Additional rendezvous of Hanoi’s specialties cater taste buds in US

New York (VNA) – Vietnamese cuisine in the US has come of age in the past decade or so, however, taste buds are still looking for truly authentic Hanoi specialties, especially for Hanoians in the host country or people who fall in love with the thousand-year city’s quintessence of foods.

Located in the heart of New York - the world’s most bustling city, “Ten Ten” restaurant has become a new rendezvous for diners who want to savour Hanoi styled banh mi (baguette), pho, bun thang (chicken vermicelli soup), and a variety of coffee drinks, among others.

Owner of the restaurant, Tran Duc Lam, a young Hanoian man who migrated to the US from 2018, said that unlike other Vietnamese restaurants in the US, the dishes at “Ten Ten” retain the flavour of the Hanoi cuisine, therefore the eatery is the only place where eaters can enjoy all iconic Hanoi dishes with crunchy hot fried dough sticks, poached egg, pate, and char siu pork.

With a desire to spread the love of Hanoi foods, “Ten Ten” restaurant is striving to introduce genuine specialties of Vietnam’s capital city to foodies in New York and other big cities in the US./.
