Bánh Cuốn Phượng — Restaurant in Hà Nội

I had the pleasure of experiencing an authentic Vietnamese breakfast while traveling to Vietnam HANOI, and it was absolutely delightful. The setup was charmingly local, with short chairs set up right beside the road, giving it a truly authentic street food vibe.

The food itself was outstanding – nice and delicious, bursting with flavors that exemplify traditional Vietnamese cuisine. Taste alike Hong Kong dim sum “chuong fan”.

If you're looking to immerse yourself in the local culture and enjoy a fantastic meal, I highly recommend trying out this breakfast spot. You won't be...
