Lion Restaurant also holds gastronomic programs periodically. A beer buffet program featuring natural flavor of German draft beer in Bavaria is offered to guests on Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets are priced at VND120,000/guest and guests can enjoy black and gold beer within four hours.

From October this year, the restaurant will serve Sunday lunch buffet instead of only weekday buffets previously. With elegant and airy atmosphere, lunch buffet varies every day with more than 45 Asian and European dishes, such as boiled vegetable served with braised sauce, salad, chicken and banana flower salad, and female diners’ favorite dishes, such as bánh bèo, bánh úc, bánh nm and bánh xèo of the three regions of Vietnam.

Diners should not miss main courses and desserts, including cakes, fruits and sweet soups. Lunch buffet at Lion is for not only white-collar workers but also families and foreign diners.
