I first tried this at the popular Highway 4 Restaurant in Hanoi with my brother. Sitting at the bar waiting to meet the owner of the restaurant, my brother told me about an old school friend, Dan, who had moved to Vietnam and he hadn’t seen for 18 years. At that moment, in one of the strangest coincidences, in walked the restaurant owner – Dan. It was amazing, two old mates reunited Facebook-free in downtown Hanoi. He treated us to an epic meal that included this wonderful claypot dish.
