Bubbling cauldrons of noodle soup, flaky flatbreads, kaleidoscopic desserts — when it comes to street food, Asia delivers big on variety and flavor. This vast region sprawls across equatorial tropics and mountain ranges, volcanic islands, and frenetic megacities, so it’s no surprise that diversity abounds. Yet there are many similarities, too.

Local people line up along Thuy Khe street from early in the morning to the evening as they wait to purchase their mooncakes. Typically bakers sell two types of mooncake, including banh nuong, known as brown baked cakes, and banh deo, also known as snow skin sticky cakes. The price of mooncakes ranges from VND50,000 to VND80,000 each. According to the shop owner, the peak season for mooncakes is typically from mid-July until the end of August.
