When it comes to Vietnamese food, many people might think of nem nướng or hot pho. But for me, mr.hotsia, one of the most memorable experiences was tasting the “shrimp wrapped in rice paper” dish in Đồng Hới city, Quảng Bình province, Vietnam. This small coastal town is charming and captivating, with fresh and unique local flavors.

My journey to Đồng Hới began with a train ride from Lạng Sơn city, which I have previously described as a mountainous town with hot weather during certain times of the year.Lạng Sơn Province, VietnamTraveling by train through lush green rice fields and complex mountains made me feel the diversity of central Vietnam's landscape. This area not only has beautiful nature but also hides many delicious dishes waiting to be discovered.

Shrimp Wrapped in Rice Paper – Simple Perfection

The shrimp wrapped in rice paper from Đồng Hới is a snack that looks simple but tastes surprisingly complex and perfect. The rice paper used is thin and soft, wrapping large fresh shrimp marinated with just the right spices. The fresh shrimp carries the natural sweetness of the sea, combined with the aroma of local herbs such as basil leaves, coriander, and finely ground roasted peanuts, topped with crispy fried shallots. Every bite is full of varied textures—crunchy, soft, fragrant, and sweetly balanced.

I, mr.hotsia, remember ordering shrimp wrapped in rice paper at a very simple street stall, but the vendor was very attentive. Both the wrapping technique and ingredient selection were meticulous. Everything was clean and fresh, making me hardly believe such quality could be found in this small town.
