THE STORY

Number 241, the grill, the sauce bowl

Little is published about the stall's age — only that it has stood on this Cach Mang Thang Tam corner for years, and people keep coming back.

NO. 241

The familiar doorplate

241 Cach Mang Thang Tam, Vo Thi Sau Ward — the address every District 3 broken-rice roundup has to name.

FISH SAUCE

The house recipe

The light sweet-sour fish sauce, mixed to the stall's own recipe — the one detail all four guides give a line to.

BUDGET STALL

Good, filling, cheap

Fragrant ribs, a clean stall, from 25k — people from Districts 10 and 12 come on weekends because they 'can't stop craving it' (tunaucom123).
