Bun Cha or Grilled Pork Meatballs with Vermicelli Noodles
Bun Cha is one of the signature dishes of Ha Noi. The dish combines three elements: a bowl of grilled pork meatballs served in a broth of fish sauce, a plate of rice noodles, and a combination of various fresh greens such as perilla leaves, lettuce, coriander, and morning glory.
Visitors can find Bun Cha in any area of Vietnam, however, the local Ha Noi version is held in high regard. This dish has gone viral since the visit of former US President Barack Obama in 2016 with the late famous chef Anthony Bourdain.
