Delicious Vietnamese Cuisine

Here I would like to share some of the delicious food we had during our visit to Hoi An. I’m not talking of the Vietnamese soup or soup noodles which you can now get in big cities outside of Vietnam but the food which the locals like and which tourists like us have come to love. 

The White Rose is an exotic name for dumplings but they do look like white roses when the super thin pastry is folded to hold the ingredients of minced pork and prawn.

These are steamed in the kitchen and brought up to the dining area where tourists can enjoy the freshly made dumplings.

They also cater to other restaurants that place orders with them. The ladies are specially trained to fold the dumplings so that they look like exquisite white roses.

Another local favourite is the Banh Mi which is a bread roll stuffed with pork and greens. Sometimes the bread roll is white and sliced into half. Then the pork pieces are stuffed inside so that It looks like a burger.

Then there are the spring rolls that Vietnam is famous for. You can have fresh rolls or deep fried ones. Both are equally tasty. I prefer the fresh spring roll.

There are many more dishes which we savored but it is not possible to have them all here in this blog.

Needless to say, I look forward to another visit to Vietnam, just to savor the food once more.
