VILLA ROYALE TEA ROOM - Key Persons


David J Campbell

Since observing and admiring the intricate surroundings of object d'art originating from Scottish and Polish born parents in his childhood home in Australia, David has a passion for the fine and collectable. After a career as a chef and hotelier working in the World's finest establishments, David has made Saigon his home. David noticed a hunger for collectable items of quality and endurance; and also a pride in heritage shared amongst local Vietnamese and expatriates. Villa Royale was born in 2013 to share David's enthusiasm for good quality, history and pedigree. The villa is complete with antiques, collectable goods, the fine, the fun and fanciful needs of an opulent lifestyle. From Australian Apprentice of the Year, to executive chef for Australia's Reserve Bank, to founder and owner of one of Saigon's most unique antique shops, David Campbell finds creative inspiration in Vietnam's history and people.
