There is nothing quite like the change of seasons and the rice harvest during the full moon celebrations. The smell of golden rice floats on the air and all around there is the calm commotion of locals separating and drying this staple of life. Here 1000 square meters can yield 600 kilos of rice twice a year. Enough to sustain many a local family for months.
It is a special joy to get to enjoy this dance, ….while watching from the comfort of our garden with a nice cold beverage .;-)

On special occasions we get the pleasure to host some beautiful global travelers and last week when our guests asked for a modern Vietnamese seafood bbq, we could not help but have a little fun ;-)
Canapés: Crab Pho Cuon with cucumbers garnished with red caviar and served with a cashew nut yogurt sesame dipping sauce
Salad: Vietnamese vermicelli salad with 10 hour slow cooked cuttlefish, burrata, and balsamic cream finish
Main: BBQed lobster with lemongrass garlic butter sauce, slow cooked and BBQed corn on the cob with fried sweet potatoes all served with fresh lemon and shallot mayonnaise
Dessert: Che Chuoi with Marou chocolate, fresh coconut meat shavings, and candied walnuts
From all our family to yours we wish that the year of the Cat brings you love, prosperity, travels, good food, and even better company. Chúc mừng năm mới!
The danger of staying a few weeks at Villa Iliou is that there is so much more time to spoil our guests.

Antipasti:
• Creamy ricotta dip with roasted cherry tomatoes
• Marinated mushrooms with raspberry vinaigrette and almonds
• Fried sardines served with red lumpfish caviar and dill on top of a bed of arugula
Salad:
• Caprese salad with fresh Da Lat burrata
Main course:
• Fruiti di Mare in wine sauce with fresh spinach spaghetti
- & a 5 Mushroom truffle cream sauce over fresh tagliatelle with pine nuts (for our lucky vegetarian guest)
Dessert:
• Zabaglione with Strawberries
When it comes to our guests, we love pushing the limits, creating some memories, and putting lovely souls into deep food comas!
