Two Vietnamese dishes among world’s 60 famous foods to try in lifetime
VOV.VN - US-based newspaper Insider recently unveiled the 60 famous foods to try in the lifetime of readers, with Vietnamese dishes Phở (noodle soup) and Bánh mì (baguette) included in the list.
The media outlet suggests sampling a warm bowl of Phở, a Vietnamese noodle soup that boasts tonnes of flavor at Dong Thap Noodles in Seattle, the US. The meal is comprised of three pounds of noodles, meat, and liters of broth, respectively.
Although it is meant for a family of six to seven people, if diners are able to finish the bowl within 90 minutes then they can get a US$500 reward. Only three people have successfully completed the challenge, according to Insider.
Bánh mì is a popular type of sandwich in Vietnam. The inexpensive staple is usually made using pate, bright and crunchy vegetable slaw, fish sauce, and sliced jalapeño peppers or fresh cilantro, the article reports.
The publication therefore recommends Banh Mi Huynh Hoa, a site which is recognised as one of the most famous spots to try the sandwich in Ho Chi Minh City.
Insider compiles a list of the most famous food from around the world in order to determine the top 60 foods everyone should try at least once in their lifetime. Some items, such as Chicago's deep-dish pizza, won't need foodies to break the bank, but others require traveling a little further afield or even to visit Michelin-star restaurants.
Others in the list are chocolatería San Ginés of Spain, snail dish of France, Greek spanakopita, Italian pizza, and Italian caprese salad.
