Bún chả (Vietnamese): is a Vietnamese dish of grilled pork and noodle, which is thought to have originated from Hanoi, Vietnam. Bún chả is served with grilled fatty pork (chả) over a plate of white rice noodle (bún) and herbs with a side dish of dipping sauce. The dish was described in 1959 by Vietnamese food writer Vu Bang (1913–1984) who described Hanoi as a town "transfixed by bún chả." Hanoi's first bún chả restaurant was on Gia Ngư, Hoàn Kiếm District, in Hanoi's Old Quarter.

Bun cha gained its global fame when President Obama went to eat bun cha with Anthony Bourdain. Where did they go? It’s a restaurant called Bun Cha Huong Lien in Hanoi. They even have a set menu called “Obama Set”, serves a list of dishes they ate. This restaurant is always full, and rightfully so. Bun Cha Huong Lien was already popular for the exquisite bun cha taste and now more visitors come here after the press coverage. In my opinion, it’s harder to find bun cha that’s not good, but Bun Cha Huong Lien does it exceptionally well.

This is probably one of my favourite Vietnamese foods! Maybe because it comes from Hanoi I wasn't able to find it in the north. Have you actually been to the Obama restaurant?

It is my favourite too. I will go to there with my friends near future. Do you want to come with me?
