Bánh Ướt Ban Mê Giang Vương - Tôn Thất Tùng — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was not a positive one. Both my friend and I fell ill the entire week after eating here, most likely from the grilled pork. Although the restaurant appeared to be clean, the pork had an odd taste. I didn't think much of it at the time, but in retrospect it was an indication that something was off. However, the concept of stacking plates and choosing side dishes was interesting and unique, and the menu was in English, which is convenient for foreigners. The Bánh Ướt, in particular, was delicious - very soft and freshly made non-stop. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the experience. The prices were reasonable for the experience. Although both my friend and I initially enjoyed the restaurant and planned on returning, the food poisoning made us change our minds. I would recommend being cautious and attentive when eating here, and if anything seems off, feedback immediately to the staff to avoid unwanted experiences. Despite the sickness, I still think this restaurant is worth...

In a world of delicious Vietnamese cuisine, it does not get much better than bánh ướt ban mê.

Only paying for what you eat, these DIY freshly steamed rice paper rolls are served at the table until you say stop. It's almost like a Vietnamese sushi train where the plates are counted at 2,500 dong a serve.

Meats included the marinated and grilled thịt nướng, the soft and chewy nem nướng and the chả com which was paprika pork ham that tasted like pork chicken nuggets!

Add mass amounts of shredded green mango, cucumber and basil before trying your hand at rolling these babies like the pros!!

With four provided dipping sauces, my favourite had to be the thick and tasty sốt thịt but the Vietnamese fermented anchovy sauce came a close second.

Blend everything together to your liking makes for a unique yet familiar taste. It honestly doesn't get much more fresh or more fun then this!

And like all Vietnamese street food, you leave feeling full and satisfied but not bloated. Absolutely loved this concept and had...

Banh Uot Ban Me Giang Vuong on Ton That Tung Street, District 1, is a must-visit for food enthusiasts in Ho Chi Minh City. What truly sets it apart is the rice paper steamed fresh on the spot – it's incredibly thin, smooth, and warm. The dish is served with fragrant grilled pork, sour fermented pork sausage (nem chua), pork sausage (cha lua), green rice sausage (cha com), and fresh herbs. Crucially, the rich, perfectly mixed fermented fish sauce (mam nem) is the soul of the dish, creating an unforgettable blend of creamy, nutty, aromatic, and spicy flavors. Although the restaurant is often crowded, the staff provides quick service. Definitely give it a try if you get a chance to...
