Hanoi Food Culture

The Essence of Hanoi Food Comes from Choosing the Ingredients Carefully

Hanoians are famous for their elegance and elegance in every little detail. Even in culinary features, Hanoians also show solemnity and sophistication. The food of this thrilling land can be said to be unmistakable in the countless delicacies all over the country.

Hanoians not only eat just to get full, they also want (and know) to eat well, have fun, and eat beautifully. The sophistication not only in taste but also in the selection of the dining scene, the way of eating, choosing ingredients, seasonal ingredients - what "goes with" that dish, how this dish is eaten, what season that food, even what time is for what food... Sometimes, through small details, both the eater and the cook show subtle features in the eating culture. For example, fried Tofu (freshly made from Mo Village) are hot, fluffy, dipped with shrimp paste, eaten with a few vermicelli, there must be a few Vietnamese balm/mint in order to complete the flavor notes.

Each thing makes a delicious dish by just a little, seasoning just a little, adjusting the water, fire just adding, reducing a little, the whole meal just eat a little ... but to have "a little" it is an entire art, many years of experience are distilled from a rich culture.

Hanoians are elegant and knowledgeable, and have considered eating and drinking as a way of expressing their hobbies and preferences, personality highlights and styles. The delicate and sensitive taste in culinary culture has always been a unique beauty of the people here.
