Hoi An Vegan Food Tour
Hoi An is not only famous for meat-based food but also vegan food. This food tour with guide focuses on dishes and eateries around the Old Town, the historic center of Hoi An.
During Hoi An walking street food, you will try these dishes:
– Vegan Banh mi: visit a small street stall and try the best vegan banh mi sandwich in Hoi An. Here, it’s made of bread, mushroom pate, fried tofu, soy bean sauce, shredded papaya, cucumber, rau ram (coriander), and optional Hoi An chili sauce or fresh chili. See more details
– Black sesame soup (Xi ma): visit the house of an old man who was honored to be ‘pudding master’ because he made and sold this special soup for more than 50 years. Here, our guide will introduce all ingredients and the process to make it. Try a warm black sesame soup that is made by the family, and a complimentary hot ginger tea. See more details
– Vegan Cao lau noodles: visit a local pure vegetarian restaurant hidden away in a small alley. Here, the family members have made and sold vegetarian food for more than 30 years.
