Itinerary

​Bánh Mì Queen (30 Minutes)

​Start your culinary journey with a Bánh Mì, Vietnam's iconic sandwich. Experience the perfect contrast of a crusty baguette and a flavorful, savory filling—often pork, pâté, fresh herbs, and a spicy kick—at a legendary local stall.

​Cao Lầu & White Rose Dumplings (1 Hour)

​Dive into two dishes unique to Hội An. Savor Cao Lầu, thick, chewy noodles supposedly made with water from a specific ancient well, and enjoy the delicate, translucent White Rose dumplings, steamed rice paper parcels filled with savory ground shrimp or pork and topped with crispy shallots.

Cơm Gà & Chè (1 Hour)

Treat yourself to Cơm Gà, a fragrant local version of chicken rice. The rice is cooked in chicken broth and turmeric, giving it a rich color, and it's served with shredded chicken, herbs, and a tangy sauce. Finish this stop by cooling down with Chè, a traditional Vietnamese sweet dessert soup or pudding, often featuring beans, jellies, or fruit.

Bánh Xèo (1 Hour)

Get a hands-on experience with Bánh Xèo, a savory, crispy, turmeric-stained "sizzling pancake." You'll learn the local method of wrapping pieces of the pancake, shrimp, and bean sprouts in fresh lettuce and herbs, then dipping it into a sweet and tangy fish sauce.

Drinks by the River (30 Minutes)

Conclude your tour by relaxing at a riverside café. Sip a traditional Vietnamese iced coffee (cà phê sữa đá), a strong, sweet pick-me-up, or opt for a refreshing local herbal tea while taking in the charming evening view of the lights reflecting on the Thu Bồn River.
