Restaurant Lạc Thiện

6 Đinh Tiên Hoàng, Phú Hoà, Thành phố Huế, Thừa Thiên Huế, Vietnam

My best food tip? Ask your taxi driver for the best place to eat. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. That’s how I came to Lac Thien, a street cafe, for Banh Khoai--a savory crepe pan-fried to a golden crisp, stuffed with shrimp, bean sprouts and little mounds of pork. (Oh, trust me, you can’t have just one.) To eat, break a piece with chopsticks, add fresh herbs or wrap in lettuce, and dip in “tuong,” a spicy garlic sauce. Lac Thien is a tiny corner cafe at 6 Dinh Hoang, just off the Hue Trang Tien Bridge--perfect for people-watching. P.S. Banh Khoai is a signature dish of the central region. In the States, you can find Banh Xeo (a larger variation) at most Vietnamese restaurants.
