Hervé Blanes is not simply a seafood purveyor, he is a genuine seafood lover. Born and raised in Marseille, and now residing in Ho Chi Minh City, he’s the CEO of Nine Indochinese Dragons Co Ltd, the leading premium seafood supplier in Vietnam, as well as the owner of both La Poissonnerie and Duke&Oyster Bar in District 2. Having grown up on the beach, his passion for the ocean and commitment to all things seafood is unparalleled. We had the chance to chat with Monsieur Blanes about his business practices, and his devotion to the industry in Vietnam.

Fancy a breezy escape in Ho Chi Minh City? Why not dine alfresco and indulge in a seafood feast at La Sirena. What could be more of a treat than the freshest catch of the season, from giant lobsters to oysters, clams, mussels, snails, and tiger prawns that are so fresh, you can eat them raw.
