Sshhh….no chitty chatty, let’s start what you are here for.
6. Peach Iced Tea
Peach season there is typically in summer i.e. from June to August. During this time this fruit is widely available. These are sweet, juicy, and fragrant. I had the best peaches there even in the month of May. Peach iced tea is the best way to recharge yourself in the summer. So if you are there during this season you must try peaches and peach iced tea. We both love iced teas and it is our go-to drink to order. We ordered it at Mi Cay 12 Cap Do in Hoi An to cut the spice from the food but we were addicted. We even ordered it at the airport while traveling back to India.
7. Vietnamese Pizza
It is famously known as Ban Trang Nuong. The base is made with thin rice paper instead of dough. Rather than cooking in the oven like Italian pizza, it is traditionally grilled over charcoal until crispy. It is then topped with multiple toppings like meat, vegetables, cheese, and sauces like mayonnaise, and sriracha. It is a very famous street food there, especially in Hoi An. There are multiple street vendors selling crispy rice pizza in Hoi An Market.

8. Banana Nutella Crepes
There are very few sweet dishes that we tried in Vietnam and it was one of them. It is very popular, especially in Hoi An. You will find a number of street vendors selling this at the night market. It is a must-try dessert while you are there. The crepes are typically made by mixing flour, eggs, milk, and sugar to create a thin batter, which is then cooked in a pan until golden brown. The warm crepes are then filled with sliced bananas and served with Nutella spread on top. It is the best dessert to satisfy your sweet cravings without being overly sweet.
9. Spicy Chicken Noodles
Also known as Mi Cay, it is a Vietnamese noodle soup that is made with thin egg noodles and a spicy broth. It is often served with a variety of ingredients such as chicken, beef, seafood, or vegetables, and is topped with green onions, cilantro, and roasted peanuts. We had spicy chicken noodles at Mi Cay 12 Cap Do in Hoi An. The noodles were sooo spicy but soooo good. Our eyes were watering but we could not stop ourselves from going for another bite after saying done with the previous bite. The quantity they give is huge so I would recommend that you order one bowl for two people.
10. Vanilla Roti
Also popularly known as Banh Vani is another delicious dessert we tried there. It is a light and fluffy bun with a crispy outside and warm gooey filling inside. The buns are fresh from the oven. We tried it from “Kings Roti” in Hanoi. The aromas of the freshly baked buns were the thing that attracted us to the bakery. You can try different flavors like Vanilla, Chocolate, Matcha. The buns were so tasty that we regret buying just one and not being able to go back again to get more.
