The bowl of noodles is ladled out piping hot, you have to slurp and change your hands to avoid getting hot.

Once, I took a friend from Ho Chi Minh City to eat Bun Bo Hue in Hue. After just tasting a spoonful of the broth, he grimaced at the taste of… shrimp. But Bun Bo Hue would not be complete without Hue shrimp. Because it is the characteristic shrimp flavor of this land that makes the difference in Bun Bo Hue.

Not only used to cook beef noodle soup, many Hue people still have the habit of adding a little bit of shrimp paste to soup or braised dishes to make them more flavorful. Or like eating mussel noodle soup without adding a little shrimp paste, it will lose some of its deliciousness. The shrimp paste flavor blends with the lemongrass and satay flavors, spicy and aromatic, rich but not harsh.
