It was not written in the stars that the Vietnamese boat refugee, Allan Huynh, should open a restaurant in Denmark when he was picked up in the Indian Ocean by a French tanker as a 12-year-old.

Dreams of many years came true when Allan - who has a restaurant degree - opened restaurant The Red Box in Store Kongensgade 42 on May 2010.

In collaboration with chef Jin Wang, Allan introduces the guests to a delicate, healthy, modern French-Asian cuisine, where the dishes on the menu are based on classic French brasserie cuisine and derive flavor nuances from Asian spices such as chili, garlic, star anise, black bean, and lemongrass.

In 2021, Kasper Cetti became a partner of The Red Box. He has more than 25 years of experience in the industry and together the 3 now run The Red Box.
