With the history of developing in more ten years, pillow cake at this store is known as one of the most delicious dishes by both locals and foreigners. There is no doubt to say that the crust, which must be purchased on Luong Van Can famous street, seems so really yellow outside, soft but brittle and tough. The press cake is scented mince mixed sausages, wood ears, mushrooms and sorghum. The pepper smell is so faint that makes pillow cake have a special flavor and taste better than any other place. Moreover, the sauce will determine the appetite of the pillow cake and raise the food store reputation. The sauce is really fresh including the sour smell of vinegar bar, the sweet taste of sugar, moderately salty fish sauce, the aroma of pepper, the spicy chili sauce and the brittle of melon heels made ​​of green papaya. The fragrant vegetables will raise the unique flavor of pillow cake.


Although the traditional dish is pillow cake, the food store also has a plenty of dish selections as well as spring rolls, fried fermented pork rolls, donuts, crab, dumplings which will satisfy more the customer needs.


The store is always in a busy time from morning till evening, the service is specialized into each work such as specializing in frying, cutting cakes, bringing dishes to customers and payment. However, the atmosphere seems quite noisy and there are seats for both inside and outside of the restaurant. The restaurant is always full of crowd, especially at weekends. All staffs are women who serve up you for the best.

As my experience when tasting pillow cake, just use the spoon pick each piece of pillow cake sliced into pieces then embed it into the sauce. The whole unique flavor will be more attractive if you try to extra much fragrant vegetable. Moreover, “Tra da”, one of the Vietnamese hand-made drink made from tea leaf, will not let you feel tasteless. Although pillow cake can be called the main dish of this restaurant, I think you should try more spring rolls, fried fermented pork rolls, donuts, crab, dumplings to know how delicious Vietnames street food is.
