Having Singaporean and Malaysian food in Hanoi may seem like an odd choice but that’s part of the perks of dining in Southeast Asia.
From clay pots and curries to noodles and vegetarian, their menu is pretty easy to navigate for folks with a hefty appetite. If you’re new to this category of dishes, everything from the flavorful Malaysian nasi lemak and mie goreng to spicy Singaporean chilli crab make fantastic introductions.
