Cooked to order · Palm Springs to the coast
Plant-based menus don’t have to feel like a compromise. Tien cooks fully vegan and vegetarian menus that stand on their own. One Friendsgiving host with about 25 guests told us the vegans raved about their dishes.
Tien builds plant-based menus around peak-season produce, grains, legumes and big flavor: herbs, citrus, chili and slow roasting. Everyone at the table eats the same beautiful meal.
Vegan & Plant-Based is something Tien happily cooks on request. For the dishes he’s best known for, see his signature Modern California and Vietnamese-inspired menus.
An example only. Every Tien’s Table menu is custom, built around your guests, the season and any dietary needs.
Yes. Tien often builds one menu where every course has a plant-based version, so no one feels left out.
