Quan Banh Ba Do
Bánh Bèo Nậm Lọc Bà Đỏ
An established eatery specializing in Hue-style steamed rice cakes, featuring a spacious dining area perfect for trying a variety of steamed and leaf-wrapped cakes.
Located at 8 Nguyen Binh Khiem Street on the north bank of the Perfume River, this eatery specializes in traditional Hue rice cakes: small dishes of steamed rice cakes (banh beo), banana leaf-wrapped flat rice cakes (banh nam), and translucent tapioca dumplings with shrimp (banh loc). They also serve shrimp cake rolls and pancakes. The cakes are served hot and eaten with a specially blended fish sauce. A full platter costs about 30,000 to 50,000 VND. The restaurant is spacious and airy, making it suitable for families and groups. Parking is available, though it can get noisy during lunch and dinner peaks. Some reviewers note that the clientele is mostly tourists, prices are on the higher side, and the taste is not as good as it used to be. Operating hours vary by source, so confirm before heading out.
