Local Cuisine
Vietnamese cuisine is known for its age-old recipes and simplicity, distinguished by a delicate balance of flavours. Vietnamese dishes rival those of Thai, in diverse flavour, and there are only a few places outside of Vietnam that could ever replicate the quality. From street delicacies to five star buffets, Vietnam offers a wide range of food that is sure to tantalise your taste buds. Wherever you travel across the country, you’ll surely find delicious fare and good eats!
- Enjoy a seafood feast in Nha Trang, the seafood capital of Vietnam – fresh fish and shellfish are the highlight of many meals in the coastal resort city, usually served in streetside eateries up to high-class restaurants.
- Treat yourself to a bowl of Vietnam’s staple dish, Pho (noodle soup), and savour the thickness of the light beef or chicken broth sprinkled with a dash of chilli flakes for extra spice.
- Pop into a bakery or a street eatery and grab some Banh Mi – the Vietnamese version of French baguette that’s crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, filled with pickled vegetables, herbs, cold cuts and sauces!
