About
A crab banh canh stall of more than 40 years inside Bình Tây market, run by Ms. Lan, who learned the trade from her mother.
Why go
A bowl of bánh canh (thick tapioca noodle soup) with crab meat, fish cake, pork skin and blood, in a broth simmered from bones, fish cake and dried shrimp. You eat right inside the market, and some regulars have been coming for 10 to 20 years.
Good to know
Hard to find because it is deep inside the market (go in through gate 6 or 7 and ask). There are few seats and it gets crowded at lunch. A bowl with a whole crab starts at 120.000đ.
