Running with Pho De Nhat – The journey to spread the essence of Vietnamese pho

Pho is not only a familiar dish to every Vietnamese, but also a cultural symbol containing history, memories and national spirit. The value of Pho goes beyond culinary value, becoming a source of pride and a cultural bridge between Vietnam and international friends.

Pho heritage spreads in the footsteps of Vietnamese people

Since the end of the 19th century, Pho was born as a simple dish for workers, then gradually "evolved" into a typical breakfast dish of Hanoi and spread throughout Vietnam. With the development of society, Pho has become increasingly diverse in its preparation methods - from traditional Pho soup to modern variations - and then become the soul of Vietnamese cuisine .

From the quintessence of Vietnamese cuisine, pho has reached the world , being listed in the Oxford Dictionary in 2007 as a national pride. "Running with Pho De Nhat" is the journey Acecook Vietnam has taken to honor that value - spreading the quintessence of Vietnamese pho to friends around the world.

Running with Pho De Nhat – continuing the quintessence of Vietnamese cuisine

From a simple Vietnamese dish, pho has grown to become a global culinary icon, but for Vietnamese people, it is still a familiar hot bowl of pho every morning, reminiscent of the sound of running shoes around the lake and the fragrant aroma on the street corner. These seemingly simple habits are the way today's young generation connects with the traditional lifestyle of their ancestors.

Running is not only a way to exercise, but also a way to express the spirit of initiative, dynamism and preserve Vietnamese culture in a modern way. The combination of running and pho is meant to be a bridge connecting the youthful spirit of sports and traditional culinary values ​​- where national pride is continued through every step and every bowl of pho that has been simmered for 12 hours with real bones and real meat .

In that spirit, Acecook Vietnam accompanies the community through the program "Run with Pho De Nhat - Proudly spreading the essence of Vietnamese pho" , an initiative to encourage a healthy lifestyle, connect generations and spread positive energy. More than a sports and cultural event, this is also a journey of nearly 30 years of Acecook Vietnam accompanying pho - continuing to preserve, honor and bring the essence of Vietnamese pho to the world.

"'Running with Pho De Nhat - Proudly spreading the essence of Vietnamese pho' is an activity with special meaning connecting heritage and modern life. We hope that every step today will be the beat of Vietnamese pride, connecting generations in the spirit of healthy living and loving Vietnamese culture. With a bowl of pho cooked from 12 hours of bone stew - real meat, Acecook Vietnam believes in the mission of bringing Vietnamese pho to the world, becoming a global intangible cultural heritage", shared a representative of Acecook Vietnam.
