Have you tried Quan An Ngon's Eel Combination (Hanoi)

With Chef Nguyễn Phương Hải, from Quán Ăn Ngon chain in Hà Nội.
Lươn mẹt Nghệ An (Nghệ An assorted eel on bamboo plate).[U1]

Nghệ An is famous far and wide for its eel dish that has gained prestige and the interest of people in and outside the country.

After selecting ingredients of the highest quality, Chef Hải creates a wonderful culinary symphony consisting of fresh eel, piper lolot and girdle cake, among several other ingredients, which could make your mouth water even before you taste it.

The most special basket eel is chả lươn cuốn lá lốt (grilled eel wrapped in piper lolot leaves). Before enjoying the dish, you should try several vegetable pickles and salad to stimulate your appetite. When you pick up an aromatic and delicious piece of eel wrapped in pig’s omental fat and grilled on traditional charcoal, you will enjoy a soft and a bit singed eel piece, which has been carefully dipped in a special flavour of galingale and fermented rice.
