Asia Finest Discussion Forum > Asian Culture > Vietnamese Chat

My school is having an international night on March with international dances and international buffet. As the president of Vietnamese club, I need to organize a Vietnamese dance and a Vietnamese buffet. So which Viet food would you recommend me to have in this buffet?

(P/S: Pho doesn't work embarassedlaugh.gif )

Thit cho' 7 mon' SHOCKED.gif =D jk

Maybe Eggrolls, Springrolls, Bun Thit Nuong, Com chien duong chau / ga` . For dessert if possible -> che`dau trang, dau do, suong sa hot luu, sinh to mit/ sau rieng / bo . Quick, cheap and easy to make, can be done at home and brought to school for buffet.

Not trying to sterotype us icon_smile.gif, but eggrolls work fine for me most of the time. Some lettuce or salad will also be good.

Seriously, from what I've seen at these events, there's always eggrolls. If you want to get adventurous, have goi du du. biggthumpup.gif

If you're lazy, just bring Lee's Sandwiches. embarassedlaugh.gif

are you guys talking about the "goi cuon" nem nuong? because it's my favorite too icon_wink.gif

I think egg roll is more associated with Chinese than with Vietnamese (besides our cha gio isn't exactly like the chinese egg roll that white people know of), so it's out of the list.

I like the dessert recommendation. They'd like che and sinh to, right?

How about bo la lop? What do you guys think?

@AFHarmony: I'm not the only one, but I'm the main supplier of the food embarassedlaugh.gif

spring rolls and xôi usually go well, if ur really keen make some gỏi chân gà ..chè or sinh tố are nice beverage , i say get some chôm chôm if its no biggie

oh I love Bo La Lop. You can make Chicken salad vietnamese style, Goi Bap Cai thit ga. It's kinda like cole slaw.

Check the ad section in the local Vietnamese newspapers.
Call local Vietnamese temples, or Vietnamese elderly association for help.
Quick, simple, but pricey way is ordering from any Vietnamese restaurants - don't forget to ask for a discount.

Spring rolls is a general word, the real name is "les rouleaux imperial des Vietnamiens" or imperial Vietnamese rolls, always one of the favourite foods at any potluck meals. Fresh rolls (goi cuon), fried noodle, fried rice, and "goi tron", etc. are also suitable.

Good luck!

Get your friends together and make them. It's pretty easy to make.

Girls these days...I tell you. Can't cook but sure can eat.
