AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the duck hotpot, praising its deeply savory broth and tender meat. The overall vibe is one of comforting, rustic satisfaction.
“We ordered the duck hot pot with fermented tofu. The broth is very delicate and full-bodied. The duck is very good, you just have to take off the skin. The instant noodles we added were surprisingly good, they stayed al dente, better than the rice noodles. The tofu skin soaked up all the broth flavors and was particularly pleasant. This is a very famous place, all the VIPs of Vietnamese Big Brother come here. We spent 337,000 dong and it was really the bomb. The best broth ever drunk in Vietnam and possibly one of the best ever.”
