Vietnamese food has always been one of my favourite cuisines and this Hanoi eat-venture had really given me a completely new level of understanding/appreciating what the essence of the Vietnamese food culture was about. Truly inspiring. I have so many ideas running in my head now, that I’m going to try recreating these dishes in my kitchen and I will of course share the recipes with all of you later on.
My Hanoi travel series had stretched well over 2 months’ worth of blog posts. And I thought it would be helpful to do a recap on all the drool-worthy eats I had while in Hanoi as well as the best places that serve up these dishes. For those of you who are considering a holiday in Hanoi, read on so you can start planning your food-hopping adventure. 😉

Almost getting hopeless, the friendly staff of Viet Garden were so kind to let me in. I was served a delicious pumpkin soup and fresh spring rolls, finishing with a creamy matcha brulee. Yummy! Thank you Ha Phuong for welcoming me and being so kind and friendly. Super recommendable!

Very friendly atmosphere that you can enjoy!
The hospitality of owners is on so high level, that you don’t want to go away!
The snakes, that we eated were good, one was boiled, another - fried.
I like’d fried! Someone of our company - boiled.
However - definitely the best restaurant where to taste snakes!
Hope to come back once again✌

They made from rice powder, the rice paper very thin and soft, it easy to eat,
The food here was really delicious. It is a Vietnamese dish that they eat in the very north! The Banh Cuon were filled with lots of meat and the soup was very tasty. I also love the Giò! Great food and really lovely staff!

Pho Bat Dan on the assumptions that if people are prepared to wait to get served and the majority of the customers are local then it must be a good place. We were not wrong. Excellent Beef Pho (they also serve other Pho). Do not be put off by other reviewers. Yes, it can feel intimidating to grab a corner of someone’s table and squeeze.

Poke has a great location- directly at Hoan Kiem Lake. The entrance is a little tricky to find. A small sign indicates the way. The restaurant has a super nice interior design and if you are lucky enough to catch a table on the terrace you can even overlook the lake.

You need to go through a cloth shop on the first floor, then take a stair. I love the story of this old shop. It's really amazing to know that this shop has opened for such a long time and still keep their stable price for drink. If you lucky, you will get a table on the balcony which is opposite to the lake.

This pho restaurant that was located very near to our hotel was always packed with customers. In fact, it was probably one of the very few restaurants in the Old Quarter that would have queues of people everyday. Their noodles are in perfect texture, veggies and meats are extremely fresh.
chilli and fresh garlic in the table.

This is the noisy street at night. Friends will come here to drink after working day or there are many pubs and bars on this street so you can have a crazy night with friends there. This is one of the must-see places I highly recommend to visit in Hanoi.

The reason why Pho Thin Lo Duc attracts visitors because of its special flavor that nowhere else. Beef of noodle dish here is not dipped but brought to fry quickly on a large pan with enough spices, garlic and onion, and then freshly added to the bowl. Therefore, not only is the meat fragrant, rich, the soup is still quite good.

We came here on a food tour, so we only got to sample the bahn mi, but it was great, and I definitely wish we had time to come back so I could try more of the menu. They have multiple locations near each other, and there's a good chance one of them will have a short (or nonexistent) line. Worth a stop for a sandwich and a popsicle!
