Day of Vietnamese Baguette to be observed on March 24

This plan was set out during an international conference on Vietnamese baguette held in Ho Chi Minh City on October 11 by Thanh Nien (Youth) newspaper, the World Association of Master Chefs’s Vietnam Chapter in Ho Chi Minh City, Van Lang University and Saigontourist.

Dr. Nguyen Cao Tri, chairman of the Board of Directors of Van Lang Education Group, said Banh Mi represents a special part of the local culinary culture, particularly as this kind of food can be found on the street or at luxury parties, making it an indispensable part of the cuisine of both Vietnamese people and foreign visitors.

On March 24, 2011, Banh Mi was officially admitted into the Oxford English Dictionary. 

Since 2020, Google Doodle has celebrated the savory and satisfying Vietnamese street-food, describing it as a smorgasbord of unique flavours that represent a true melting pot of cultures and ingredients alike. 

Through the conference, over 1,000 delegates expressed their hope that March 24 will soon be recognised as Day of Vietnamese Baguette annually.

Vietnam’s Banh Mi Impresses American Foodies

Hughie’s on 18th Street West Houston, established in 2013, is one of many Vietnamese -American restaurants.

Who Is Anton Zeilinger – One Of The Three Nobel Winner Of Quantum Physics?

Image
Photo: Wikipedia Anton Zeilinger is a professor of physics at the University of Vienna and a Senior Scientist at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His research group has demonstrated a phenomenon called quantum teleportation, which makes it possible to move a quantum state from one particle to one at a distance. For Anders Irbäck, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics, “It has become increasingly clear that a new kind of quantum technology is emerging. We can see that the laureates’ work with entangled states is of great importance, even beyond the fundamental questions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics“. Together with Anton Zeilinger, John Clauser and Alain Aspect were also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science“.

Giant calligraphy hat breaks record as largest in Vietnam

Image
The work has been done on the initiative of Dao Thi Cam Suong, a calligrapher from Can Tho. The giant conical hat is made up of a total of 540 smaller conical hats, with calligraphy written on top. Suong has spent 89 days writing the calligraphy and finding connections to produce the finished product. The words written on the giant hat include sightseeing spots in Can Tho, folk songs, proverbs, poems, and the names of various provinces and cities across the country. She shares that the purpose of her work is to honour the beauty of the fatherland through pieces of calligraphy. Indeed, the giant hat is created from 540 small conical hats which themselves represent the country’s 54 ethnic minority groups. The diametre of the giant hat spans for more than eight metres, with the length from the tip to the brim roughly four meters and the length from the tip of the cone to the ground roughly six metres. The work has 14 rows of conical ha...
