These tiny kebabs are the Vietnamese version of satés. You’ll find them at the hawkers’ stands clustered in and around Saigon’s markets. The Vietnamese use a modest cut of meat, but I like to take the dish uptown by using tenderloin tips (which cost considerably less than filet mignon). You could also use thinly sliced sirloin or New York strip steak.
