Bánh Khọt Cây Tre - Vung Tau

That was my first experience with Banh Khot. I wasn't excited to think that it was just a pile. I was wrong! They served a large plated salad, Thai basil, green papaya shredders and other vegetables, along with rice paper packs. It was very delicious, especially with the diving sauce. The owner showed me how to make a Banh Khot wrap. I chose the option #2 from the menu 70,000 Dong. It was very filled.

Good place for breakfast and lunch before 12:00 a day, Sa and Sun until afternoon. Good taste, fresh materials, traditional way, nice services and very patient owners.

Went cause of the reviews and my hotel was across the street. Wasn't given a menu and so I just showed a picture of what I wanted. Not sure if I was given the right amount of the banh knot. Anyway the first couple were decent but then as I ate more the novelty of it being new to me wore off. They are too greasy and don't have much flavor. Even wrapping them in the greens didn't help much. Got charged 55k for the meal. Not sure if I got the tourist price or what.

A hidden jewel for the most popular dish of Vung Tau! I used to be at Cay Vu Sua, the OG, but I never came back since the day I was introduced to Cay Tre. It's just not so crowded because not many people know about it. And it is simply not so oily because it is not literally covered with oil like Cay Vu Sua.

I enjoyed the authentic taste and atmosphere of this beautiful restaurant.
