hotsia kids school break trip 17/26: Crispy roasted duck wrap Vietnam

Hello everyone, I am mr.hotsia back with stories from this school break trip, which took the kids to taste the unique flavors of Vietnam that many may not know well. That is the “crispy roasted duck wrap,” a local dish I discovered while traveling in northern Vietnam. The atmosphere in this province is full of natural beauty and captivating culture, especially in Lang Son province, which I have mentioned in previous articles.Lang Son Province, VietnamThis place is not only famous for its renowned roasted duck but also for local dishes that perfectly combine a crispy exterior with a tender interior.

This time, the kids and I tried the crispy roasted duck wrap sold on the streets at the local market in Lang Son city. I must say, the taste was extraordinary. The wrap is made from a thin, crispy dough similar to fried spring roll wrappers but thinner and crispier for longer. Inside is roasted duck marinated with spices, with crispy skin and tender meat, fragrant with carefully grilled spices and charcoal. I saw the kids excitedly finish the whole tray without a single complaint.

For the kids, this trip was a new experience to closely observe the local lifestyle in northern Vietnam. Although a simple dish, it impressed everyone greatly. Besides the crispy roasted duck wrap, the market in Lang Son city is also full of fresh foods, such as the grilled button squid I previously recommended inVietnamese grilled button squid clipor the flavorful chicken biryani, which is perfect for anyone wanting to try authentic Vietnamese food without much seasoning.

Imagine a small street in Lang Son city bustling with people—vendors, children, and foreign tourists gathering in the market. The atmosphere is filled with the aroma of fresh food and spices. Here, I saw the vendor carefully making the crispy roasted duck wrap and had the chance to chat and exchange experiences with the locals, making me feel truly immersed in their daily lives.

For traveling to Lang Son province, I recommend using bus or taxi services from big cities like Hanoi. Along the way, you can enjoy the scenic views of mountains and the Ky Cung River flowing beautifully through Lang Son city. If time permits, don’t forget to visit important sites such as Nhi Thanh Grotto or To Thi Mountain, which offer stunning views and are interesting natural tourist attractions.

I, mr.hotsia, also want to say that bringing kids to travel in northern Vietnam like this not only offers delicious food but also opens up a wider cultural and lifestyle perspective. The kids get to see and experience the simple yet joyful life of the locals. Additionally, they practice language and communication with people here, which is an experience you definitely won’t get in a classroom.

Finally, for those planning to travel to northern Vietnam, I recommend preparing your body as the summer weather in Lang Son can be quite hot and humid, while the rainy season is much cooler. I have experienced both seasons myself.
