Vietnamese food leans on fresh ingredients, herbs, lime, chilli and fish sauce, favouring lighter, brighter flavours than some of its regional neighbours, with broths, noodles and rice forming the backbone of most meals.
Expect dishes like pho, noodle soup, banh mi, baguette sandwich, and fresh spring rolls, usually served with a generous side of fresh herbs and a dipping sauce. Fish sauce is a foundational seasoning across Vietnamese cooking, and seafood dishes, particularly prawns and fish in broths or grilled preparations, do appear on many menus given the country's long coastline.
