Food in Vietnam


Although we never had a bad meal in Vietnam, in fact all our meals were from 8-10, we missed the spices. One thing we were convinced of was, that pretty much all South East Asia indulges in spices. Not Vietnam! I know Thais are literally nuts when it comes to chilli, but Vietnamese chilli is even weaker that Hungarian paprika which is pretty much the European Standard for spicyness. Nevertheless, you gotta try the PHO BO and PHO GA (noodles) and the absolutely delicious fried bamboo (forgot how it's called).

More on vietnamese food later with some of our hottest bakery picks.
