Specialties
You’ll find a warm welcome at Anh Dao, with Tram running ‘front of house’. The restaurant is licenced and can cater for large groups in a plush but friendly atmosphere. The emphasis here is on fine authentic food, lots of delicious sea food dishes and a first-class service.
History
Established in 2010.
Over 30 years ago in 1979, a teenage Vietnamese girl called Tram Dao fled the post-war Communist régime in Vietnam with her sister.
They arrived in England as ‘boat people’, as the Press dubbed the thousands of Vietnamese refugees who left their homeland in small boats and endured perilous journeys. The UN estimates that one third of the refugees died at sea.
Tram’s first weeks in England were spent at Thorney Island refugee camp in West Sussex, where she met her future husband Peter Rimmer, then a senior field officer at the camp. They married in 1984 and now have five children.
From those early years, Tram always wanted to open a restaurant and now that the children are either grown up or nearly so, Tram has now fulfilled her dream.
The couple opened the Anh Dao restaurant, which is Vietnamese for peach blossom in December 2010.
