Bún Thịt Nướng
Bun thit nuong is my second favorite Vietnamese dish (beneath Pho), and I had the pleasure to eat lots of it while I was at home for Christmas. It's a delicious dish made of cold vermicelli rice noodles, a mixture of fresh vegetables and herbs (thai basil, cilantro, mint, cucumber, pickled carrots/radish), grilled pork, crushed peanutes, and nuoc cham (a light and yummy sauce made from fish sauce, lime juice, julienne carrots, sugar, garlic, and a few other things). Actually, the version I had at home was a slight variation, but delicious none-the-less. Unfortunately, I have yet to have a tasty comparison to my mom's bun thit nuong in NYC.
