daring departure from convention and societal norms. Le Pho’s fearless approach elevated Vietnamese art, transforming the perception from inexpensive to invaluable. This spirit of audacity and transformation fuels NUE’s ethos.

At NUE, we imbue every corner with Le Pho’s trailblazing spirit. Each room envelopes you in an ethereal ambiance that transcends the typical dining experience. Our cuisine is a delicate blend of tradition and innovation, where every dish becomes a canvas. We paint a vivid picture with harmonious flavors and rhythmic textures, creating a dining experience that stays with you long after your visit.
