Bale Well

Frommer's Review

Bale Well is the epitome of local dining, but they're quite used to foreign visitors and make you feel right at home. This is your chance to experience squat stools and dining at street-side, but with a good standard of cleanliness ensured. The meal is simple: a set menu of nem nuong, the kind of spring rolls that you make yourself, rolling chicken, beef, or pork with fresh greens and condiments into sheets of rice paper. A set for one costs just 35,000 VND ($2.35/£1.30). You might also want to try the good pork satay, savory banh xeo (pancakes), or good fried spring rolls. The restaurant is in a little alley just off of Tran Hung Dao Street. The sign is more or less hidden, as if to say "If you know where you're going, you're here."
