Nissin's Instant Vietnamese chicken and coriander glass vermicelli noodles

Glass vermicelli is not often a product in cup noodles so thats why I tried it.

Overall I found the taste and smell very plastic.

The vermicelli took ages to soften and it was very chewy.

7-11's exclusive Fried Vietnamese rice vermicelli with chicken




However 7-11's exclusive one looked like it was going to be delicious from the poster.
It looked like a thai dish because of the lime and the redness of the noodles.

After I had microwaved it, I was surprised how nice it tasted. It was rich in fish sauce and seafood tastes. 
The ingredients I could taste and were listed on the label were: Onion, cabbage, egg, carrot, chicken, red chilli, shrimp oil, fish sauce, shallot, thai basil, chicken powder.
The taste reminded me of the Filipino palabok.

Ingredients
Not only could they be tasted, you could physically see the julienne carrots, onions, chicken, shallots, egg and thai basil!

I do not know much on Vietnamese food because the ones I have tried locally are too localized and did not taste nice.
Hence I have not really made an effort to try other places.

Vietnamese Bahn Phu The



Got these as a soeuvenir from some friends that came back from Vietnam recently.
I liked the leaf wrapping which was made from one long leaf folded into a square.
The taste was nice and coconutty with some yellow bean in the middle.
This particular one is called , "husband and wife cake"; a sweet cake made of rice or tapioca flour and gelatin, filled with mung bean paste; also spelled bánh xu xê).
