Time Out reported that Vietnam’s capital city is home to a treasure trove of foodie finds down narrow alleys, up winding concrete stairs and on crowded street corners.
Join the lines outside Banh Mi 25 in Old Town for a barbecue pork banh mi. Hunt for a steaming bowl of northern-style pho down a dark hallway and up a winding staircase into the living room of Ms. Minh at Pho Hang Trong. Snag a stool at Banh Cuon Ba Loc for some banh cuon, a rice paper roll filled with minced pork and mushrooms.
If you eat only one thing: Bun cha is Hanoi’s unofficial, official dish. An addictive umami broth with grilled pork meatballs and pork belly served alongside fresh vermicelli noodles for dipping.
