Vietnam

Vietnamese cuisine is fresh, vibrant, and known for its balance of flavours—salty, sweet, sour, and spicy. Key dishes include pho, a fragrant noodle soup with herbs and meat, and banh mi, a French-inspired baguette sandwich filled with meats, pickled vegetables, and herbs. Goi cuon (fresh spring rolls) and bun cha (grilled pork with noodles) are also popular. Vietnamese food emphasizes fresh ingredients like herbs, lime, and fish sauce, creating dishes that are light yet full of flavor, reflecting the country’s rich culinary heritage and connection to its natural landscape.
