About

A modest food stand specializing in chewy, fried Vietnamese donuts with mung bean and sesame fillings. Prices are very affordable around 2,000-3,000 VND per piece, and the treats are best enjoyed fresh and warm. While signage is mostly in Vietnamese, friendly staff and consistent quality attract repeat visits, especially for their sweet varieties that avoid animal ingredients like honey, egg, or milk.
