Back in 2013, when Da Kao was better known for its traditional eateries than envelope-pushing concepts, two hospitality professionals, Vũ Anh Tú and Germ Doornbos, were scouting around the ward’s jumble of alleyways in search of a suitable location for Vietnam’s first dining in the dark restaurant.

In this week's episode of Vietnam Innovators, host Hao Tran will meet and chat with Germ Doornbos and hear from the story of Noir alley, which is now a thriving hub of socially responsible businesses under the Journey of the Senses umbrella: the original Noir. Dining in the Dark; sister restaurant Blanc employing deaf and hearing-impaired service team; Là Hoa. Flowers Speak flower shop run by hearing-impaired florists, and the newcomers Noir Spa and Đu Đủ Xanh Vegetarian.

What brought him to Vietnam and built this meaningful social enterprise model? Let's listen to the conversation.
