"Bánh chưng presents and eats like a gift: A Northern Vietnamese speciality, this square-shaped sticky rice cake is wrapped in banana leaves and stuffed with glutinous rice, mung bean, and pork belly. Bánh tét, its Southern Vietnamese cousin, comes in log form. Grab both at Ba Le Bakery in South Philly and try slicing, frying, and serving with nước chấm." - Diana Lu
