Phở

Arguably the most well-known noodle dish and the official national dish of Vietnam, phở is a savory soup made from thin rice noodles and meat in a delicate broth. The history of phở dates back over 100 years, with early versions consisting of rice cakes boiled with beef sold by street vendors in the Nam Định province. Today, variations of phở are enjoyed all over the country, often with fresh herbs, chili, and lime.

Bun Thit Nuong

Pork is a staple in Vietnamese cuisine, and one of the most common ways it’s consumed is along with some rice noodles in bún thịt nướng. Literally translated as “grilled meat on noodles,” bún thịt nướng is a flavorful dish consisting of smoky grilled pork, rice vermicelli, bean sprouts, herbs, and roasted peanuts. Vegetarian versions made with tofu also exist, though most vendors serve bún thịt nướng with a drizzle of fish sauce, so be sure to double-check if this is a concern.

Mì Quảng

Not for the faint of heart, mì quảng is a central Vietnamese dish featuring shrimp, meat, and quail eggs over a bed of wide noodles in a turmeric-infused broth. It’s typically served with herbs and native flowers, which balance the dish by providing a fresh, bitter element to an otherwise heavy composition.

Curry Laksa

Street food or not, this is one of the best dishes you can try in Singapore. This is a noodles dish with a special chili-coconut milk broth. Added to this are fried bean curd and any mix of seafood and fish. It’s eaten as a stew with chopped noodles and is quite a delight.

Mud Crab

Also known as Black Crab, this is considered a southern hemisphere delight. It is a crab stir-fried with black pepper or chili sauce.

Hainanese chicken rice

This is Singaporean comfort food. It comprises boiled rice with cooled down boiled chicken, served with chili sauce, sweet soy dip, and ginger sauce. Very simple but simply mouthwatering.

Durian

The “king of fruits” is one of those ingredients that we either love or hate. In Singaporean cuisine, it is considered a real treat. You can get it in food stalls fresh, cut open on request, and ready for eating. If you’re not sure, ask the vendor to explain the different varieties.

While you might think it’s strange, Israelis love to travel to Asia, and the flavors and colors of these countries have a way of making their way back to Israel.

So, if you don’t want to go all the way to Asia but want high end and authentic dishes, visit these restaurants in Tel Aviv.

Kab Kem

Kab Kem is a true celebration of Thai food in every aspect. From the food to the lively atmosphere, the restaurant does a real service to Thai culture. There are a plethora of meat and vegetarian dishes that use traditional Thai flavors to make everything just delicious.

Taizu

This restaurant brings Southeast Asian food to the forefront with a slightly modern twist. But, throughout the food, you can taste the flavors of each country that is being represented.

The chef, Yuval Ben Neriah, has done extensive traveling in these countries, and his understanding of the palette is clear in the dishes.

Ya-Pan

Ya-Pan is the place to go for a true Japanese experience. The izakaya style of dining which is much less formal than regular Japanese eating is the basis for this restaurant, and the restaurant does a great job of keeping all the authentic flavors but mixing them with an Israeli perspective.
