🇫🇷 🇻🇳 Host country France has chosen two Vietnamese dishes to serve athletes at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The Paris 2024 Olympic Organizing Committee has officially announced the menu for athletes participating in the world's largest sporting event, including two familiar Vietnamese dishes (pho and spring rolls).
Notably, in the Asian pavilion, pho is the "Soup of the day" (soup of the day), served in 3 main meals. The nutritional information of the dish is also published on the official system, helping participants to refer to it.
Not only that, the organizing committee also gives special favor to the dish (NEM) when introducing it as "Vietnamese cuisine" instead of using the previous popular names such as "Spring Roll" or "Chinese Spring Roll". 🍜
