Day 01
Hanoi Street Food Discovery
- 11 AM or 5 PM - Get picked up from your hotel or meeting point. After collecting all the members, our guide will present some Vietnamese greetings and basic phrases during the tour so that we can feel local life.
- Our tour guide will also ask whether any member of the group has food allergies before starting the tour and will introduce you to Vietnamese cuisine, Hanoian history, and culture along the way.
- Today's topic is street food and eating like a local, so our restaurants or food stores are mainly on the street side, on corners, or even in alleys. They are all tasty and well selected - places you might miss if you go by yourself.
- We will have a chance to try a variety of local street foods and drinks such as Bún chả (grilled pork with noodles), Phở bò, gà (beef or chicken noodle soup), Bún ốc (snail noodle soup), Bánh cuốn (steamed rice paper rolls), Bánh gối (pillow cake), Nem rán (fried spring rolls), Bánh tôm (shrimp cake), Bánh Mỳ (Vietnamese sandwich), Chè (sweet gruel soup), Bánh Bao (Vietnamese dumpling), Bánh khoai, chuối (sweet potato and banana cake), Hoa quả dầm (mixed fresh fruit), Bia Hơi (fresh beer), Trà đá (iced tea), and Café trứng (egg coffee).
- The tour will end at Hoan Kiem Lake or anywhere convenient for tourists to return, and tour guides will show them how to get back to their hotels or hostels.
