Bún Chả, or Vietnamese Meatball Noodles by Bún Chả Hà Thành, Hanoi, Vietnam If you asked me to tell you my favorite Vietnamese dish, it wouldn't be easy for me to give you an answer. After all, nearly every meal I've ever had in Vietnam (and I've had a lot of them) has been delicious. However, if I were forced to pick just one, I'd have to go with bun cha , a dish made from marinated grilled pork meatballs served in a sweet-and-sour fish sauce broth soup with thin rice noodles and tons of fresh herbs and veggies. An iconic dish from northern Vietnam, bun cha is especially popular in Hanoi , so when I was in the city recently, I went hunting for a good bowl of bun cha near my hotel.
