"In 2018, Phạm The Can, the founder behind the startup Vina Chuối, appeared on Shark Tank Vietnam, winning investment to expand his business from one shop to eight stalls throughout the city, all selling fried bananas. The dish is common among street food vendors, but Vina Chuối fries the fruit right on the spot, and the batter includes secret seasonings. The bananas are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and less greasy than at competing places too. The chain also sells other items, such as grilled bananas and banana ice cream." - Linh Phan
