Traditional Sweet Dishes
Che
Che in Hanoi comes in hundreds of styles, from chilled bowls studded with beans and jelly to warm coconut soups, and it is often sold in glass jars so you can see the colorful layers before you buy.
Banh ran
Banh ran are hot, deep fried glutinous rice balls with sweet mung bean centers, and when you bite one the crisp exterior gives way to a soft, almost molten filling that makes them irresistible on chilly Hanoi mornings.
Banh dau xanh
Banh dau xanh are small, crumbly sweets made from roasted mung beans and sugar, they were popularized in Hanoi as a durable, giftable treat that keeps its flavor without refrigeration.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Pho
Hanoi pho focuses on a clear, intensely simmered bone broth and simple garnishes, and many vendors simmer their stock for up to 12 hours to achieve that deep, savory flavor.
Bun cha
Bun cha pairs grilled pork patties and slices with a tangy dipping sauce and fragrant herbs, and it became globally famous after a U.S. president ate it with a local journalist in Hanoi.
Banh mi
Banh mi blends a French-style baguette with Vietnamese fillings like pate, pickled carrots and daikon, and in Hanoi you will find regional twists that change the sandwich from wallet-friendly street food to a gourmet bite.
Traditional Beverages
Vietnamese coffee
Vietnamese coffee in Hanoi is brewed strong with dark-roast beans and often sweetened with condensed milk, and the city is also the birthplace of egg coffee, a creamy concoction made from whipped egg yolk and sugar that tastes like a warm coffee custard.
Tra da (iced tea)
Tra da, simple iced tea, is the ubiquitous refreshment in Hanoi eateries, and its light bitterness is prized for cutting through rich street food and cleansing the palate.
Rice wine
Rice wine in Hanoi ranges from light, floral varieties to potent home distillations, and locals sometimes infuse it with herbs or animals to create medicinal-tasting blends served in small glasses at celebrations.

Hot and humid in July, not for everyone. Museums were interesting, but the noise and vendors can wear you down fast.
Walk two blocks off the main lake to find alley pho stalls, same broth but half the price and no tourist markup.
Not as clean as I hoped, and some vendors pushy near sites. Food saved the trip though, best bun cha I've had.
Loved the mix of history and food. Early morning lake walks are peaceful, 4-5 days felt perfect to taste and see most things.
Crowded Old Quarter at night but egg coffee and pho made up for it. Expect tons of scooters and friendly chaos.
