The Termite Mushroom (Termitomyces) is a true wonder of the natural world. Unlike many fungi, these cannot be farmed by human hands. They exist only where they are cultivated by termite colonies in a delicate, subterranean dance. They are a gift from the wild, appearing only when the humidity and soil temperature are exactly right.

At Spice Canvas Atelier, every dish is a chapter, and our latest Dessert Tasting Menu, "Spellbound," was designed to take our guests on a sensorial journey across Vietnam. Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on the menu’s grand finale: Theobroma.

At Spice Canvas, we don't just cook; we paint with flavor. To our chefs, every plate is a blank slate, and spices are the vibrant pigments that turn a meal into a masterpiece.

While our pantry is filled with treasures, there is one family of spices that defines our signature depth: Pepper. Forget the dusty shaker on the corner of the table—we’ve sourced seven distinct varieties that bring everything from numbing citrus notes to earthy heat.

In the Spellbound kitchen, we don’t just use spices; we curate experiences. Among the jars of gold and velvet powders lining our shelves, one stands apart. We call Cardamom the "Queen" for a reason. She is one of the world’s most complex aromatics—a tiny green pod that holds a universe of flavor within its dark, resinous seeds.

Our dessert tasting menu begins not with a whisper, but with a strike. Introducing “The Poison Apple,” a dish designed to challenge your expectations and blur the line where savory ends and sweetness begins.

January 18 marks a milestone we’ll never forget. Exactly 365 days ago, Spice Canvas opened its doors for the very first time. Back then, our "canvas" was a modest bakery counter, a handful of family recipes, and a simple vision to do things differently.
