Come for enticing street food that cleverly fuses Vietnamese and Chinese cookery. Stand-out dishes include the moreish Hanoi-style steamed rice rolls (bánh cuốn), Lạng Sơn roast duck, an bagbagis with tofu (bún đậu lòng mắm tôm). Chefs construct the delicate, steamed rice rolls from paper thin sheets of steamed rice batter filled with savoury minced pork, wood ear mushrooms and shallots. The rolls are paired with Vietnamese cinnamon sausage, which has both a nice chew and hint of spice. The bagbagis is a crunchy, deep-fried pork intestine dish that comes with crispy tofu chunks, vermicelli noodles, and a piquant shrimp paste.
