A lot of visitors do not know much about this special and famous dish, so we would like to introduce you about this dish.

Bún chả is a unique food and you can find an unforgettable impression of the dish even you just try once. People believe Bun cha originated in Hanoi. For some reason, it is not available in other part of the country. Previously, bún chả used to be a dish sold by street vendors, rather than in restaurants. A bowl of bún chả is quite simple, convenient and quick, so we can enjoy it sometimes in place of rice.

The ingredients are pretty common. The chả in bún chả always come in 2 types: tiny grilled pork patties (cha vien) and fatty pork slices (cha mieng). The grilled pieces are usually made from belly meat, while the patties made from minced meat of shoulder or loin. They are both blended with spices before they were grilled over charcoal.

The rest of the dish was for bún (rice noodle) and vegetables. A basket of fresh herbs and vegetable including small lettuces, curled shredded morning glory, stems, cilantro, or some combination of minty, spicy Vietnamese herbs accompany the sauce. In the low season of such herbal vegetables, water spinach from Son Tay is used instead – the stalks are selected and split into small strands. All the vegetables are thoroughly washed, but not crushed and crumpled.

The most difficult part in making bún chả is to get the right mixture of sauce. It really is an art to make a good dipping sauce in bún chả. The sauce will then contain all the essential tastes, sour, hot, salty and sweet. Grilles of well cooked pork would be opened and the contents dropped into the bowl of fish sauce. The dipping sauce is wonderfully mixed into a picky brown, light yellow tasty liquid, while the grilled patties of minced pork or slices of belly meat, generally referred to as chả, are put into the sauce. Some chili and pepper are also added to make the food even more delicious.
