Sweden’s Minister for International Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade, Benjamin Dousa, experienced a cultural highlight during his visit to Hanoi when he was invited to sample traditional Vietnamese street food by the Swedish Ambassador.
According to the Embassy of Sweden in Hanoi, Minister Dousa tried bún riêu cua, a northern Vietnamese crab noodle soup known for its rich and savoury flavour.
The embassy noted that exploring local cuisine is a meaningful way to connect with a country’s culture and traditions, calling food “a universal language that brings people together.”
The culinary experience was part of Minister Dousa’s broader visit to Vietnam aimed at deepening bilateral ties and promoting Swedish business involvement in the country’s green and digital transformation.
