Must-eat food in Phu Quoc Island
1. Small rolled rice noodles
Bún Quậy can be said to be one of the most representative delicacies of Phu Quoc Island. It is freshly blanched rice noodles and fresh and sweet rolls, and the soup is full of flavor. According to locals, eating small roll rice noodles is more delicious with a cup of freshly brewed sugar cane juice. Don’t forget to try this classic combo when you come to Phu Quoc Island! The editor here also recommends a list of two local rice noodle rolls in Phu Quoc Island:

Bún Quậy KIẾN-XÂY ( A-C noodles)
2. Coconut ice
When you come to a tropical island like Phu Quoc, how can you miss the refreshing coconut ice? The coconut ice in Phu Quoc Island tastes very much like coconut milk ice cream, with a softer texture. In addition to coconut ice, many vendors selling fried ice on the road or at night markets will also make coconut into juice, milkshakes and other ice products!
I recommend the Coconut ice cream coconut ice shop below. The store clerk will directly put the coconut ice into the coconut shell, match it with the thin biscuits decorated next to it, and then insert a small paper umbrella for decoration. It is really photogenic and delicious!
3. Peanuts
Another must-eat and must-buy item in Phu Quoc Island is peanuts! Thanks to the unique soil and climate, the peanuts grown in Phu Quoc Island have a unique sweet and nutty aroma, even a little earthy. They use traditional farming methods and almost no chemical fertilizers or pesticides are used during the planting process. It’s healthier to eat! There are many flavors of peanuts in Phu Quoc Island. Some of the more popular flavors among tourists include original flavor, mustard, and chili. If you have the opportunity to visit the supermarket, remember to purchase a few bottles of comprehensive peanut jars that look like Ma Ying-jeou!
