Best vegetarian restaurant in Hoi An, Vietnam

in #food6 years ago (edited)

Heck, for me, Minh Hien is the best vegetarian restaurant in the entire South East Asia (minus Bali, cuz Bali is a different world).

If you visit Vietnam, you MUST visit Hoi An.
If you visit Hoi An, you MUST visit Minh Hien. Okay? Even if you are not a vegan/vegetarian!

I've visited Vietnam twice and food-wise, it was really wonderful. Food there is exquisite as they use many fresh herbs, lime and spices to season their dishes. Also, thanks to having been a French colony, they are the only country in SE Asia that sell fresh loaves of delicious bread on the streets, make incredible coffee and also, produce wine that is not so bad! And oh my god, Pho! I could eat Pho for breakfast, for lunch, for dinner for the rest of my life! Pho sure...My taste buds are just craving a good bowl of vegetarian Pho right now!

Once I found Minh Hien in Hoi An, I basically never bothered to go anywhere else. I wanted to try everything on their menu because everything was so delicious, healthy and super rich! The open air restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and the owners are very sweet people. They also offer cooking classes, which I highly recommend, because they are so interesting and so much fun! And you get to eat it all :)

PS: There is this strange custom where the tourists leave their passport photo under the glasstop of the dining tables at Minh Hien. Every meal, we had so much fun looking at all the photos and people's notes. Maybe you will find and recognize mine if you go there :)

What about you? Have you visited Vietnam and if so, what was your favorite food there?

that looks so tasty. i've been to vietnam but not there!! mmmm pho....

Thank you! :) I have love-hate relationship with my travels to Vietnam but def only love for their food!

Why the love hate? We have only been once, up in the North. Had an awesome time, particularly in Hanoi and Sapa. Next time we'll head down south.

We have had completely different experiences in the different cities/regions: met some of the sweetest, honest people in Phu Quoc island, Hoi An and Hanoii, and some of the most conning ones in Ho Chi Minh and Nha Trang.
Would love to make it to Sapa region one day!

It's really beautiful!! I know what you mean. I guess it's like anywhere - some areas are fully of lovely helpful poeple and some places have just got assholes. xx
