Description
Grilled pork (both patties and sliced belly), served in a diluted nước chấm broth, eaten with cold rice vermicelli and a large plate of fresh herbs and lettuce. Bún chả is the quintessential Hanoi lunch — the pork is grilled over charcoal at a very high temperature so the exterior caramelises and chars slightly while the interior remains juicy, and the combination of the warm, savoury-sweet broth with the cool noodles and fresh herbs is one of the definitive Vietnamese flavour experiences.
