Singer Long Nhật reveals where to find delicious beef noodle soup and sweet soup in Hue.

(NLĐO) - Singer Long Nhật was a guest on the program "Multidimensional Glass," revealing childhood memories associated with Hue cuisine.

According to singer Long Nhật, Hue's cuisine is diverse, and one cannot fail to mention its sweet soups (chè). The best sweet soup shop belongs to Mợ Tôn Đích's shop - a descendant of a family that specialized in making sweet soups in the former Imperial Kitchen.

Singer Long Nhật talks about Hue cuisine.

The shop is located to the right of the Thượng Tứ Gate entrance of the Hue Imperial Citadel. It sells a variety of sweet soups: tapioca pearls wrapped in coconut, sago pearls, mashed mung beans, broad beans, red beans, areca flower sweet soup… Among them, singer Long Nhật emphasized that you must try the tapioca pearls wrapped in roasted pork.

The soft and chewy tapioca pearls embrace the marinated, slightly salty roasted pork, blending perfectly with the fragrant sugar syrup. A dessert with roasted pork filling—it sounds contradictory at first glance, but it is the essence of Hue cuisine, and this dessert is unique to Hue.

"Hue has hundreds of types of cakes and sweet soups, and we always have afternoon snacks at 3 PM," the singer said. In the singer's memory, her ancestral home had vast rice paddies, and every afternoon she would carry baskets of sweet potatoes, cassava, tapioca cakes, steamed rice cakes, and other treats to the farmers working in the fields for their afternoon snack.

Singer Long Nhật also mentioned the famous Hue beef noodle soup of the ancient capital. He said the best versions aren't found in large restaurants, but rather at the street vendors run by elderly women. They carry round aluminum pots of broth, shaped like vases, which stay hot all day, along with various types of meatballs such as crab meatballs, pork sausage, brisket, flank, tendon, and steamed leaf-wrapped meatballs… Notably, despite the hard work, these women all wear traditional long dresses, with a traditional Vietnamese blouse underneath.

Once, singer Long Nhật asked why the old woman was wearing a cumbersome ao dai (traditional Vietnamese dress) while selling goods, and she replied that she wasn't used to wearing short dresses because she felt embarrassed. That's the modesty and elegance inherent in the thinking of Hue women, something that evokes affection just by looking at or hearing about it.
