Lantern's Restaurant — Restaurant in Ninh Bình Province

If you don’t have dietary requirements I’m sure you’d have a great experience here but unfortunately I’m coeliac - I have a Vietnamese translation card and the waitress seemed confident and understanding when she read it. She discussed my options with the chef and told me I could have noodles. They came, I had a few bites but they looked like wheat noodles and when we asked, turns out they were.

Best meal we have had since getting to Vietnam 10 days ago.
