these days I'm into bánh kột
>>22225882pho is just soup. nobody takes pho people seriously.
Banh Mi with extra pate
I've never eaten Vietnamese food and I likely never will get the opportunity to do so without driving for multiple hours
>>22225890Agreed, it's decent but the hype during the peak was bewildering. Banh mi is fine. Used to get bun thit nuong near me, cold rice noodles with grilled pork and various fresh vegetables. Really nice on hot days.
>>22225890>>22225948Literally only said by Ameritards who eat shitty Philo fake Pho
>>22225882You realize "bánh kột" is essentially meaningless, yes? There are a million variants, some of which you'd just call a sandwich.Starch+protein = bánh kột and if you go around southeast Asia asking for it, they will hand you a different thing every time.
>>22225949Perhaps. What are the odds there's dozens of good ethnic cuisines in the city but the VC can't pull it off outside their home country?
>>22225949>ramen, vietnam
>>22225882>bánh kộtNot even close. Looks like a Brit tard tried to recreate it and failed hard.
>>22225948Do you always talk like a flaming homo?
>>22225957Your first mistake is assuming Vietnamese people are cooking Vietnamese food.
>>22225882Korean and Japanese soup is superior
>>22225965I guess so, niggerfaggot. You're rustled because your watery broth is just ok.>>22225967The waitresses and chefs talk to each other in Vietnamese, it's a safe bet.
>>22225948All the hype pho got, bahn mi deserves. Thats a great sandwich.
>>22225882I love vermicelli bowls
>>22225882Phởk yeah
>>22225882The Viet place I used to go to in Taiwan had an absolutely fantastic salad, chicken and cabbage with a mildly spicy sauce. Lan Phuong on the north coast, IIRC it's around 3 miles west of Shimen (the actual rock arch itself by the beach, not the town/district).
>>22226321BTW, if anyone knows the name of that salad in Vietnamese, I'd appreciate being informed of it. They only had it in English and Chinese on their menu.
>>22225882YesFor me, it’s Bò Lúc Lắc>>22226360Gỏi Gà Bắp Cải You’re welcome, bb!
>>22225882I enjoy a Jackfruit smoothie now and then. But most non-pho appetizers and dishes at pho places seem like just generic Asian food. Spring rolls and egg rolls and teriyaki chicken with rice.
Don't vietnguyens eat like rats, worms, and randomly little wild birds from trees?
>>22226449please stick to your containment threads and board.
>>22225882I had pic related when I was last in Saigon. Was down some alley in Binh Thanh that a bartender had told me about when we were talking about food. Basically just a family shophouse making most of them for takeaway. Very tasty.

anything bun or banh
>>22225960>>ramen, vietnamThere is no universe where ramen is as good as good bun rieu, bun mam, bun bo hue, or banh canh, you fucking weeb.
>>22227190>no you don't understand>this dish that shares 99% similarity to ramen is entirely different and better because I said so
>>22227195the other 1% is all the good flavors ramen is missing
>>22227195>>this dish that shares 99% similarity to ramen is entirely different and better because I said soIf you think the noodle soups I mentioned taste anything like any ramen, you either haven’t had them, or you’re fucking retarded. Probably both.
>>22225949I tried pho several times when I had to spend several months in Vietnam and it was really bland. Every other Vietnamese noodle dish including bun fucking mam was better, to say nothing of stuff like bun cha, mi quang and banh canh cua.And obviously it doesn't hold up in a comparison to most types of ramen (other than assari soy sauce styles like kitakata which are comparably bland).
>>22225882Bánh Cuốn. Steam rice noodle rolls are all over Asia, though, and they're usually fucking delicious.
>>22227208>>22227195This looks nothing like ramen
>>22227301>If you think the noodle soups I mentioned taste anything like any ramen>taste anything like any ramen>taste
>>22225882that raw meat noodle dish is alright, black lab i think its called.

>>22227298god i fucking love nuoc cham
>>22225882Bánh MìBánh Bột ChiênBánh XèoThat's it for the just part.
>>22225882Grilled pork bánh mì from Saiguette on the Upper West Side
>>22227731>nuoc chamIt's addictive as hell. It stinks. It's too watery. And it makes everything taste incredible.
>>22228023the polar opposite of mam tom (although it has its place)
>>22225981i lived with a first generation Vietnamese family for 6 years all the asian cultures are kinda mixed in. they share food and tv once they are in the usa even a lot of music too. i dont know how the older people felt because i dont know viet and they dont know english but the parents that learned english absorbed other asian cultures into their own very easily here in america. like i remember visiting friends of theirs chinese restaurants once and we shopped more at the chinese market than the viet one. maybe the non english ones are more strict viet only kind of stuff but i dont know they cant say anything haha. its also common for restraunts to have thai and viet and chinese things all on the same menu. like a viet family owned place will still have pad thai and mapo tofu a lot of the time here.
