The Essential Vietnamese Restaurants in Chicago - Eater Chicago
"Up north in suburban Glenview, Buncha Hanoi dedicates itself to recipes from Vietnam’s capital. The namesake specialty, bún chả, was popularized several years ago by President Obama and Anthony Bourdain on Parts Unknown. It consists of multiple components: Grilled pork skewers and patties, rice vermicelli noodles, veggies, herbs, and a bowl of funky fish sauce to dip the ingredients in. The dish’s beautiful mélange of flavors and textures is worth a visit alone, but the menu also features items like phở and bánh mì. Online ordering is available here." - Jeffy Mai
