David notes local women are always busy thinking about what to cook for their families, often two or three days ahead. He is impressed by the way Vietnamese women buy fresh food and cook meals every day. “Sometimes I ate fast food when I traveled abroad just for convenience. But I’ve never done this in Vietnam—the looks and smells of local dishes are impossible to resist,” David says.
He says 30 percent of the food’s deliciousness is communicated through its appearance alone, with the remaining 70 percent pure taste.
