The rice paddy plant is only used in Vietnamese sour soup. If you like that, than it's worth a try.
I forgot to mention, kinh gioi (Vietnamese lemon balm) is also a good one to try. It's a really good Vietnamese mint that you can use in soup, salads, and noodle dishes.
I'm not sure what you mean by Vietnamese mint, in the Vietnamese culture, all the Vietnamese herbs they consider mints in a way.
Do you have a picture of the mint you're considering?
