A basket of roll dish has about ten tastes. Especially, apart from shrimp, pork meat, raw vegetable, etc., the shop owner adds white sticky rice and red sticky rice (rice wine). The material seems not to relate to roll dishes. But it is eating style of elders in the past. The owner explains that the elders in the past were very poor, just had rice wine fried that make the roll dish have sweet taste. Now the shop upgrades recipe by using rice wine. The rice wine has sweetness of fermented rice without sugar and the scent of original ferment. The persuasive advertisement seems to make the roll dish more attractive. For those who like sweet will choose white sticky rice. But perhaps the red sticky rice is more suitable with roll dishes because of its characteristic aromatic sour taste.

Of course, the rice wine is just additional material. Shrimp, pork meat and fish sauce are still “the soul” of the dish. Shrimp must be freshwater crayfish, bright red, long fins but soft shell. The dipping sauce is not so special but acceptable. Various kinds of vegetables, besides common herbs, the shop also has very crunchy radishes. In general, the basket here easily makes dinners feel satisfied and strange. It is best choice for an appetizer of people group. Reasonable price just 180,000 VND/ a course of 8 people and smaller basket 150,000 VND/ a course of 4 people.
