The cuisine of Huế forms the heart of Central Vietnamese cuisine, but one of the most striking differences is the prominence of vegetarianism in the city. Several all-vegetarian restaurants are scattered in various corners of the city to serve the locals who have a strong tradition of eating a vegetarian meal twice a month, as part of their Buddhist beliefs. [[Nam Châu Hội Quán]] is a traditional dining hall. Hue dishes are known for their relatively small serving size with refined presentation, a vestige of its royal cuisine. Hue cuisine is notable for often being very spicy.<ref>Ngoc, Huu; Borton, Lady (2006). ''Am Thuc Xu Hue: Hue Cuisine''. Vietnam.</ref>

It consists of several distinctive dishes from small and delicate creations, originally made to please the appetites of Nguyen feudal lords, emperors, and their hundreds of concubines and wives.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://asiamarvels.com/hue-panoramic-view-ancient-capital-vietnam/#tab-con-10|title=Hue – A Panoramic View of the Ancient Capital – Asia Travel Blog|date=30 November 2017|access-date=8 August 2018}}</ref>
