following questions. (5 points)
Dear Helen,
I am spending my holidays in Viet Nam. As a food lover, I feel like I am in heaven. Wherever I go,
I can find a food stall. Vietnamese street food is really diverse. It can be a snack like "goi cuon" (an action-
packed salad roll) or "che" (sweet dessert soup). It can be dishes for the main meals of the day. I have tried
"pho" (beef noodle soup), "banh mi" (bread with meat and pickled vegetables), "com tarn" (broken rice
with grilled pork chop), "banh xeo" (savory pancakes served with pork, bean sprouts and shrimps). All the
dishes I have tried impress me a lot. They make great use of local ingredients. Doctors will surely
recommend these dishes because they have lots of vegetables and there are not too many spices. Each dish
is served beautifully as well. I am quite surprised at how cheap the dishes are.
I believe Viet Nam is a perfect destination for a chef like you. I wish you were here with me.
Love,
Tom
