Pho and Goi Cuon named among the most delicious in the world
The CNN Go staff has recently made a list of 50 of the world most delicious foods, including pho and goi cuon of Vietnam.
The CNN Go staff has recently updated its list of 50 of the world's most delicious foods for 2025. The catchphrase remains: it is a list of foods "not to eat would be a crime".
Pho - the Vietnamese sensation that originates from the north - and Goi Cuon (summer roll) - a staple from the south - have both retained their positions on the list, now ranking 28th and 30th, respectively. Pho continues to be the most famous Vietnamese dish, gaining popularity worldwide. It features a tender mix of noodles, meat, and the incredible broth that is the soul of every bowl.
Meanwhile, Goi Cuon is a fresh wrap filled with shrimp, vermicelli, pork, and a variety of herbs. While it can be bland on its own, the dish truly shines when paired with a special peanut sauce, enhancing a divine hurricane of flavors. Today, Pho is widely available across the globe, but the northern Vietnamese palate is still somewhat reserved when it comes to the southern delight named Goi Cuon. This dish continues to be somewhat harder to find in the northern regions compared to its robust presence in the southern provinces.
Currently, the United States leads the spotlight with the most representatives on the list, boasting 7 entries. Thailand takes the grand prize with its Massaman curry. Having received over 21,517 likes to date, the CNN Go web article has faced criticism for its perceived lack of geographical diversity in the food selections.
