It comes as no surprise that Vietnamese cuisine has been recognized on a global scale. Culinary tourism is emerging as a prominent trend among travelers, further boosting the international appeal of Vietnamese food.

The diversity, abundance, and freshness of ingredients, along with unique preparation methods, have earned Vietnamese cuisine high praise from international friends. Many dishes have become iconic symbols of Vietnam, such as banh mi, pho, bun bo, banh xeo, and mi Quang.

Vietnamese cuisine is more than just food, it embodies a rich cultural and historical heritage passed down through generations. Each region offers its own variations, creating distinctive and special flavors across the country.
