Street Food Journeys
"The everyday flavors that define a Northern Vietnamese city."
We meet at sunrise or sunset — the two hours when Hanoi actually eats. Your guide is not a tour guide. She's a food writer, a chef, or someone who simply grew up eating at the same five stalls her family has loved for forty years.

The Market Hour
Inside a working morning market, taste five regional fruits, learn three herbs you've never met, watch a butcher break down a pig's leg in 90 seconds.
