Ban Mi Thit

 

This is definitely one of the most indulgent treats Vietnam has to offer, and is their spiritual equivalent to the submarine. It consists of a Vietnamese baguette stuffed with a variety of fillings that can range from pork belly and vegetables to canned sardines.

Pho

 

This is one of the single most renowned dishes originating out of Vietnam. It’s a simple concept that has been utilised by many resorts in Mui Ne such as the likes of Anantara Mui Ne Resort to deliver decadent incarnations of the dish. Pho is basically a Vietnamese noodle soup, commonly made with beef or chicken, containing rice noodles, bean sprouts, basil and a few other ingredients.

Che

 

Vietnamese cuisine has a variety of sweet treats for you to sample as well, but one of the most famous is the very mysteriously named ‘che’. It’s basically a pudding of sorts made with sticky rice and beans.
