The most addictive is the specialty rice noodle soup with crab, which gathers the products of Hai Phong. The taste of rice noodle soup with crab is rustic, the broth is made from fragrant crabs in the style of the fields.

Being a coastal country, the seafood is fresh and delicious. The square seafood spring rolls are crispy and crunchy, and the locals generously wrap them up with shrimp, crab, minced meat, wood ear mushrooms, and shiitake mushrooms. I have to admit that nowhere else has a spring roll filled with crab and shrimp like this. The meal is always served with vermicelli, sweet and sour fish sauce, and raw vegetables. After eating one portion, you are full. Personally, I often linger to eat all the crispy crumbs.
There is no shortage of delicious food in Hai Phong for you to enjoy!
Take a break to enjoy the spring rolls,
A cup of Hai Phong chrysanthemum tea while watching the city
The cup of tea has a slightly bitter taste, followed by the sweet aroma of chrysanthemum, licorice, herbs, etc. The more you drink, the more you like it, and you will eventually become addicted. Chrysanthemum tea is drunk during the day to stay awake, but if you drink it at night, you just need to order "chrysanthemum tea without tea", you will sleep well, deeply, and when you wake up in the morning, you will feel refreshed and drink another cup of chrysanthemum tea to welcome the new day.
Dessert: Coconut jelly is causing a stir all over Vietnam. Fresh young coconut, coconut jelly, tapioca pearls, coconut milk... all combine to create a sweet, refreshing taste.
Hai Phong baguette, a delicious dish not to be missed.
Associated with my childhood, I used to ride my bike to eat baguettes, the golden baguettes were as big as two fingers, stuffed with pate, a typical Hai Phong pork liver pate, grilled crispy, served with spicy chili sauce. When going out, if you want to bring home a gift, this is a choice that is suitable for children and adults. The baguettes are small enough to be eaten in three bites, and then you quickly eat all 10 without realizing it.
