I will introduce to you a very popular noddle soup of Viet Nam, BUN BO HUE. This is also my favorite Vietnamese cuisine. We usually have it for breakfast.
You can see the origin of this cuisine in its name, Hue, which is an ancient city in the middle of Viet Nam. The dish contains rice vermicelli and beef. Bun means rice vermicelli and Bo means beef. Its special flavour is a perfect combination of fermented shrimp sauce (especially Hue shrimp sauce), lemongrass, pineapple and of course, beef. Some people just simply use sugar and may skip the pineapple but that is one of the most vital spices. The sweet flavour from sugar is not strong and pleasant enough.
Bun Bo Hue is commonly served with a bunch of vegetables (thinly sliced water spinach, banana blossom,mint, basil, etc)
A bowl of Bun Bo Hue normally costs 25,000vnd-30,000vnd. In Sai Gon, the popular brand for this cuisine is “Bun Bo Song Huong”.
Enjoy!
