Cochin Restaurant Cochin Restaurant

Cochin Restaurant is an award nominated Vietnamese restaurant located in Surry Hills, the recipient of the Restaurant and Catering NSW Awards for Excellence 2008 - Finalist for Best Asian Restaurant.

Cochin comes from Cuu Chan, the old Chinese name for the southern part of Vietnam. Portuguese Jesuits probably heard it from the Japanese, whose pronunciation was close to Cochin. Europeans usually called it Cochin-China to distinguish it from the city of Cochin in India. The French annexed Cochin from the Vietnamese Emperor in the 1860s, making it their first colony in Indochina.

Vietnamese cuisine is distinctly regional, with notable differences between northern, central and southern food. Our menu is derived from the southern tradition, with an emphasis on the French influence, which was especially strong in the restaurants and homes of the capital, Saigon. These traditions are combined with Australian products in Cochins contemporary style.

We are located three doors east of Bourke St, and two blocks south of Taylor Square. Fitzroy St is one-way from South Dowling St to Bourke St, where it becomes Foveaux St. After 7pm you can park directly opposite the restaurant in Fitzroy St, otherwise parking is available round the corner in Bourke St and the adjacent side-streets.

Open Tuesday to Saturday from 6pm to 10pm.
