Once you reach the restaurant, located in an old farm building, you’ll be speechless. As soon as you walk through the door you’ll forget that you are in Milano, and feel like you have travelled back in time to the 1920s, when Vietnam was called Indocine, and opulence and excess were an everyday occurrence.
Shambala’s atmosphere is just perfect: dim lights and candles illuminate the low tables, set with exquisite asian tableware. Once you sit on one of the very comfy silk cushions on the floor, order a cocktail (they have great bartenders), and take a look at the menu.
Old vietnamese recipes are presented in updated versions with a flair: you’ll find everything from spicy apetizer rolls to filet mignon, from vegeterian stir fries to incredible seafood dinners.
