Meaning of Chay

In Vietnamese, chay literally translates to vegetarian.

But it also stands for a way of living: balance, simplicity, and gratitude. Vegetarian food has long been part of Vietnamese culture. It is not about replacing meat. It is about cooking with care, depth of flavor, and high quality ingredients. That mindset is the foundation of Chay Foods.

What we make

Our first products are built around premium mushrooms, including lion’s mane. They are known for their texture and nutritional value, but they also take time to prepare properly. We do that work for you. Our dishes are fully prepared and ready to serve. Pair them with rice, noodles, bread, or salads. No compromise on taste. No loss of convenience.

Our beliefs

Vegetarian food is not a trend for us. It is part of where we come from. We don’t position our products as substitutes. We see them as food that belongs on the table. Honest, flavorful, and accessible. We believe plant-based food should feel normal, not niche. Something you reach for because it tastes good and fits your routine. That is what Chay Foods stands for.
