The Concept

At Basil, we celebrate the art of Asian dining with a modern twist. Our kitchen is inspired by the bustling streets and hidden courtyards of Asia, where flavors are bold, dishes are shared, and every meal tells a story.

We bring together timeless Asian recipes and fresh local ingredients, reimagining them through a contemporary lens. Each plate is crafted to balance flavor, texture, and color—meant not only to satisfy but also to surprise.

Our bar mirrors this philosophy, blending Asian botanicals, spices, and spirits into inventive cocktails designed to awaken the senses. Whether you’re sipping something refreshing under the stars or pairing it with your meal, every drink is an extension of the journey.

The Team

We’re a crew of dreamers, food lovers, and adventure seekers who traded city streets for island life. At Basil, we channel that energy into creating vibrant flavors and fresh experiences—where modern Asian cuisine meets the laid-back spirit of Zanzibar. Together, we’re not just serving food, we’re curating moments worth remembering.

Quentin

Head Chef

Quentin moves through the kitchen like water—calm, steady, unbothered. No chaos, no peak hour, no rush can break his flow. He first joined us out of pure curiosity, having never experienced Asian cuisine before—but surprisingly, he cooks like he was born in it. Now, as the Zen master of Basil’s flavors, he floats through each service with quiet confidence and precision. While the world outside might spin fast, Quentin keeps the center still, letting his calm translate into unforgettable dishes.

Shedrack

Assistant Manager

Nothing ever rattles Shedrack. With his easy smile and steady presence, he’s the guy who can turn chaos into calm without even trying. Need something fixed, found, or figured out? He’s already on it. Shedrack is our man of everything—the one who keeps the wheels turning and makes sure the heart of Basil beats smoothly every day.

Our Team

Our Menu

Our menu is not just a list of recipes, but a journey through the heart of Vietnam—where the warmth of a home kitchen meets the soul of the streets. We cook with curiosity, memory, and a touch of nostalgia, bringing to life the flavors that shaped our childhood and the meals once shared with family and friends.

Opening hours: 12:30 PM – 22:00 PM
