Five Star Gift Ideas

Here are a few Vietnamese food-inspired gift ideas:

1. Vietnamese Cookbook: Consider getting your friend a Vietnamese cookbook filled with recipes for her/him to try out. This will allow your friend to expand her/his knowledge of Vietnamese cuisine and perhaps even learn how to make her/his favourite dishes at home.

2. Pho kit: You could create a pho kit for your friend to use at home, which includes the necessary ingredients such as noodles, broth, spices, and herbs. This will allow your friend to enjoy a delicious bowl of pho at home.

3. Vietnamese coffee set: Vietnamese coffee is famous all over the world, and your friend might enjoy a Vietnamese coffee set that comes with a unique coffee filter and premium Vietnamese coffee. The set will allow your friend to have an authentically brewed cup of coffee at home.

4. Fragrant spice collection: Vietnamese cuisine is renowned for its use of bold and fragrant spices. You could create a spice collection that includes items like fish sauce, lemongrass, star anise, and cinnamon. Your friend could employ these spices to create authentic Vietnamese dishes.

5. Vietnamese language class: For something slightly different, you might consider signing your friend up for a Vietnamese language class so that she/he can learn to speak the native tongue and better understand Vietnamese culture, including its cuisine.

Or you can get her/him a star map with an important date you share.
