The story
Cô Hương Béo
Cô Hương Béo began in a Hanoi kitchen that believes good bún riêu needs crispy tóp mỡ and a broth gently soured with dấm bỗng. Béo — rich and chubby — is the affectionate name the regulars gave: rich, crisp, unforgettable after one bowl. Now the quán runs two branches on the same Nguyen Thi Minh Khai street, open daily 06:30–21:30.

THE HANOI KITCHEN
Cooked the northern way
Broth gently soured with dấm bỗng, tomatoes added ripe — northern flavor in the heart of Saigon.

THE CRACKLINGS
Crispness is the craft
Pork fat crisped golden every day — scattered over the bowl, a crackle is the sign.

TWO BRANCHES
Same street, same flavor
Two branches on the same street — every one with crispy cracklings and gently soured broth.
Gentle sourness, crispy pork fat — one bowl and you remember.Bún Riêu Cô Hương Béo, 19B Nguyen Thi Minh Khai
