Address & hours

Opens daily from around 16:00 until sold out (per the quán's info — pending verification).

Tips
- Come in the afternoon, come early — The gánh opens from around 16:00 and sells out in 1–2 hours — arrive early to be sure of a bowl; don't wait till the riêu pot is scraped clean.
- Order the full bowl — The full bowl with crab paste, stir-fried snails, blood cake, pork cake, tofu — one bowl for the whole afternoon-gánh flavor.
- Mắm tôm is the best friend — A cup of whisked mắm tôm on the side is the true canh bún way — squeeze in lime to wake up the broth.
