10 days in Vietnam | everything I ate, healing my inner child & finding food freedom

Wow. i love Banh Mi’s. I can’t believe i get to cross this one off the bucket list! All the places i ate and went are below and here is the link to the e-SIM i use on all my travels abroad: https://try.airalo.com/lindasunyt (use my code LINDA3 for $3 USD OFF your data plan)

my itinerary
Hanoi
↪MẸT Vietnamese restaurant & Vegetarian: super solid vietnamese food w big portions!!
↪Banh Mi 25: mainly tourists- I’d recommend the small stalls on the street with stools where you see locals eating!!
↪Hương Việt: contrary to the google reviews this was my least favourite meal in vietnam. I think they specialize in vegan food. The pho was the worst i’ve ever had.
↪LIM DONUTS HANOI: cozy little donut shop! not the best but super cute!!
↪Leo's Tavern - a hidden gem tucked away in a cozy upstairs flat. the staff were so cute and friendly and danced and sang karaoke with us.
↪King Roti - Hàng Gai: crispy shell and soft fluffy interior w. oozing filling. Served warm so delicious!!

Ha long bay cruise: https://bit.ly/4f6WGy2

Ninh Bình:
↪HOANG CUISINE Vietnamese restaurant and vegetarian: everything was incredible and flavourful and the staff was so friendly! Portions are HUGE!
↪Chookie's Beer Garden: sensational carrot cake.
↪A Tam Coc Restaurant & Coffee: delicious coffee and really good pho! Lots of variety!
↪Mua Caves: a cool experience, easy climb
↪Trang An boat tour: chose this over tam coc (more tourists & expensive), there are 3 routes and we chose the longest, i felt like it was TOO long..
↪Banhmi Minh Khoi - Restaurant - Coffee: pretty average

Hoi An:
↪ Bikini Bottom Express Hoi An: smoothie bowl was genuinely the best i’ve ever eaten. Great American comfort food. Vibes = immaculate.
↪Cơm Linh - Vietnamese Restaurant: best vietnamese omelette.
↪ lantern making class: https://bit.ly/3WmiDl3
↪Buttercup by Rosie's cafe: so cute lots of yummy brunch options
↪The Golden Hands Bridge: recommend skipping, overhyped, underwhelming.
↪Hoi An Heart Restaurant: food took 2 hours to come out. Service not great. Noodles were bland and cold.
↪the espresso station: cute cozy super aesthetic drinks.
↪Madam Khanh - The Banh Mi Queen: so good. I couldnt stop eating it. $1.18 USD?!
↪ Heaven and Earth Cycling Tours - Hoi An ( better than i expected, loved the guide)
↪ Pause and Enjoy Restaurant: good not great- loved the free fruit!

Ho Chi Minh City:
↪Gujarat Indian Restaurant: 100% vegetarian. I licked the plates clean.
↪RingRing Artisan Gelato: below average gelato
↪Pure Bowls ( Acai Bowls ): refreshing!
↪Cu Chi Tunnels (didn’t film): it was educational but i don’t think it was worth the 3 hour drive there
↪Acai Bliss: yummy!
↪War Remnants Museum (didn’t film): very sad. so informative. incredibly graphic. Very crowded. Highly recommend.
↪Pizza 4P's- so impressed. everything was delicious.. The atmosphere is also fantastic.
↪ Ralf's Artisan Gelato: a little pricey but yummy!
