My first bites of bánh cuốn were hardly intentional — they came from a banh mi shop tucked in Houston’s Third Ward.
I’d been working at a day care, and also a stadium’s parking company, and most of what I ate came from this tiny Vietnamese spot.
Several weeks after that he just handed me a bag of boxed bánh cuốn, with separate tins for fish sauce and bean sprouts, alongside an edict: enough.
Eating streetside bánh cuốn in the morning, in the hubbub of other diners, over a stool and folding table, is basically a miracle.
The thickness of your bánh cuốn might vary from restaurant to restaurant, and also your fillings, but you’ll still find yourself won over from iteration to iteration.
