Overview

This tour focuses on less known food than pho and banh my. Meeting point (walk distance around the old quarter) will be provided before the tour.

We walk and enjoy food around Hanoi Old Quarter for 3 - 3.5 hours, out of the beaten track, where we may sit on small plastic chairs and use chopsticks like local people. Unlike big cities all around the world, street food in Hanoi is not just hot dog carts and pretzel stands. You will try around 7 - 8 most typical and authentic dishes of Hanoi cuisine cooked by skillful chefs in local restaurants. The thing is most of those places are in small alleys, on the sidewalk or hidden houses, even without any signs, hard to find for tourists.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
- Meat is used in many Vietnamese dishes, there will be a lot of restriction for strict vegetarians. There are more options if you can eat fish, shrimp and fish sauce.
