Now, most regions of Vietnam have their own unique specialties, but there are several types of mouthwatering street food dishes that you can get almost anywhere in the country.

Pho

Pho is a Vietnamese soup that’s comprised of a delicious broth, rice noodles, meat, and several other ingredients. The dish is cheap, tasty, and filling.

Cha Gio

If you are in the mood for finger food, you’ll hardly find something better than fried spring rolls called Cha Gio. They are made out of round meat and diced veggies that are wrapped in rice paper and then fried in hot oil.

Banh Mi Sandwich  

Banh Mi sandwiches are a great way to have a quick bite to eat in Vietnam. These sandwiches are made using banh mi bread, which is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. In between the bread, you’ll find various fillings like pork sausages, pickled veggies, and various condiments.

Banh Bo

In case you have a sweet tooth, we recommend trying Banh bo. This is a sponge cake made out of rice flour with the addition of coconut milk. They are also known as honeycomb cakes due to their characteristic air bubbles.
