I just had to write a review about Nem Nướng Thanh Vân in Can Tho! I stumbled on this little gem while wandering around the city, and it was an absolute delight. It's definitely not a fancy place – more of a local joint with plastic tables and chairs. But that's part of the charm, you know? You get the feeling you're eating where the real Can Tho folks eat.
The star of the show, of course, is the nem nuong (grilled pork sausage). It was incredible! The meat was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and had this amazing smoky flavor from being grilled over charcoal. They serve it with a whole platter of fresh herbs, rice vermicelli noodles, pickled vegetables, and this incredible dipping sauce. I think it had a hint of peanut butter in it, which sounds weird, but trust me, it worked!
One thing to note is that the portions are pretty generous. I ordered one serving and it was plenty for lunch. Maybe even a little too much! But hey, no complaints there. And the price was fantastic – super affordable, especially for the quality of the food.
Overall, if you're looking for a no-frills but delicious taste of Can Tho, Nem Nướng Thanh Vân is the spot. Just be prepared for a casual atmosphere and bring your appetite!
