HUE FLAVOR

Why Does Hue Flavor Stand Out?

  • A carefully selected street food tour in Hue, rated 5.0 on TripAdvisor with over 260 reviews.
  • A well-organized tour created by a local guide with over 16 years of experience, managing the quality of each tour.
  • A real culinary experience that goes beyond tasting food, exploring local life and the streets of Hue.

It’s good, and busy with tour groups, but for the real deal — as the locals have always eaten it — you have to go ‘poor but luxurious,’ as the local mantra dictates.”  Robert Reid

Hue, the capital of Vietnam during the Nguyen Dynasty (1802-1945), appeals to most tourists for the romantic river and the historical culture sites.  But, “All too often those who do come often miss its greatest attraction – not the royal tombs in the hills up the Perfume River, or the bomb-blasted Citadel in town, but the food”, Robert Reid, a famous guidebook writer, said.

Hue is famous for its rich culinary heritage, with hundreds of traditional dishes ranging from royal cuisine to simple street food. This diversity attracts travelers who want to explore the unique flavors of Hue as well as Vietnamese cuisine.

In the middle of the country, centered in the ancient imperial city of Hue, is a cuisine with a history of sophisticated and complex specialties including pork sausages and fancy rice cakes. Of the regional cuisines, it most reflects Western influences”, written by Correspondent Carolyn O’Neil on CNN Travel Now.

“Also, use your eyes.”Anything that looks good to you that’s hot and steaming and has been really cooked, you’re in good shape. And much of the culture, it’s noodles coming out of boiling water, it’s things coming off the grill — all of the grilled items are sliced very thin and so they’re cooked all the way through, so you’re going to be fine with a lot of these items,” Drescher advises” on CNN.

Now is the time for you to start exploring Hue cuisine to gain your own experiences about street food in Hue Vietnam as well as Vietnamese cuisine.

Customer Reviews from TripAdvisor

“This is a relaxing and comprehensive half day of memorable Hue dishes. Also included is a stroll through Dong Ba Market which can be daunting unless you know your way around. Some of the stops are in the Citadel, and it is a wonderful way to see the neighbourhoods by cyclo. The tour is very well thought out in terms of the progression of dishes, and it is hard to imagine anyone going hungry. So many memorable dishes and places you would ever find on your own or in a guide book. I highly recommend this not only for the food but to see the center of Hue. GO!”
