Responsibility
STREETS International is an innovative social enterprise initiative with the purpose to develop and operate sustainable programs for street kids and disadvantaged youth in SE Asia and throughout the world. STREETS also prepares vulnerable, orphaned and other disadvantaged young people for careers in hospitality.
Business Case
All Trainees at STREETS International will spend part of each week at the restaurant, applying what they have learned in their classes. It is an essential part of the overall STREETS program, providing a training platform for hands-on learning, observation and practice. Critical to this innovative social enterprise is that all the restaurant revenue goes towards supporting the comprehensive program. The profit from the restaurant is then reinvested for future training. With food inspired by chefs from around the world, the menus at STREETS feature the highest standards of carefully selected contemporary Vietnamese and International cuisine. A speciality is the acclaimed Hoi An Tasting Menu, offering diners a taste of the iconic dishes unique to historic Hoi An.
