Hanoi, Vietnam – Hue, the former imperial capital of Vietnam, has secured a coveted spot on the “World’s Best Food Cities 2025” list, an annual ranking published by Global Culinary Network (GCN). The recognition solidifies Hue’s position as a must-visit destination for gastronomic travelers.
The city, already famous for its rich history and elaborate imperial court cuisine, was praised by GCN critics for its unique balance of sophisticated flavors, meticulous preparation, and diverse street food culture. Signature dishes like Bún Bò Huế (spicy beef noodle soup) and the delicate Bánh Bèo (steamed rice cakes) were highlighted for their authentic complexity.
“Hue offers an edible history lesson,” stated GCN’s lead critic. “It is where street food meets regal tradition. Its ranking is well-deserved, showcasing a culinary heritage unmatched in Southeast Asia.”
This honor is expected to significantly boost culinary tourism, attracting global attention to the central Vietnamese region.
