Please join us for our private tasting dinner at Vinai! Enjoy a 5-course tasting dinner and learn about Hmong Food from the chefs of Vinai. Hear the stories behind the inspiration of Vinai, the restaurant. Vinai the restaurant (pronounced VEE-nye) is named after the Ban Vinai Refugee Camp in Thailand— the place where Chef Yia Vang’s parents met and the place he was born. Ban Vinai, the refugee camp, served as a place of safety, reunification, and restoration. Vinai, the restaurant, serves as a love letter from Yia to his parents. It serves as an homage to Hmong culture and history. And it serves as a place of restoration, a place where we invite you to celebrate, honor, and illuminate stories of your own through the universal language of food. Hmong food draws on the flavors of the Southeast Asian countries that the nomadic Hmong people traveled through. Our menu features modern interpretations of the Hmong family dishes Yia grew up eating including large shared mains, bright veggie sides and bold sauces. Vinai is located at 1300 NE 2nd St, Minneapolis, MN 55413. If event is sold out, please add your names to the waitlist. We will contact you if tickets becomes available. NOTE: After July 2nd you may transfer your registration. Refunds less $15 if we are able to fill your spot from our waitlist.
