If you are a fan of Vietnamese snacks, especially street food, this snack shop is definitely a destination not to be missed. This shop is located in the urban area of Soc Son town. Although it does not have a specific name, just hearing the name "sidewalk shop" everyone knows that this is the place that provides all the famous and familiar snacks of Soc Son.
Diverse snacks
This shop stands out with a rich menu, you can find all kinds of snacks from popular to street specialties such as fried chicken wings, fried fish balls, fried shrimp, french fries, fried sausages, fried sour spring rolls, fried chicken feet, clam porridge, hot blood, stir-fried snails, boiled snails, quail eggs, fried corn, duck eggs, tofu, banh xeo, banh goi... and many other dishes that you will not be able to remember if you just list them.
Food quality
Although it is a sidewalk restaurant, the quality of the food is always guaranteed. The most outstanding dishes that I often order are clam porridge, fried chicken feet and hot blood.
Clam porridge:**I am a person who hates porridge, if you often read the blog, you will see that in the past 7 years I have never reviewed porridge, because I never eat porridge. But this clam porridge is delicious, so I have to write a review for readers. A bowl of hot, smooth porridge with clams stir-fried with shallots, creating a fragrant aroma. The special thing is that when eating porridge, you will see a layer of crispy fried dough sticks on top, creating a perfect combination between the hotness of the porridge and the crispness of the fried dough sticks. Vietnamese coriander is also added to the bottom of the porridge bowl to reduce the fishy smell of the clams, making the dish more perfect.
**Hot blood sticks: An extremely typical and famous dish in Vietnamese cuisine. The blood is cooked in sweet and sour bamboo shoots and chili broth, served with raw vegetables and figs. The rich, spicy and sweet flavor blends with the rich taste of the blood, making it very attractive and unique. The bamboo shoots are spicy and sour, eaten with figs - a fruit that helps the digestive system to be healthy, preventing diarrhea, the blood is coagulated into a block, hot and soft, melting in the mouth when bitten.
- Fried chicken feet and fried chicken wings: Although the price of these dishes may be a bit higher than other sidewalk restaurants, because they are made from fresh ingredients, not frozen chicken, the flavor is extremely sweet and fresh, so I don't complain about the price. Although the appearance of the dish may not be eye-catching, it is very delicious when eaten, the chicken is crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, dipped in shrimp salt, chili and lemon leaves, nothing can compare.
Store space
The space of the restaurant is a traditional sidewalk restaurant, with simple plastic tables and chairs but very comfortable. The restaurant is quite spacious, especially in the evening, when students and groups of young people gather here to enjoy snacks. In particular, during the students' school hours, the restaurant is always full of customers, creating a very bustling and cheerful atmosphere. Even though there are many customers, the restaurant always ensures quick and attentive service, because there are only about 5 people cooking and serving.
Affordable price
What makes this restaurant attract a lot of customers is the extremely reasonable price, suitable for all customers, from students to working people. The dishes here cost only from 10,000 VND, helping everyone to enjoy delicious food without worrying about the price. The restaurant is always crowded, whether it is summer or crowded at school hours, this proves that the restaurant has built a reputation and love in the hearts of diners.
Because the menu is large and diverse, every time I come to this restaurant, I have to try different dishes. It will take at least ten times to try all the dishes ^^
