Flavor Journey is an 8-course dining experience exploring the connection between Taiwanese and Vietnamese cuisine through flavor, memory, movement, and sound. Created by Traveler in collaboration with 929 and Lee Kum Kee, the experience uses shared ingredients, cooking techniques, and flavor foundations as a way to explore how cultures evolve across borders while still remaining deeply connected. Rather than presenting the cuisines as fusion, each course highlights a different point of overlap between Taiwan and Vietnam, from broth and fermentation to tea culture, herbs, smoke, and spice. The evening combines food, cocktail pairing, music, visual storytelling, and interactive elements into a single narrative-driven experience. The Experience Guests will move through an 8-course tasting menu with optional cocktail pairing by 929. The progression of the menu was designed like a journey, beginning with lighter, brighter flavors before gradually moving into deeper, slower, more nostalgic profiles. Alongside the dining experience, the evening also features: A DJ-curated sonic journey exploring Taiwanese and Vietnamese music influences Visual storytelling inspired by train travel and migration Cocktail pairings designed by 929 Interactive takeaway elements inspired by pantry culture and sauces A dining environment built around movement, memory, and sensory transition The Menu Pork Sausage Sando inspired by Bánh mì Sausage Wrap inspired by 大腸包小腸(Small Sausage in Large Sausage) Hamachi inspired by 梅粉(Plum Powder) x Mắm nêm(Vietnamese Fermented Fish Sauce) Atlantic Cod inspired by 麻油雞(Sesame Oil Chicken) x Chả Cá(Vietnamese Turmeric & Dill Fish) Beef Tongue inspired by 紅糟肉(Taiwanese Red Yeast Pork) x Bò Nướng(Vietnamese Grilled Beef) Crab Vermicelli inspired by 乾拌麵(Taiwanese Dry-Tossed Noodle) x Bún(Vietnamese Rice Vermicelli) Coconut Shave Ice inspired by 剉冰(Taiwanese Shaved Ice) x Cà phê(Vietnamese Coffee) Sweet Dew inspired by 八寶冰(Eight Treasure Ice) x Chè(Traditional Vietnamese Dessert) Traveler Flavor Journey Details & Tickets
