Greetings
In Vietnamese culture, it is customary to greet others before eating. The most common way to do so is by saying "Chào anh/chị/em" for formal situations, or "Xin chào" for informal ones.
Vietnamese Cuisine
Vietnamese cuisine is popular for its balance of flavors, textures, and colors. It is heavily influenced by Chinese and French cuisine, as well as the country's tropical climate and geography.
Ingredients
Vietnamese cuisine commonly uses fresh herbs, spices, and vegetables such as coriander, lemongrass, mint, and bean sprouts. Meats such as pork, beef, and chicken are also commonly used, as well as seafood.
Popular Dishes
Some popular Vietnamese dishes include:
- Phở: a noodle soup with herbs, spices, and meat (usually beef or chicken)
- Bánh mì: a sandwich made with a French baguette, pickled vegetables, and meat (usually pork)
- Gỏi cuốn: fresh spring rolls filled with vegetables, meat, and/or seafood
Dining Customs
In Vietnamese culture, it is common to share dishes family-style. Each person typically has their own bowl of rice, but the main dishes are shared amongst everyone. It is also customary to use chopsticks instead of utensils.
