Great writing, cuisine I'm interested in, gorgeous food porn, good writing (oh, I said that didn't I?), great stories, and great ideas for tearing it up in my kitchen.<BR/><BR/>Me?

Same as the stuff in Saigon, but the batter is slightly chewy in the center, crispy on the outside.Wandering Chopstickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703018765718062460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-68510294988021005462007-06-15T08:10:00.000-07:002007-06-15T08:10:00.000-07:00I quickly jumped back o the beginning, to find out...I quickly jumped back o the beginning, to find out why you started blogging and came upon this post. Bánh xèo and bánh khoái are two different things. What you are referring to (smaller, crispy) sounds like the latter, and is of central origin, I'm from Huế, so I know. =) In the south, the 'stuffing' for bx include shelled mung beans, whereas in the centre, you would never see anything with thatlkho.inthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378195766697476385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-86522787122434812872007-01-03T22:09:00.000-08:002007-01-03T22:09:00.000-08:00Hi Budding Cook,
