MAI XÁ HEN NOODLES – THE TASTE OF RURAL HOMELAND FROM QUANG TRI'S WHITE SAND
When mentioning Mai Xá village (Gio Linh district, Quang Tri), one thinks of the simple hen noodles that are imbued with the essence of the countryside. Not extravagant, not ostentatious, just fresh noodles, small clams sautéed fragrant with shallots, Vietnamese coriander, and a bit of spicy chili. But the naturally sweet flavor of the broth is what makes those far from home remember forever – the sweetness of the river, of the fields, of the sincere hearts of the simple people.
A bowl of Mai Xá hen noodles in the morning:
Soft white noodles
Sweet, firm, fragrant small clams
Fresh green herbs
Fresh chili with a warm spicy aroma
And a spoonful of clear, naturally sweet broth
Nothing fancy, but once tasted, it’s cherished. Cherished for its simple yet complete flavor, cherished for the rustic and warm-hearted love of the homeland.
Those who are far away, remember. Those who try it, cherish it.
Mai Xá has a dish that keeps people coming back – with the authentic flavors of home.
