Vietnamese Fresh Summer Rolls Catering

If you're ever in Vietnam, you'll undoubtedly come across the Gỏi Cuốn, more commonly known as the summer roll or spring roll. Legend has it that during a series of famous battles, King Nguyễn Huệ Quang Trung ordered his men to carry each other on hammocks so that one could rest while the others kept moving. Because they were constantly on the go, they needed "mobile" meals that they could eat quickly and without hassle. Thus, the summer roll was born! These days, you'll find the most basic summer roll in most restaurants: boiled shrimp and pork with basil and mint, cucumbers, cilantro, and rice noodles. But the popular Vietnamese snack can be customized for many different palates, ensuring that your whole team will get a meal they’ll love!
