I confess I’m a soup lover, yet another reason for Vietnam to be at the top of my list of foodie destinations since there is no shortage of options day or night. The beauty is although the common Vietnamese soups share the same name and unique place of origin, the ingredients and preparation are different depending on local tastes in each region as well as what’s readily available and fresh. Da Lat is a destination that’s on nearly everyone’s list and the city features unique and delicious food, but, like anywhere, the best hideaways aren’t always easy to find. These places aren’t found in foodie blogs nor in tourist magazines – their success is strictly based on word-of-mouth. They’re makeshift, worn and old, a couple don’t even have addresses, and popular among locals but otherwise not well known. After lengthy searches and comparisons they are the best I’ve found at what they serve. Mi Quang Da Lat Style As most people … [Read more...] about Three great street soups in Da Lat

Many workers hustled to make products at Anh Dao Cooperative in Da Lat City At the fruit and vegetable processing zone on Xo Viet Nghe Tinh Street of Anh Dao Cooperative in Da Lat City, many workers hustled to make products. According to the process, agricultural products are harvested from the gardener, then they are brought directly to the warehouse to be classified according to each product that has been ordered in advance. Each product will have its own way of preliminary processing and packaging, but the common point is that they are all classified from the source so that when they go to the place of consumption, they will limit the need to select products and limit the source of agricultural waste. Ms. Uyen of Anh Dao Cooperative said that cabbage vegetables need to be wrapped in paper to avoid being crushed and damaged when they are transported to supermarkets in Ho Chi Minh City.
