ATL Find: Lemongrass Tofu Strips at Saigon Tofu!
If you love tofu like I do, you’ve probably visited your share of Vietnamese tofu shops. This time at Saigon Tofu, I stumbled upon something new: Sweet & Spicy Lemongrass Tofu Strips! 😍🌶️🍬 The flavor is really nice—mildly spicy with a tangy-sweet kick. It makes a perfect snack, though if you’re not big on sweetness, you might find it leans a bit sweet. They also had Onion Tofu Slices nearby, which were tasty too. Both carry that signature Vietnamese touch—which, yes, usually means a hint of sweetness. 🧅✨ And here’s another find: freshly steamed rice rolls! 🫔 They offer vegan ones and others with meat filling. A half-pound makes a satisfying meal for one, packed with bean sprouts, fried onions, and scallions. Once home, I just reheated them, added a splash of soy sauce and some garlic chili paste… and honestly, it tasted so close to classic Cantonese rice rolls! The texture was silky, with that gentle rice aroma shining through. 🍚💫 Places like this are all about being affordable and diverse—a true gem for explorers. Sometimes, all it takes is a little tweak at home to bring those familiar Chinese flavors to life. 🥢🏠 📍 Saigon Tofu 5000 Buford Hwy NE, Chamblee, GA Perfect for a quick, flavorful bite or to grab ingredients for your own kitchen creations! #AtlantaEats #TofuLover #VietnameseFood #BudgetEats #FoodFinds #ATL
