This is a traditional dish of the Hue region but it is now served almost everywhere. If you have a Pho restaurant in your neighbourhood, you can find this dish too. It's a beef vermicelli soup but the predominent flavour is lemongrass and it is usually a lot more spicy than Pho. It is definitely a more meatier dish and the herbs that come with it are generally the same - basil, sprouts, and a side of cabbage.
When we were in Hue, my mother wanted to try it there but our tour guide said that the best Bun Bo Hue can now be found in Saigon! When we got back from the tour, my uncle Hung made some at his house and we had it for dinner.... delish!!
