Mi Quang


Ask an you shall receive.

This is Mi Quang at a market in HCMC. Sorry this pic is not too good. But as you see, the noodles are flat, thick, yellow. It has a bunch of items... pork, quail egg, shrimp, crispy rice paper. Not too much broth like pho...maybe half a ladle's. Sauce is pork based sweet and thick.




This is Hoi An's version. They use white noodles, but I like this one better.



HCMC Mi Quang was $1.30, Hoi An's was a little bit cheaper.

Cau Lao. I was told that only this item was originated and a specialty of Hoi An because of the uniqued well water needed to make the noodle.

The noodle is similar to chewy udon noodle. With pork, local greens, and a sweet and thick pork broth.
