With more than 90 participating foreign embassy and diplomatic agency booths the event provided an excellent opportunity for ASEAN countries to showcase their distinctive cuisine to international friends. |

At the event, exhibitors introduced traditional Vietnamese cuisine including such delicacies as spring rolls, banh mi, and the ever so popular Hanoi beer, |
 |
|
as well as Khao cake and Nga Hooc candy, |
 |

and Indian food. |

Palestinian men chatted with customers while |
 |
|
those at the Cuban booth decorated it with peach trees |
 |
 |
|
and other delicious foods at inexpensive prices. |

A foreigner was very excited to join the festival. |

Goldmalt beer and hotdogs were a true hit, |
 |
|
but not as popular as beautiful girls wearing ao ba ba (Vietnamese silk ensemble) serving unique Vietnamese tea. |
