@Mew, is it the chicken with unlaid eggs inside it? I don't know about this kind of chicken with embryos. Bun Rieu, Bun Oc?? But the clear noodles are not used for either noodle...Hmmm
@bb777, you over ate them, no wonder lol.
@byebye, I hope you could enjoy foods again soon. I am glad that you went to another oral surgeon for a second opinion.

Yes it is the inside of the chicken. My bestfriend mom is married to a laos guy and I know they make lots of dishes with chicken's insides so maybe she mixed it? Lol

As for the clear noodle soup with snails, I don't see it in a whole lot of restaurants. Very very few, could it be a region thing?

It could be a region thing or they just make it different, mixing different noodle soups together.

There is another type of noodle soup I have not posted photos up yet called Hu Tieu. This noodle soup have like 2 different types of noodles, the opaque & clear ones. But still it does not have snails, crab meat & tomatoes.

Hopefully I could answer this question of yours lol. I think you are talking about Banh Duc.

Info about Banh Duc

In northern Vietnam, bánh đúc is a cake made from either non-glutinous rice flour or corn flour. It is white in color and has a soft texture and mild flavour. It is typically garnished with savory ingredients such as ground pork, tôm chấy (dried ground shrimp), cut fried shallots, cut shallots, cilantro, sesame seeds, salt, peanuts, lime juice, and soy sauce or fish sauce.

In southern Vietnam, bánh đúc is a dessert made from non-glutinous rice flour. It takes the form of gelatinous blocks that are often colored green by the addition of Pandanus amaryllifolius leaf extract. It is cooked by boiling the ingredients and allowing them to cool, solidifying into a jelly-like sheet that is then cut into blocks then garnishing with sesame seeds & sweetened coconut milk.





The sweet type of Banh Duc - Banh Duc La Dua (Pandan Rice Cake)

The Vietnamese people have a saying:

Mấy đời bánh đúc có xương, mấy đời dì ghẻ lại thương con chồng.

The literal meaning is: "bones are never found in bánh đúc, just like a stepmother never loves her husband's own children." This couplet is used to describe something very unlikely to happen.

I love the bun with BBQ meat inside. We used order the bun with crispy duck dipped in oyster sauce. That's my quilt pleasure. But I generally just like the bun itself.

No, Banh It Tran Man is made with glutinous flour & have mung bean or mung bean with ground meat as fillings; Banh Beo is made with rice flour & have no fillings.

I think I need to make a disclaimer on first page lol. I have no intentions to make anyone hungry lol.

No, you made Banh Beo right.

Banh It Dau - the sweet type of Banh It, it has mung bean paste as fillings & it is wrapped with banana leaves.



Banh It Dua - another sweet type of Banh It, it has shredded coconuts as fillings & it also is wrapped with banana leaves. Sometimes the fillings have peanuts too.

Maybe Loatian people have a dessert like sweet Banh It too. Yup! They are yummy. I bought them at the market, they are not made by the market but by the people who brought them to the market & the market bought them from these people. They are tough to make. My mom does not make them, she makes Banh Bao (Vietnamese Steamed Buns), the sweet type though. We could eat them on days we could not eat meats hehehe.
