Cuisine

According to Tripadvisor, cuisine has long been an important part of the travel journey. Enjoying food is not simply a taste experience, but also a way for tourists to learn about the culture, history and lifestyle of local people. From crowded markets where street vendors smoke, to luxurious Michelin-starred restaurants, each city on the list offers visitors a cultural journey through each flavor.

Hanoi stands out among global culinary destinations thanks to its ability to blend tradition and creativity. The cuisine of this land of thousands of years of civilization is highly appreciated for its sophistication, elegance and focus on preserving the natural flavors of ingredients. Coming to Hanoi, diners not only enjoy delicious food but also live in historical stories, feel the breath of Vietnamese culture through each dish.

Taste of the Thousand-Year Capital

Among the dishes that make up the brand of Hanoi, pho is emphasized by Tripadvisor as a culinary symbol that cannot be missed. A bowl of pho with Hanoi's standard flavor is a harmonious combination of many elements: clear but rich broth, sweet from long-simmered bones; soft pho noodles but still retain a moderate chewiness; thinly sliced ​​beef or tender chicken; and accompanying spices such as lemon, chili, herbs, crispy fried dough sticks. All create a balanced, delicate whole - a flavor that visitors who have tasted it will find hard to forget.

Not only pho, egg coffee is also a name that makes international diners curious and excited. This seemingly simple drink requires skill in every step. Egg yolks are beaten smoothly with condensed milk or sugar, then gently poured over a layer of rich coffee. When enjoying, the rich taste of eggs blends with the slightly bitter taste of coffee, creating a feeling that is both new and familiar. Many tourists after leaving Hanoi still linger on the unique flavor of this coffee, considering it a memorable memory of the trip.

In addition to pho and egg coffee, Hanoi cuisine also conquers tourists with hundreds of rustic dishes imbued with the Northern style such as bun cha, bun thang, La Vong fish cake, banh cuon, com lang Vong...

Old town

To fully experience the flavors of Hanoi cuisine, Tripadvisor recommends that visitors visit the Old Quarter, which preserves many traditional cultural and culinary values. Here, the small streets are filled with long-standing eateries, where local chefs still preserve the original cooking methods passed down through generations. Walking on the tree-lined streets, listening to the night cries and the aroma from street vendors, visitors will clearly feel the simple yet profound soul of Hanoi cuisine.
