#I'm a big fan of food and I do love travelling. I work very hard to save money for that hobby.

I'm Hien which means always moving forward and always being happy. And I'm really into eating cherry. So my friends call me Happy Cherry. I used to be a guide for Hanoistreetfoodtour for 2 years. I could have a chance to interact with different tourists galore coming from various countries. Then I can introduce our culture and our cuisine to the clients. Furthermore I can speak English everyday which is my passion. I feel so excited when I visit our website I see the reviews from my great clients wrote about their experience with me. It encourages me a lot. From experience of the previous job it helps me to become a tour operator in a Hanoi travel agency now. I love what I'm doing My family and I always welcome all of you come to my house to cook and eat like a Hanoian

Hien was a great host! Not only was she a wonderful host on the tour, but she also made excellent suggestions for places to go that were not on the tour. We went to a number of spots that I wondered at first because there were a lot of other tour groups, but after tasting the food, it was obvious why we (and they) were there! She also did a great job mixing in the tiniest places you could find, with 4 plastic seats on the sidewalk that were out of this world. She was so friendly and welcoming and my wife and I had a blast! Thanks Hien!

Cherry is very friendly and kind. She has good English and we are able to communicate very well. We enjoyed the time at her home and she shared everything she knows with Vietnam. We love the sticky rice cake at home. It was VERY TASTY! Cherry was also helpful. She offered us a lot of advice and told us where to travel. Before we arrive Vietnam, we were very worried that we could not watch the Water Puppet Show. Cherry help us to call the theater and got the tickets for us. :D Thank you Cherry :D

It was an incredibly hot day in Hanoi, but entering the village where Hien lived relieved us from the heat immediately. It was fascinating seeing the process of making the green rice - I was really amazed by how the farmers work the rice from barely edible kernels to a tasty smooth product. Hien prepared all the ingredients needed to make fried spring rolls before we came, and we started rolling using rice paper while sitting on the floor. After that Hien and her mom fried the food while we helped arrange the table and cutlery. The food was great, especially the fried pork roll with green rice. Served with fish sauce, the pork was succulent, while the green rice melted in the mouth, combined to create a distinctive flavour of the village where they came from. Nicely served together with the dishes are bottles of Hanoi beer, which was light and refreshing. Highly recommended for those looking for a more countryside flavour to the normal local Vietnamese food!
