We Ate at Anthony Bourdain's Exact Bun Oc Spot in Hanoi + More Hidden Food Gems

Описание: We ate at Anthony Bourdain's exact Bun Oc spot in Hanoi's Old Quarter — and it was just the beginning of one of the best food days we've ever had in Vietnam. Hanoi has a reputation as one of Southeast Asia's greatest food cities, and after this day, we completely understand why. From the original egg coffee café tucked in a hidden alleyway to charcoal-grilled bun cha in a local alley and a unique dill-laced fish dish in the French Quarter, every bite told the story of this city.
