Meet Jovel Chan, a food and beverage marketer turned blogger, founder and consultant. Jovel landed in Vietnam and quickly made her mark as the go-to authority of Vietnam's evolving food and dining scene in Ho Chi Minh City. She offers insider guides to Vietnam's F&B industry on her website jovelchan.com and is the founder of Saigon Social, the company behind Vietnam’s unique food and drink experiences such as the Saigon Supper Club and Cocktail Cinema. She's also the founder of Banyan Box - a subscription-based snacking box that shares Vietnamese and south east Asian snacks with the world. Today, Jovel explains what's going on in Vietnam's food and dining scene right now, why Vietnam's young and experimental chefs are writing the next chapter of Vietnam's food story, and what global F&B brands should consider when looking to launch in Vietnam.
