Bun thit nuong (bn tht nng, is one of the many outstanding Vietnamese dishes of rice vermicelli noodles topped with grilled pork. Get the details about this restaurant here: When I was traveling in Saigon, this was one of the major dishes that many of you suggested that I should eat, and so one day, I decided to go in search of a restaurant called Chi Thong Bun Thit Nuong in District - a restaurant that came as a high recommendation from Eating Saigon It took me a little while to find the restaurant, but eventually I could smell the pork down the road, and I knew I was in the right place to chow down. You can always order bun thit nuong (bn tht nng, which comes with the vermicelli noodles topped with grilled pork, but I also like the addition of a fried crispy spring roll on top, which goes by the name of bn tht nng ch gi. As soon as I ordered, the owner took a bowl, and piled in a handful of vegetables, which I think mostly consisted of Vietnamese coriander, cilantro, and lettuce. She then took a handful of rice vermicelli noodles and added them to the bowl. Next step in the assembly line was to go in for a couple of skewers of sweet marinated grilled pork, which had been grilled just moments before, and she placed them right on top of the noodles. After that, she took a freshly deep fried spring roll, and using a pair of scissors, she sliced that up on top too. The final step in my bowl of bun thit nuong cha gio was to add all the seasoning - which included a few types of sauce, one of them being the sweet Vietnamese fish sauce, some other sauces, and a scallion oil, which I think also included some pork oil and pieces of pork cracklings. Once my bowl of Vietnamese bun thit nuong cha gio was delivered to my table, it was already almost seasoned to perfection, but I just needed to add some chili to make it perfect. The red crushed chilies gave it that extra touch it needed. The rice vermicelli noodles were soft and slightly sticky, and I really loved that beautiful mixture of fresh Vietnamese herbs that were roughly cut on the bottom of my bowl. Additionally, the pieces of grilled pork meat were sweet and smoky tasting, and the egg roll was crispy and incredibly flavorful. The dressing was sweet and salty, and the chilies added the kick it needed. Overall, it was a great bowl of bun thit nuong.

That is amazing Mark. But there are two things that I don't like about the dish: First, the meat skewer is very small. The meat is not enough for a bowl of rice noodle. Second, the price is so expensive. I have eaten a bowl of bun thit nuong for only 25000 vnd and it has an extra grilled meatball.

O. K. I was here for business for 7 days and I had breakfast here after seeing this video (fortunately the hotel was close) and I went back another 4 times and went lunch a couple times it is seriously so good. Bits of pork, crispy rolls, so amazing. The best way to start your day.

Mark, you added way too much chopped chillies. You'll be shitting fire. and the seeds are hard on the intestine. But the food is great. I know a Pho place in an alley in the backpack area that is one of the best. Love the food. Good watching you. I know things in the area.

This is generally a noodle based salad and of course eating local is sensible when you're travelling. When travelling, I do avoid globalised food sources and of course over 90% of the time not eat at swanky or stuffy upmarket establishments, even if it's local fare.

Hey Mark, I see that you like Bun Thit Nuong, if you're ever in the Orange County, Westminster area in California, I would love to take care of you. Just let me know I have a little mom and pop shop if you'd ever like to stop by.

I watch a few of your videos and I could not believe how much hot chili pepper you put in your food. If I eat that much hot pepper I think I'll croak. Thanks for the interesting videos, keep up the good work.
