Mr. Bui Van Lam, owner of the Muong Bridge Confucius restaurant in the Temple of Floating, said, from the first time eating the Mong Bridge calves a few years ago, his wife and wife had intended to bring this dish into Saigon. Unwilling to burn more and more when many times entering the restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City, he is still not satisfied with the calf in other regions. so, by all means, he and his wife invited Uncle Dou, one of the best masters of calf area, “lower paint” only taught. not long after, the esoteric tricks of the teacher were absorbed by his wife and wife and then now, he introduced the speciality of the bridge to diners in Saigon.

Delicious meat rolls with rice cakes and raw vegetables dotted fish will be a dish forever not forgotten for the majority of people who have enjoyed.

In addition, a few pieces of crispy baked rice cakes at meals are a habit of many generations of Quang people.
