Taste Exotic Local Cuisines

Street food in Hanoi is an interesting and addictive way to dine (don't get too hooked on it since you won't have it at home and you will end up missing it terribly!). It is literally everywhere and at available at any time of day. There are, however, some popular local areas such as Trang Tien for lunch street food and Hang Buom for night-time snacks. Discover them at your own pace and let yourself fall in love with this yummy street food culture.

Here are some specialties of the capital: Pho, Cha Ca (Spiced Fish grilled or fried), Bun Cha Ha Noi (A round shaped soft rice noodle with very tasty grilled pork served with fresh veggies and herbs), Egg coffee, Young green rice in lotus leaf, Young rice and green bean ice cream, Sticky rice, Mien luon (Noodle made of Ornamental Pepper cooked with eels) and last but not least Banh cuon Phu Ly (Steamed rice powder roll with mushroom, pork and herbs inside).
