ENJOYING SNACK FOODS IN HANOI

The best food shop is a common thing to see formally dressed gentlemen sitting in low chairs for their breakfast bowl of pho—an interesting Hanoi eating style. But we are not talking about pho or bun cha, since these great dishes have been introduced to the world many times over. This beautiful city has a lot more to offer those who want to eat like a local.

Pieces of Nem chua are peeled from their banana leaf wrappings, skewered on bamboo, and grilled over charcoal. Customers sit on plastic chairs while eating and watch the bustle of the streets. The spicy, sour, sweet, and peppery flesh tastes especially apt in winter’s freezing air. This dish is especially popular among teenagers, who are lucky enough to remain undaunted by its somewhat oily nature.

Two very popular addresses for nem chua ran are along the very narrow Tạm Thuong (Hang Bong street) and the areas around Nha Chung.

When we came here, diners will be seated on plastic chairs there. Nem chua is to fry in the tray, set up another chair to the table. Sauce was so tiny in the cup! Here is the place to stop the world from many artists to students, students and people working ... Sit nem chua fried food in the "small space", I felt distanced himself from the pace of life than meeting of the society, that in his mind a little peace.

To nem chua fried trivial, we not only enjoy the nem chua characteristic flavor but also be immersed in the old space of a dark alley with quality stock images familiar as the banyan tree, well water from member ...

The second dish on my list of favourites is “thit xien nuong”. The hot meal is typically authentic Vietnamese fast food, easily found in Quang Trung or Ta Quang Buu Street. If you have a chance to visit the Quang Trung location in the afternoon, you should not be surprised by the crowds enjoying their snack food. Fresh and lean pork is grilled until it becomes soft and aromatic. It is a perfect match with toast and pickles.

Unlike the savoury nem chua ran and thit xien nuong, the “banh chuoi” delivers crispy banana-scented sweetness. The banh chuoi is a popular Vietnamese dessert recipe. With the main material is banana, oil (or fat) and flour (usually wheat flour) and other ingredients such as salt, sugar, eggs, honey, butter, or alcohol.

Fried Banana cake is cooked by the method of frying, this delicious dish while still hot to brittleness. It is easy to make, and commonly used from rural to urban, at home or are often sold at bars in pavement, restaurants. Moreover, Fried Banana cake has just fried, soft, sweet desserts or eat in the cold temperature.
