Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi, the 124-year-old luxury hotel in Vietnam’s capital, will welcome Chef Viki Geunes of the 3-Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant Zilte in Belgium for a series of exclusive “four-hands dinners” at Le Beaulieu in April.
Chef Viki, one of Belgium’s most celebrated chefs, is known for his refined technique and innovative, experimental approach to flavors. A self-taught culinary master, he forged his path to the top through dedication and discipline. In 2021, he earned the rare distinction of a third Michelin star, with the Guide praising him as a "fastidiously meticulous chef who delicately plays with each texture and flavor, conjuring up food that is complex and gutsy, yet free of fussy frills."
His restaurant, Zilte, located on the highest floor of the MAS Museum with panoramic views of Antwerp, is one of only two 3-starred establishments in Belgium. Since 2023, it has been a distinguished member of Relais & Châteaux, and in 2024, it joined the prestigious Les Grandes Tables du Monde. Zilte also holds an 18.5/20 rating from Gault & Millau, a renowned French restaurant guide.
At Le Beaulieu, Chef Viki will collaborate with Chef de Cuisine Charles Degrendele, a native of Marseille, France. Chef Charles brings a fresh perspective to modern French cuisine with a culinary background that spans diverse cultures and influences. His dishes epitomize his culinary vision in three words: sustainable, innovative and simple. They showcase the finest produce, pay homage to dedicated suppliers, and present ingredients in an artistic and elegant manner.
Together, the two chefs will craft an exceptional six-course menu, where sophisticated compositions, daring flavors and a masterful play on textures blend seamlessly.
The meals will be served on April 4 and 5, between 6pm and 10pm, and priced at VND 7,000,000++ per person (with an optional VND 2,900,000++ add-on for wine pairing).
The dinners will have limited availability and the hotel highly recommends securing a place early for this exclusive dining opportunity. The collaboration promises a one-of-a-kind gastronomic experience, drawing food connoisseurs in the local community and beyond.

Delhi’s culinary landscape has welcomed a new and imaginative entrant with the launch of Tubata in Pitampura, introduced by restaurateur Neeraj Aggarwal, over a decade after he unveiled his first venture, Lotus Leaf.
Tubata is not just a restaurant, it has been envisioned as a sensorial playground and a being inspired by the raw forces of nature. According to the release, it is “a mystical creature born from the elements of air, land, and ocean, where bold flavours, evocative design, and elemental spirit come together in perfect balance.”
Sharing his vision, Aggarwal said, “Tubata is not just a restaurant, it’s a feeling. It’s a space to indulge, to celebrate, to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with something primal, something beautiful. It’s refined, imaginative, and unapologetically distinctive.”
Tubata’s identity draws from the harmony of opposing worlds, with its emblem, the leopard, symbolising grace, mastery, and movement. The interiors reflect lush foliage, marine coral, and fluid natural forms, echoing the philosophy that indulgence is not excess, but alignment with nature’s rhythm.
The restaurant’s design presents a mix of unmatched aesthetics, cosy interiors, and a hint of glamour. It takes guests back to an era of good food and good mood, offering a cosmic play of a bespoke global experience. The multi-cuisine menu has been curated by a culinary team driven by curiosity and craft, reimagining familiar flavours while also introducing innovative creations.
Tubata also evolves with time. By day, it offers a soulful, inviting space for relaxed lunches, conversations, or quiet indulgence. By night, the atmosphere shifts as the lights deepen, the drinks flow, and the space transforms into a lively destination filled with rhythm and celebration.
Aggarwal summarised, “With an identity rooted in evolution, transformation, and sensory delight, Tubata is not your regular restaurant, it’s an experience, vibe and memory. With all ingredients amalgamated together, Tubata will surely give you reason to visit again and again.”
