We walked into a random eatery on the much-too-touristy street of Bui Vien (don't know why our concierge pointed us here! 🙄) to grab our first bite upon arrival. This huge "Banh Xeo" was one of the items we tried.
It comprised of a folded-over crepe that's slightly stretchy in texture, with a crisped finish along the edges. Puffing it up were loads, and I mean loads, of beansprouts plus a few prawns. We ate it with the fresh herbs and fish sauce served alongside.
Pretty tasty overall but I just don't care for the area this place was in. Anyway, you can find "Banh Xeo" easily everywhere else in Ho Chi Minh.
