Quán Bà Sửu — Restaurant in Thừa Thiên Huế Province

Bà Sửu in Lộc An, Vietnam, offers an exceptional dining experience that captures the essence of Vietnamese countryside cuisine. The spread of dishes is as visually pleasing as it is delicious, with each plate featuring fresh, vibrant ingredients that showcase the restaurant’s commitment to quality. The crispy pork belly, sliced into thick pieces, is perfectly seasoned and boasts a delightful crunch, pairing well with the soft bánh hỏi rice noodles topped with fried shallots. Fresh greens and herbs add a refreshing contrast, balancing the richness of the meat.

The meal is accompanied by flavorful dipping sauces with a punch of chili and garlic, enhancing each bite with a burst of savory and spicy flavors. A side of pickled garlic and chili adds a tangy kick, complementing the rest of the dishes beautifully. The fresh vegetable salad, made with bean sprouts and julienned carrots, adds both texture and brightness to the meal.

The attention to detail, from the perfectly cooked pork to the fresh, high-quality herbs and vegetables, is impressive. Bà Sửu’s inviting atmosphere and delicious, thoughtfully prepared food make it a must-visit for anyone in the area. A well-deserved 5/5 star experience that celebrates the best of Vietnamese...

Having tried many different places that sell Banh Uot Heo Quay but honestly, nowhere could compete against well-known grand Suu’s, where has the most scrumptious Banh Uot Heo Quay in Hue. Not only do they serve Banh Uot Heo Quay but beef porridge is also available. Besides steam rice paper and roasted pork, accompaniments including pickled bean sprouts, fresh veggies and dipping fish sauce also go along side which are totally for free. The verdict of this whole dish certainly is roasted pork, which has sophisticatedly cooked to be extremly moist and tender that instantly could melt in your mouth once you start chewing. Though the steam rice paper garnished with some crispy fried shallot on top are thin but you will be given a huge portion compared to a normal one. The dipping fish sauce has 2 types: sweet and salty one. However, they both have the perfect balance between saltiness and sweetness with some garlic and chilli chopped in, making it slightly mild. Overall, grand Suu’s has the wonderful quality that out of my intial expectation and I highly recommend you guys to come and try out this place in your trip...

TL;DR: Get that crispy roasted pork!

This is one of the hole in the wall kinda places. It's pretty big but there's no fancy decorations to welcome you into the restaurant. There's not even AC. When we visited at 2pm for late lunch, they only have one dish--flat rice noodles with different kinds of veggies and SUPER CRISPY roasted pork! Omg the skin was crispy and not oily. The meat was tender. They offered two different kinds of fish sauces. The one in the bowl was less strong and the one in the small sauce plate was strong and salty. I love love the roasted pork!

Aside from the pork, we also got lemonade. It's one of the best lemonades we had so far because it's refreshing without being super sweet. We also got their peanut snacks. It's light and crispy. We saw the other people buying it by the bulk so we try it too. Turned out it's better than the store bought packaged one.

I would come back again if...
