Hiep Truong

Our Head Chef

Growing up in a farming family, with a home on the fields lying in the back of Chứa Chan mountain, his childhood shaped by the rhythms of nature, days of wandering around the family’s pepper and tobacco farm, Chef Hiep knows his heart was always close to the quiet beauty of his surroundings, the Vietnamese essence, as it was the nearest way to bring him back to his family.

Started to choose cooking as his strongest love language at a young age, he worked hard to hone his craft and grow as a chef. With roots in Hue, a land rich in cultural and culinary heritage, Chef Hiep draws deep inspiration from the traditional dishes of Central Vietnam. His creations reflect not only his skill and passion but also the soulful taste of his homeland, reimagined with care and respect.

Upstairs Tasting Room is a dream this hardworking man has always dreamed of. Through thoughtful gestures and unwavering dedication, he inspires his team - not with words, but with care, precision, and strength of focus. To Chef Hiep, Upstairs is a place to nurture talents, the alive aspire of the young and devoted team, together they build a meaningful legacy.
