On August 18, three Hanoi specialties—banh cuon (steamed rice rolls), cha ca La Vong (grilled fish), and the Bat Trang feast—were recognised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism as national intangible cultural heritage. These dishes, admired for both taste and artistry, highlight the sophistication and cultural depth of Hanoi's gastronomy.

Renowned culinary site TasteAtlas has ranked Hanoi’s La Vong Grilled Fish 3rd among the 100 best seafood dishes in Asia, with a rating of 4.6/5 stars.

Vietnam’s capital city of Hanoi has topped the list of the Best Food Destination 2024 voted by readers of the world's largest travel guidance platform TripAdvisor.
