Vietnamese dishes among top 100 crustacean delicacies worldwide

Vietnamese crab noodle soup, locally known as bun rieu and noodle stir-fry with crab meat, or mien xao cua, have been recognised among 100 best crustacean dishes in the world, by TasteAtlas.

Ranking 44th on the TasteAtlas list, the traditional bun rieu is praised as the "essence of the folk" and "the quintessence of simplicity." Along with mien xao cua, which ranks 76th, the two dishes have captivated global palates.

These two Vietnamese specialties, honoured by TasteAtlas, have elevated local cuisine—however humble its origins—onto the world culinary stage.

Previously, other Vietnamese dishes such as pho, banh mi, and goi cuon tom thit (shrimp and pork summer rolls) were also recognised among the best dishes in the world by TasteAtlas./.
