Banh cuon is a term used to describe rice flour rolls in Vietnam. I was wondering along the streets of Hanoi when I decided to pop into a street stall to try one of their offering. I don’t quite remember where this was as I was just walking along and taking in the culture but it was really good.
The Northern part of Vietnam (including Hanoi) has a slightly different varient of Banh cuon. It’s a “rolled cake” which contains pork, shrimp herbs and rice vermicelli wrapped in rice paper.
You can see them prepare it fresh right in front of you!
This version also has a healthy sprinkling of pork floss on top and it’s served with a dipping sauce which has lime, sugar and fish sauce called Nuoc cham.
It costs VND 15,000 for a plate (about RM 2.40) for a plate of four rolls and unsweetened iced tea is on the house.
I love the yin and yang concept of Vietnamese cuisine – they always have raw vegetables and herbs to complement the dish.
The dipping sauce is something awesome too. I ate it without the dipping sauce first but with the nuoc cham it makes it all the more better. Street food FTW in Vietnam!
not too much a fan* of
Sorry to be a bit pedantic here, but banh cuon and goi cuon are quite different. Banh cuon is like chee cheong fun with the southern equivalent of banh uot. The northern variety tastes slightly sourish (don’t know why) goi cuon is like popia with a hard popia skin. More confusingly there is also bobia which appears to have a softer filling.
Third pic – What are those brown stuffs stacking next to the eggs? Looks more like roasted pork skins, but they also look like hand towels on the fifth pic. π
HB, this something so different I never saw before. It seem simple enough to make I guess. I could get the ingredient at any Asian markets in San Francisco.
What I like about it is not deep fried or oily. More healthy dish. I do like ice tea black tea with no sugar or lemom also.

chefmel: Heh! I guess you can call it that. Quite an apt description too. π
However this one is filled with stuff and sprinkled with pork floss so it beats the plan chee cheong fun over here. =D
CT: Hey thanks for the correction! You’re right this is Banh cuon! My bad. It was right on the signboard to boot but I was referring to the wrong notes on my phone. :S
Cheers for that! π
Yvonne: Haha! The one in the forth pic is edible, the one in the fifth pic is not. π
They slice it up and put it into your bowl, if you like it. π
It’s a side dish that a lot of the places have. π
Erica: Yeah, this one is quite healthy considering everything. π
The pork is pretty good and the dipping sauce is AWESOME!
Yup, you can try making it on your own, gotta find the rice paper and that’s it. π
mate, have you seen your girlfriend from the pharmacy lately? am still waiting for you to elope with her.
looks very much like Chee Cheong Fun hehe
rocket: That’s my ex girlfriend. Heh! I was 24 when she was 29. She’s probably 34 and married right now. π
Interestingly, I bumped into someone in the pharmaceuticals line a couple of days ago. =D
Darren: Yup! It’s like filled chee cheong fun. π
With pork floss!
Vietnam wasn’t really a place for me to pick for holiday in the bygone days, your few posts about it have actually triggered my interest to spare a weekend as a ‘rich’ tourist there at least for the cause.
ALEX: Yeah, the currency exchange makes it very confortable on the wallet for Malaysians. It’s a popular choice for countries with higher exchage rates too. π
Plus, it’s a fun place to be. Hanoi. I haven’t been to HCM.
i realise from your posts in Hanoi, everyone seems to be sitting or dining on stools as well as the sellers!
delish!
eiling: HAHAHA! Yes, that is true and one of the interesting aspects of the culture there.
Everyone sits on stools. Except for the high end restaurants la, for common stalls, everyone just uses these. π
foodcrazee: Indeed bro! π

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
Hey – nice blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a pretty nice platform you are using. I’m currently using WordPress for a few of my sites but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?
Cheers for this post, It’s fantastic to see another BlogEngine.NET user. Most people these days seem to use other systems like WordPress, but I think BlogEngine.NET is the best system to use.

Youre not the average blog writer, man. You definitely have something powerful to add to the web. Your design is so strong that you could almost get away with being a bad writer, but youre even awesome at expressing what you have to say. Such a great blog. Ill be back for more.
I love the blog layout ! How did you make it. It’s really good.
Your blog is fine. I just want to comment on the design. Its too loud. Its doing way too much and it takes away from what youve got to say –which I think is really important. I dont know if you didnt think that your words could hold everyones attention, but you were wrong.
The next time I read a website, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whelloning about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.

If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
I admit, I have not been on this website for a long time, however, it was another delight to see such a fantastic items and neglect it. Many thanks for helping making people realize that fantastic ideas.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
