Grilled lemongrass pork chop with broken rice might be omnipresent throughout HCMC, but only one is omnipotent. Using superior quality pork on the bone, cut more thickly, marinaded expertly and charcoal grilled to perfection, it is easy to see why 167 Nguyen Van Cu is known as one of the best spots (if not the best) to get this delightful plate of porky goodness.
Just look at this picture - doesn't it just induce hunger?
Everything is done perfectly here. The smokey, lemongrassy exterior of the pork with charred crisp bits which are unbelievably moreish; the addictive sweet and spicy hit of the fish sauce, the moist yet al-dente rice, and, I did not mention the pork terrine. No doubt French influenced, this pork terrine is moist, juicy, and put simply, a must have.
