Nested in the world-class Sofitel Metropole Hanoi, Spices Garden Restaurant is known as one of the nicest hotel restaurants in the city. With the focus on Vietnamese cuisine, the restaurant has been delighting its international travelers with the finest of local offerings.
Located on a relatively quiet street in the northwest of the famous Hoan Kiem Lake, the “Madame Hien” is a well-known traditional Vietnamese restaurant, serving dishes that you’ll be offered as a guest at a Hanoian home.
Being vegetarian travelers used to be a real challenge in Hanoi, but it’s not anymore! As the vegetarian dining scene has blossomed in the last decade, and there are more vegan friendly places in Hanoi than ever.
When it comes to pastries, Hanoi has so much to offer than one would normally expect. The city has hundreds of pastry shops and bakeries, and it’s hard to whittle them down to just a handful of them.
Hanoi’s been known as a melting spot of street eats. Foods are served from a cranky bicycle, on the edge of bustling streets full of motorbikes, on sidewalks appropriated by sea of plastic stools, in a memorable passageway a meter wide, and right at someone’s doorstep.
You don’t have to go looking for great coffee in Vietnam. Great coffee finds you. It’s everywhere. In cafes, on sidewalks, at corners, refurbished houses, and on bicycles ply by smiling vendors. Coffee is more than just a beverage, it’s a way of life in this country.
