episode 164: Tasting Banana Street Food Desserts In Saigon, Vietnam
Tasting Banana Street Food Desserts In Saigon, Vietnam
Two of my favorite desserts in Saigon, chuoi chien, (fried banana), and chuoi nep nuong, grilled banana with sticky rice coating, (batter), in warm coconut pudding. These treats make great snacks anytime of day and there are still many carts and stands that sell them in all of the districts. Vinachuoi.com has a stand in District 1 near the Nguyen Hue Walking Street.https://goo.gl/maps/4xmDVvkn1d819NyA9 and another one here:https://goo.gl/maps/CbuNwJuLCNGNTWLY9 The wonderful place that churns out grilled bananas with coconut pudding is located here:https://goo.gl/maps/8EUe6vBQq7CMgfQW9 Just remember they close at 7pm. You can also find places around the Ben Thanh Market that sell these treats but they're usually more expensive. You can find carts and stands scattered around Districts 3, 5 and 10. These locations listed are some of my favorite places for fried and grilled bananas. Thanks so much for watching the video and subscribing to the channel.
