General information

Destination
Da Nang, Vietnam

Program details

As the sun begins to set, set off on a food adventure as you walk through local cafes, food stalls, markets, and restaurants! First up – is a local bakery that has been making the tastiest banh mi in town for over twenty years. They use the freshest local ingredients and are famous for their banh mi, a scrumptious sandwich that will fire up your taste buds and get them ready for the flavours ahead!



From one local fave to another, next, we’ll join locals at a small eatery, taking a seat on the ubiquitous small plastic chairs and sampling hot and crunchy banh can crackers. Tasty BBQ pork rolled with rice paper and fresh herbs. Served with typical soya dipping sauce, this dish is one of the highlights of the local food scene and an absolute must-devour.



Our food tour of Hoi An continues into the atmospheric heart of the city as we head straight for the central market. What awaits us is there are hundreds of street hawkers and food stalls selling a staggering array of local produce, including fresh noodles, sweet jelly, seasonal fruits, and live seafood. Your knowledgeable local guide will walk you through the colourful array of ingredients, filling you in on the most popular dishes in Hoi An and the significance of these foods to the traditional culture of central Vietnam.



From here, we’ll dig even deeper into the local food scene, passing through a maze of tiny alleys to emerge at one of our fave (secret) restaurants in Hoi An, where we’ll sample two of Hoi An’s specialities: Cao Lau local noodles with pork and nice wonderful sesame and peanut hot milk, or you may get another choice of Chicken rice instead.



Believe it or not, there’s more food to come! We’ll finish our Hoi An food adventure at a local hideout bar in the town where you will have a chance to taste the local infused sake and reflect on your fave dishes of the evening (if you can pick!).
