There is nothing quite like a vacation in Vietnam for a foodie who always ends up thinking that somehow there was a mistake in their travel itinerary.

This means that in order to duplicate that taste back home, they need to sample it again and again and again. It seems as though there is no end in sight to the amazing ways in which the cuisine continues to delight and it is an assortment of flavors you aren't soon to forget.

Did you say we're going to Hue next year since we visited Hanoi this year? That could be wonderful because we have yet to try those Bun bo Hue everyone is raving about. Beef noodles Hue style?
