🌟 Vietnamese Pho leaves impression at Czech cook show
Pho, a Vietnamese traditional noodle soup, left an impression among diners at ASEAN Cook Show 2024, which was hosted by the ASEAN Committee in Prague (ACP) on May 16.
According to Seasia, an independent and trusted premier source of news about Southeast Asia, in the Asian pavilion, pho is served in three main meals, with its nutrition information published on the official system.
The organising committee also gives special favour to nem, which is introduced as “Vietnamese cuisine” and written in Vietnamese instead of using the popular name of spring rolls.
The official Paris 2024 Olympics website also introduces the dining area, which is divided into six main zones: two French cuisine areas, one Asian cuisine area, one African cuisine area, and two international cuisine areas. All are prepared by Michelin-starred chefs./.
