Note for Jain travellers

Vietnamstory.in has planned trips for many Jain families, and we understand your dietary needs are very specific. Please do not worry, it is possible to eat well in Phu Quoc.

Our strongest advice is to call the Indian restaurants like Maharaja Lounge or Ganesh in advance. Speak with the manager and explain your requirements (no onion, no garlic, no root vegetables). The chefs are from India and understand these needs. If you give them a little notice, they will be more than happy to prepare a special, delicious Jain meal just for you.
