How could we not check it out while we ’ re in Hanoi ?

We were impressed by the high standards of cleanliness and hygiene in the restaurant. You would know why if you compare this stead with Bun Cha 34, lol. In fact, I thought this was the cleanest restaurant I had been to while in Hanoi .
high ceilings with fans meant the home was kept airy and well-ventilated – identical comfortable space to dine in and you wouldn ’ t have to worry about leaving here with the smell of barbecued pork or fastball on your hair and invest .

This was the stallion meal consist of one of every detail on the menu except that we had 2 of the Fried Crab Rolls because they were so minor in size. Everything looked so damn good ! I ’ m feeling athirst now as I ’ m looking at these food pictures !
All of these only cost 104,000 VND ( SGD6.50 ). not the cheapest bun cha meal by local standards but trust me, it will be worth your every dollar and cent. ????

alike to Bun Cha 34, the broiled pork came in both slice and mince kernel patty forms. The smokiness of these meat was just incredibly fragrant. They were besides identical well marinated and tasted in truth flavorful. I liked that the nuoc cham wasn ’ t excessively polluted with char bits from the kernel and the k papaya slices gave a good crunch .

The Fried Crab Rolls looked like bite-sized spring rolls but were actually actual cancer kernel wrapped in beancurd skin. extremely strong crab flavour with natural crustacean pleasantness. Delicious .
right behind the gripe rolls was the Meat Skewer. Layers of pork barrel kernel and onions were skewered and then grilled – every sting was barely meaty and crunchy. The BBQ marinade had thoroughly penetrated the meat, making it actually moreish. must order !

The boastful, adipose tissue and juicy Fried Seafood Roll had prawns in the meat occupy. It was like a seafood ngoh hiang. Best eaten when dipped into the nuoc cham. Awesome .
overall, this was the BEST bun cha meal I had in Hanoi. now I know why Anthony Bourdain had brought Barack Obama here. If there can merely be one meal to have when in Hanoi, it has to be this. not kidding ! Simply spectacular. ? ? ?
