Bun moc and bamboo shoots shop on Cau Dong street

Opened for nearly 30 years, the vermicelli with bamboo shoots and pork meatballs restaurant of Ms. Nguyen Thi Tinh (born in 1954) located next to Cau Dong market gate (Hoan Kiem district), behind Dong Xuan market, is one of the familiar dining addresses of both locals and tourists.

Although it is called a restaurant, in reality, there are only two rows of plastic tables and chairs arranged on the sidewalk, covered with green tarps. When arriving at the restaurant, customers can see the "open-air" kitchen with a pot of hot broth, with many accompanying ingredients such as bamboo shoots, blood, meatballs, etc.

Diners who have eaten vermicelli with meatballs here commented that the meatballs are crispy, not too dry because they have both lean and fat, rich in flavor, and have the aroma of shiitake mushrooms and wood ear mushrooms.

Mrs. Tinh’s vermicelli noodle shop opens from 6am to 8pm every day, with the busiest times being 12pm and in the evening. Because the shop is located at a crossroads, near the market streets, there is a lot of traffic and parking is limited.
