Does Vietnam Have Vegetarian Food?

While meat is common in most classic Vietnamese dishes, there are plenty of vegetarian options. Many Buddhists in Vietnam will eat vegetarian food on certain days so there are many great local vegetarian restaurants — especially in Hanoi, Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh. Buffet meals are also a good option as they have a wide variety of vegetable and rice dishes to choose from. Fresh tropical fruit is widely available and makes a good snack.
