The Twin Cities’ Best Food to Celebrate Lunar New Year | Eater Twin Cities
"A decades-old Eat Street icon for Vietnamese Tết traditions: the writeup explains bánh tét as "glutinous rice cakes stuffed with mung bean and pork filling, shaped into a cylinder, wrapped in a banana leaf, and then boiled," and bánh chung as prepared similarly but "shaped into squares," noting that "both are often placed on ancestral altars before Tết revelers dig in." The restaurant typically begins taking phone orders about two weeks before the Lunar New Year begins." - Serena Maria Daniels
