Refined, fine, balanced, tasty: there's no shortage of adjectives to describe Vietnamese cuisine.
So why is it still so little known? Phagocytosed by Thai, Chinese and Japanese cuisines, Vietnamese cuisine, the great forgotten of Asian gastronomy, is finally asserting itself among its neighbors. As proof of its richness, the Michelin guide published its first 100% Vietnamese book last June! From Hanoi to the banks of the Mekong, via the crowded streets of Ho-Chi-Minh City, we join Mai Mai, a Franco-Vietnamese chef, on a journey to discover this gastronomy... so that we never mix baguettes again!
