Nhat Van is a football commentator, currently living and working in Cau Giay district, Hanoi . In addition to her work time, the young girl also takes the time to experience the life and culture of the local people.

Nhat Van said she has not been able to adapt to the weather and atmosphere in Hanoi after a few months of living there, but she is very satisfied and enjoys exploring the cuisine here because there are many delicious dishes such as fish noodle soup and beef noodle soup.

On her personal TikTok channel, the Chinese girl regularly shares videos about her daily life in Hanoi. She also introduces Vietnamese fruits and specialties to her followers in the “billion-people country”.

Nhat Van also received many questions from people about what specialties they should buy here as gifts. Therefore, on this trip back to China, she freely shared the items she bought in Vietnam to bring back as gifts for her relatives.

“I bought so many specialties and useful household items from Vietnam to bring back to China that I filled up a large suitcase,” Nhat Van said.

According to the Chinese girl, the items she bought as gifts were divided into two categories. One was food and drinks, the other was household items. She revealed that most of the items were purchased from supermarkets near her home to ensure clear origin and reasonable prices.

On this trip back to China, Nhat Van bought many items such as: Hai Duong green bean cake, whole bean coffee and ground coffee, peach jam sponge cake, dried beef, dried fruit, peanut candy, shrimp crackers and canned sweetened condensed milk.

Nhat Van said that these are dishes that she has tried and found to suit Chinese tastes. She praised the mung bean cake for its soft texture, which melts in your mouth when eaten. Not to mention, this cake is not too sweet, making it a great match with tea.

As for instant noodles, she revealed that she bought quite a lot, even though China has many famous instant noodle brands. She admitted that Vietnamese instant noodles have a different flavor, so she wanted to buy a lot to bring home to enjoy with her family.

“On previous trips back to my hometown, I also bought many Vietnamese specialties as gifts for friends and relatives. Everyone really liked and praised Vietnamese food as delicious, especially green bean cakes.

I also gave gifts to Vietnamese friends who are currently living in China. They felt very touched because they somehow felt less homesick for the taste of their homeland,” Nhat Van shared.

In addition to the above items, Nhat Van also introduced another item that he really likes and always buys as a gift when he brings it back to China. That is a Vietnamese wooden cutting board.

Nhat Van said that the cutting board she bought was made from rosewood, with a very eye-catching design and color. Many people think that buying a cutting board as a gift is quite funny, but she finds this a useful item that can be used for a long time.

“I love cooking so I can’t resist cheap and easy-to-use kitchen tools. I bought this cutting board in a supermarket, it was on sale so it only cost 16 yuan (over 56,000 VND).

The price is very reasonable and I have used it and found this cutting board to be of good quality,” Nhat Van said.

The young girl also revealed that although the cutting board is quite heavy and can be purchased on e-commerce platforms, she wanted to choose it herself to show her heart and sincerity to the recipient of this gift.

According to Nhat Van, meat, eggs and milk are prohibited on planes, but fish sauce is not. Therefore, she bought Vietnamese anchovy fish sauce because it is her mother's favorite.

She also found that the taste of this fish sauce is quite suitable for people from Guangdong. “I bought a large bottle and a pack of small bottles so that my mother could conveniently give them to her friends,” Nhat Van said.

The female commentator revealed that there were many other items she wanted to buy, but because her suitcase was full, she had to postpone and wait for another opportunity. This year, she spent most of her time in Vietnam, so she will look for and experience other specialties as gifts here.

She also suggested some specialties in Vietnam that are easy to buy as gifts and useful for foreign tourists to choose from, depending on personal preferences such as jasmine tea, cashew nuts, bird's nest, perfume...
