Only in Hanoi! Unique Street Food in Vietnam’s Capital 🇻🇳
Bánh Tôm, Fried Ngan & Old Quarter Flavours

Hanoi is packed with incredible street food, and in this video we kick off our food adventure with two iconic local dishes you can only really experience in Vietnam’s capital.

Stop 1: Bánh Tôm at West Lake (Hồ Tây)

📍 Nhà hàng Thanh Tâm – 43 Phủ Tây Hồ

Our first stop takes us to West Lake to try one of Hanoi’s most famous snacks – Bánh Tôm.

These crispy prawn fritters are a true Hanoi classic. Fresh whole prawns are coated in a light batter, deep-fried until golden, and served with a sweet-and-sour dipping sauce and plenty of fresh herbs. Simple, crunchy, and seriously addictive.

So why are there so many Bánh Tôm vendors in Hanoi?

Because it’s cheap, quick to make, and perfectly suited to local tastes. Prawns are widely available, the ingredients are simple, and the crispy texture paired with the tangy dipping sauce makes it a favourite for all ages. Over the years, Bánh Tôm has become a go-to street snack, especially around West Lake, where famous spots like Nhà hàng Thanh Tâm helped turn it into a Hanoi food icon.

This is proper, no-nonsense street food – and a must-try if you’re visiting Hanoi.

Stop 2: Fried Ngan with Crispy Garlic – Old Quarter

📍 Ngan Ngon Phố Cổ – Dũng Huyền
2b Ng. Bà Triệu, Lê Đại Hành, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam

For our second stop, we’re joined by Danny and Diggy as we head back into Hanoi’s Old Quarter for some seriously addictive fried ngan with crispy garlic.

At first, there was a bit of confusion…
The menu on the wall listed the meat as “goose”, so we thought we were about to try fried goose. But it turns out the bird being used here is actually ngan – a Muscovy duck.

In Vietnamese, ngan is different from regular duck (vịt), which is why many places translate it as “goose” for tourists, even though it’s technically a type of duck.

Whatever you call it, the result was unreal:
Crispy skin, juicy meat, loads of crunchy fried garlic, and big, bold flavours – exactly the kind of food you come to Hanoi’s Old Quarter for.
