Vietnamese pho, nem on Paris Olympics menu

Vietnam’s two popular dishes of pho (noodle soup) and nem (spring rolls) have been chosen by host France to serve athletes at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

According to Seasia, an independent and trusted premier source of news about Southeast Asia, in the Asian pavilion, pho is served in three main meals, with its nutrition information published on the official system.

The organising committee also gives special favour to nem, which is introduced as “Vietnamese cuisine” and written in Vietnamese instead of using the popular name of spring rolls.

The official Paris 2024 Olympics website also introduces the dining area, which is divided into six main zones: two French cuisine areas, one Asian cuisine area, one African cuisine area, and two international cuisine areas. All are prepared by Michelin-starred chefs./.
