This is not a city that does not sleep "playing your worms, coming home early in the morning" or why invite each other to have breakfast at such a weak time in the morning. With the mindset of a typical big city that wakes up late and has breakfast late, I was extremely surprised when my friend woke me up to go eat bread at a place with many Hu tieu - bread restaurants, not to mention a lot of it.
But anyway, as Co Long has summarized "people in the forest, the body is united in the sky", it is like having come to the land of a foreigner, the decision is up to you. Therefore, every way you have to take a shower and then rush down to the sidewalk to the windy wind tomorrow morning, your friend is feeling impatient with a fever.
Before he could open his mouth, he was criticized by a "storm" that made his face dark: "This is a problem. If I'm late, it's just a bad deal." Ben pretended to know his mistake and asked: "There is nothing to be afraid of here". Lien immediately became another "storm": "There is no shortage of sticky rice, but if this sticky rice is slow, there will be no way to hop when the water is excess".
Taking a bus, after a short time of going around the several "fishing tables" streets of Nhat district, the bus turned into Truong Dinh street and hit the eye of a group of people standing in front of a restaurant on the street, with a signboard with the chu " Hu Tieu My Thap Cam" and the address: 62 Truong Dinh - Ben Thanh Ward - Q1.
Seeing the crowd, he sighed: "Then it's done, let's do it." The business here is to find a place to park a car and throw yourself into a crowd on the sidewalk, wait until there is an empty table to eat. This restaurant is not small, with more than a dozen tables inside, but the large number of customers makes it... invite him to queue up to buy happiness!
For the face of a grown-up friend, I enjoyed watching Saigon people wake up early to jostle each other to eat a bowl of bread for breakfast. As expected, it turned out that there were also noodles and noodles lining up here, like a street vendor in Bat Dan - Hanoi. This is probably a delicious, famous noodle shop, so people should run it themselves.
"This restaurant has been around for 60 years. Not the rumored corn or KOLs. Coming to Saigon without eating this restaurant is considered unheard of. Eating bread without it at this restaurant is considered unnecessary. The banh tet here is the first, nowhere can I follow it, he showed off his local culinary skills.
And admitting that there is nothing as miserable as standing on the stomach waiting for your turn to eat, between the aroma of the water soaring through your nose and the small, delicious whistling of the food when eating a delicious bowl of bread soaring in your ears. Then, after more than 5 minutes of waiting, a group of customers in the restaurant came out, immediately filled with new customers, including us.
When I asked my friend to advise me, I decided to order the bread with water to see how the broth was so delicious and attractive, and the bread was dry and eaten later. The wait was long, but the goods were made very quickly, just a few minutes after "ordering" the staff immediately issued 2 bowls, one Hu tieu - bread crumbs, one Hu tieu - bread crumbs.
While waiting for the bread to come out, the friend quickly took out 2 small bowls, then picked up a blue bottle and poured it into a bowl, then poured a red bottle into that bowl. He mysteriously asked: "Do you know what this is, one is chili sauce, the other is red vinegar with a bowl of rice. Eating bread with red vinegar is the secret to victory".
Then, come to the office... enjoy. As usual, I watch my bowl of noodles before. In a medium-sized bowl, on the foundation layer, a slice of light yellow fresh noodles, large, round noodles and a handful of large noodles were stewed with boiling water and bean sprouts and mixed well with a mixture of delicious chili, pepper and thick sauce.
Above are a few large pieces of pork chopsticks, looking at the inside, you can still see the white pieces that people often peel off because of the stench. However, if I clean it, there will be no more odor, but "the food is very rich", as he whispered.
A bowl of Huoi - Mai is filled with hot broth, fragrant with the scent of stewed bone and sprinkled with chives and onions. In his friend's bowl of hu tieu - crispy spring rolls, in addition to pork chops, there is also minced lean meat and pork tendons, so they look rich. However, I want to try a bowl of Hu tieu - "organic" noodles to see if it is worthy of the title "60 years of life, when it's late, it's still a bad deal" or not?
With the eyes used to eating Hanoi pho, I found the amount of Hu tieu - pain in the bowl to be quite small. Looking up at the menu hanging on the wall, seeing 3 types of breadcrumbs, 4 types of breadcrumbs, and 1 whole loaf of breadcrumbs, I thought that if anyone wanted to eat well, they would order a bowl of more bread, for every 1 more loaf of bread it would be 10,000 VND.
But indeed, the bowl of hu tieu - the bread is really delicious. The feeling of biting a large piece of food with a crispy and crumbly version is really good. The crispy and characteristic flavor of the chopped chopsticks combined with the chewyness of the noodles and noodles, along with the sweetness and fatness of the broth and the aroma of chives makes us feel "fully happy".
In fact, pig's feet are an ingredient that makes many people afraid because if not processed carefully, there will be a characteristic fishy smell. However, that smell was handled very well by the restaurant, creating a crispy, rich and rich piece. In addition, the noodles and fresh noodles here are quite special.
When asked about the beefsteak, who is also a brother in the family, I learned that the restaurant uses two types of broth, one chewy, the other soft, both of which are fresh and processed in Sa Dec style. For example, when chewing hu tieu, I have a familiar taste for a bowl of hu tieu eaten in this "capital of hu tieu" of the West. The noodles are made by the restaurant.
A bowl of Hu tieu - bread quickly flew in a note of music because it was so delicious that the amount was less than my food. Lien ordered a bowl of dried ham to continue to steep until it was cooked, this time with the aroma of stir-fried lean meat and the bitten tendons that sound crispy but not tough.
Mixing a bowl of hu tieu - pain with the spicy red orange chili sauce and red vinegar, the bread has a new flavor, very stimulating to taste. After processing the bowl of Huoi - Mai, immediately wrap the bowl of sweet broth with the aroma of onions, hop each joint big to enhance the spicy taste that is endemic in the mouth and feel the sweet sweat.
Now my stomach is full, but my eyes are still eager to read the words "huoi - mai butt" on the menu. But still, the delicious piece is just delicious, let's make an appointment to meet again, and then turn around and eat sticky - lean - bone bread!
