Overview

The Old Quarter is alive with charming family-run restaurants and bustling street-food stalls, many of which set up tables right on the sidewalks. Sample up to 8 delicious specialties that will make for a satisfying dinner.

While the exact dishes may vary, you can look forward to trying favorites like rice noodle soup with beef, chicken, or pork, as well as sticky rice, snails, steamed pancakes, doughnuts, and Vietnamese baguettes. Enjoy the rich aromas and lively street scenes as your guide shares stories about the ingredients and the history behind each dish. And the food stops are the heroes here. The food stops are what the local Vietnamese would enjoy.

These are not stops that are “featured” on any travel books or “discovered” by “influencers”. These are the secrets to be revealed to you. Please keep the secrets. We don’t want the next time we go here and see hordes of Instagramers and Youtubers trying to claim that they “discovered” it and ruin it for the locals.
