What To Expect
Hanoi
Our evening food tour invites guests on a culinary experience around Hanoi. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of professional food guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, & the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian diets sorry, as there would be 3-4 less tastings. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets, due to the risk of traces & cross-contamination. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!
Hanoi
By dusk, Hanoi's streets come alive with the clattering of pans and rise of steam as tasty food bubbles and boils in Vietnam's Northern culinary powerhouse. We'll venture outside the Old Quarter, starting at St. Joseph's cathedral, where we'll soon find closely-guarded family recipes for iconic dishes, biting into fluffy banh mi baguette, and slurping on a drool-worthy beef pho noodle soup - all washed down with a freshly squeezed sugarcane juice. Discover why Michelin gave the city a food reputation to boast about, from sizzling bánh xèo pancakes and grilled bun cha pork patties, to wok-fried eel cake and crunchy crab spring rolls. Toss your fork over shredded nom bò papaya salad with beef, served alongside translucent tapioca dumplings.

5.00This tour was the absolute highlight of our trip in Hanoi! The food was incredible, being able to know more about Vietnam culture and history through their cuisine was very exciting. Our guide Nhât Ánh made the experience honestly unforgettable. It felt like hanging out with a friend. She knew everything about the history behind every dish and you could tell how passioned she felt about sharing her culture with others. 100% recommend!

5.00We had a great food tour with Tom (Tùng). He took us on a tasty and informative walk through the Old Quarter. Tom gave us a lot of information about food & the history of Hanoi. We could feel the love he has for his city & country. Would definitely recommend. One advice though: come hungry, you will taste a lot of food!
Wonderful Food and Hanoi Tour

5.00Such a lovely experience. Changed my perception on Hanoi and on Vietnamese food. Our guide (Stella) showed us not the food spots but also pointed out fun information about Hanoi. Highly recommend… 15 tastings were all unique and just the right amount of food to be very happy full and not overwhelmed.
