But the real magic happens at the end of our journey, when we will sit down to enjoy lunch together where you'll have the chance to tantalize your taste buds with authentic Vietnamese delights made from rice. Indulge in the crispy perfection of banh xeo (a savoury crepe made of coconut milk and rice flour, stuffed with shrimp and sliced pork), the delicious flavors of Banh Cuon (steamed rice rolls filled with a mixture of seaasoned ground beef, mushrooms and shrimp) and the comforting embrace of noodle bowls bursting with savory goodness. Many of these dishes are rare gems and difficult to find in restaurants. Each bite is a celebration of Vietnam's rich culinary heritage, transporting you to the bustling streets of Saigon with every delicious mouthful.
