Vietnamese dishes among top 100 best breakfasts in the world

Banh cuon (steamed rice crepes) and bo kho (stewed beef) have been named among the top 100 most delicious breakfasts in the world. But Vietnamese cuisine has many more tasty dishes to captivate diners all day long.

Vietnamese cuisine has again been featured recently in the international press. Two traditional dishes well-known to Vietnamese people—bo kho (stewed beef) and banh cuon (steamed rice crepes)—have found their way onto a list of the 100 most delicious breakfasts in the world, according to Taste Atlas, a culinary website considered the traveler’s blueprint for global food and drink.

Known for being extremely diverse with unique flavors, this is not the first time Vietnamese cuisine has made it onto international lists. Thien Minh Group (TMG), one of Asia’s leading tourism groups, is passionate about promoting tourism in Vietnam to the world. We’re pleased to introduce readers to some of Vietnam’s most delicious offerings.

Diverse cuisine

The Spice Viet Restaurant chain can be found in all three regions of North, Central, and South Vietnam, taking visitors on an exciting culinary adventure to each region of the country.

If Spice Viet Hanoi at Flower Garden Hotel is known for its immaculate presentation and authentic Hanoian flavors, considered the quintessence of Northern cuisine, then Spice Viet Hue at ÊMM Hotel Hue showcases the sophistication of royal cuisine mixed with a touch of street style, injecting the flavors of the land of the Perfume River and Ngu Mountain into each dish.

Continuing on the journey to discover Vietnamese cuisine, Hoi An is a can’t-miss destination for those who love Vietnamese food. The flavors of Hoi An are memorable for their rustic simplicity while still being flavorful and authentic. All of these dishes can be found at Spice Viet Restaurant at ÊMM Hotel Hoi An, located in the heart of this heritage city.

Further south, the chefs at Spice Viet at ÊMM Hotel Saigon aim to please with an extensive range of dishes featuring bold, slightly sweet flavors, mirroring the open and sweet nature of the people of southern Vietnam.

The best quality

In addition to making each dish a feast for the eyes and taste buds, TMG member restaurants always prioritize using locally sourced ingredients to ensure the quality of each dish. A typical example is the 5-star TUI BLUE Nam Hoi An beach resort located on beautiful Tam Tien Beach in Quang Nam province.

The spacious resort has transformed empty plots of land by the sea into organic vegetable gardens, providing herbs and vegetables packed with nutrients for the talented chefs to prepare premium dishes at the resort’s dining venues, including The Restaurant, Lemongrass, and Green & Grill.

Unique experiences

One of the best feelings in the world for people who appreciate food is when the flavors of a wonderfully prepared dish dissolve on the tip of the tongue. For that reason, TMG member restaurants are constantly looking to innovate, inventing new flavor combinations so that diners can look forward to something different each time they dine with us.

If you visit the riverside city of Can Tho, you definitely should not miss the street food buffet at Victoria Can Tho Resort. With more than 30 dishes served at food stations, street carts, and even canoes, accompanied by traditional folk music, diners are treated to a complete culinary and cultural Mekong Delta experience.

If visiting Nui Thanh in Quang Nam on weekends, make sure to head to TUI BLUE Nam Hoi An for the BBQ Buffet Dinner at the Green & Grill Restaurant on pristine Tam Tien Beach, one of Vietnam’s prettiest beaches. Here, diners can savor sumptuous cuisine while listening to live music performed by local and international bands.

In Hoi An, Victoria Hoi An Beach Resort & Spa puts on the Hoi An Market Buffet every Wednesday night and BBQ Buffet on Saturday night, perfect for those who love a slice of local culture with their meals. Diners are invited to get a custom message from a master calligrapher or take in traditional Vietnamese dance performances for a truly memorable evening.
