Many forums and clubs in support of Hoang Sa – Truong Sa and Vietnam’s seas and islands have been established in Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Hungary or the Republic of Korea.

In Europe, the clubs and forums’ members regularly meet and support each other in their daily life.

In March, a club named “Love Vietnam’s seas and islands” was launched in Paris following the movement “All for Vietnam’s seas and islands” that is spreading across Europe. This is the 5th organization established by people who love Vietnamese sea and islands in Europe.

Red Vermicelli: Dak Lak’s Delicious Delicacy

Image
Buon Ma Thuot not only has premium coffee with a unique delicious taste, but also many other famous delicacies such as wine, marinated chicken, fragrant rice tubes, and especially the excellent red vermicelli. Red vermicelli is a popular specialty of Dak Lak. Although there are some similarities with vermicelli in the South, the famous red vermicelli in the “capital of coffee” is very different. It has big, firm vermicelli, similar to Southern beef vermicelli but slightly better, about the size of a chopstick, chewy and crispy. Different from sophisticated dishes like pho in Hanoi, vermicelli with fish in Quy Nhon, bun bo Hue, or vermicelli in Can Tho, Ban Me red vermicelli is extremely rustic, strange, and especially delicious. At first glance, red vermicelli is quite similar to crab vermicelli, but this dish is made from pure crab meat, pureed pork and fat, vegetables, bean sprouts, and of course, boiled quail eggs.
