re: Exploring the food culture in Vietnam beyond pho

Oh, they’ll be plenty chances for breakfast.


For dinner we went out to a restaurant called “Bep Me In”. This is also on the Bib Gormand list. I don’t want to give the impression that I’m just hitting Michelin places but this place is a 30 second walk from the hotel so we decided to hit it up because of convenience. And convenience is a big factor since I’ll be on the move I’m 2 days.

From the main street, there’s an alley that must be passed in order to access the restaurant. You can see locals hanging out, scooters passing by, vendors selling knock offs sunglasses or getting you to come in for a quick foot massage.


Front of the restaurant. Looks like it’s decorated with the theme of the city of Hoi An with the mustard walls.



Feels like a tourist trap with the western customers.

Ordered the pork vermicelli and clay pot braised pork belly with hard boiled eggs.





Pork vermicelli was mid tier but pork belly was real good. 340k($13.5) so a bit steep.
