Hue city was the capital city of the last dynasty in Viet Nam. Nguyen dynasty from 1802 to 1945. It is famous for 3 things: Education, Medical care, and the last one is the foods. As you know, long time ago, in the morning, for breakfast, emperor had 18 dishes, for lunch 36 dishes, and for dinner, he had 18 dishes. In some important ceremony, he had 54 dishes. Not only eating, but also for seeing and smelling. So that’s why foods in Hue is the best in Vietnam. When you travel to Hue, you must do the Hue street food tour to taste all specialties of Hue imperial city.
Itinerary:
At 5:30 pm, we will pick you up at your hotel in Hue and start the Hue street food tour. The first place is a local family house. Where we will learn how to make some local cakes such as: Banh beo, Banh nam, Banh loc. They all made by fresh ingredients. Family business means: They will go to market every morning to buy fresh stuff to cook for family. Unlike the fancy restaurants, they would buy tons of ingredients and put them in the fridges. Our tour guide will give you detail information of the dishes.
After that, we go to a second place to enjoy Bun Hen- the mixed noodle with small mussels. We will go to the second floor of the family house to enjoy the Bun Hen with a fabulous panoramic views of Hue city and the Perfume river.
Continue walking to another family shop. We enjoy Che- Hue sweet soup- a mixed sweet soup made by many kinds of beans, bananas, coconut meats, coconut milk, and corns.
You should remember to save the room in your stomach because there are many dishes still waiting for you to taste. Keep walking to the dragon boat station to sightsee the beautiful Truong Tien bridge, romantic Perfume river. After a short walk, we will come to a street shop to enjoy Bun Bo Hue (Noodle soup with beef), the specialty in Hue city. It is pretty similar Pho in Ha Noi but following many different tourists. It is way better than Pho.
The last place we must come to enjoy is the number one Vietnamese rice pancakes at the Lac Thien shop at Thuong Tu gate in the Citadel. In here, we will enjoy a wonderful beer opening performance from the owner of the house and the best rice pancake with the secret recipe from their ancestors.
Enjoy the cakes and drink some Huda beers- the famous local beer in Hue. Finally, we will learn how to say: “One, Two, Three, cheers” in Vietnamese is “Mot, Hai, Ba zoooo!
