Banh Beo - Hoi An

We were intrigued by this street vendor and couldn't wait to try the dish that she was serving. Crouched down on a tiny chair, this lady was surrounded by tins full of home-made sauces, herbs and pickles. She took a ceramic bowl filled with what looked like a rice jelly, white and slightly wobbly, and covered it with a spoonful of goodies from each of her tins.



It tasted delicious! Very different from anything we had tasted before. A great combination of flavours and textures, the glutinous rice complemented perfectly with crispy pork rind and the spicy chili sauce tying it all together. We left with our lips slightly tingling and big smiles on our faces.
