Taste

Tuổi Trẻ calls the broth lightly sweet, smelling of đồng crab, with soft crab roe, crisp rich crackling, and a mild tannin from the sung. You mix the fruit with chili vinegar, sugar, and seasoning powder.

How to enjoy it

Tuổi Trẻ says it fills students and workers in the early morning or after work, and that winter is when the bowl is at its best. One stall that day ran from 06:00 to 20:00.

The same article prints 10,000 đồng for a full bowl and a resident’s hơn 10,000 đồng, with add-ons of chả cá, fried fish, mọc, or chả lá lốt at 15,000–20,000 đồng. Those are November 2021 prices.

Where to try it
