Bun Cha Hanoi (Bún Chả Hà Nội) — Hanoi Dish Guide
Smoky charcoal-grilled pork belly and minced patties in warm sweet-savory fish sauce broth with pickled green papaya
What Makes Bun Cha Hanoi Special
Unlike southern grilled-pork vermicelli bowls where sauce is poured on top, Hanoi Bun Cha serves the smoky pork submerged in a bowl of warm, lightly sweet fish-sauce, vinegar, and garlic broth alongside a basket of cold bun noodles, perilla leaves, and crispy crab spring rolls (Nem Cua Be).
How to Eat Like a Local: Pick up a small bundle of vermicelli with chopsticks, dip it directly into the warm bowl of pork broth along with torn herbs and a dash of chili-garlic vinegar, and order a side of crispy Nem Cua Be (crab spring rolls).
