This half-day experience led by a local foodie and former MasterChef contestant allows insight into the traditional eating habits and tastes of Hanoians as well as local culture.
In Hanoi, street food is a vital part of local life. Take a walk to discover the city's diverse flavours. Start with pho cuon, a fresh spring roll made with steamed rice paper and beef. Learn from the chef about its preparation. Then, explore a local market to experience the array of dishes available. Identify fresh ingredients with the chef and try banh cuon, a savoury pancake filled with seasoned pork. Next, taste nom, a mixed salad of beef and papaya, while sitting on the tiny plastic chairs locals use. Finish with desserts like flan, coconut ice cream, and che, a sweet soup. Lastly, hunt for seasonal fruits before returning to the hotel.
