The 78 Pham Ngoc Thach frontage
The standing 'QUÁN BÀ LÒNG' sign with the 78 Pham Ngoc Thach address, an illuminated food banner, glass doors — a real fixed shopfront, not a cart.
78 Pham Ngoc Thach · Xuan Hoa · District 3
QUÁN LÒNG BÀ LƯƠNG
Hanoi-style pork-offal porridge in Saigon: rare lòng se điếu, proper mắm tôm, and a shopfront named for Bà Lương.
Two ends of one bowl
A Northern frontage outside, the offal craft inside
Bà Lương brought her Hanoi cháo lòng quán to Saigon: outside, the 78 Pham Ngoc Thach shopfront with its standing sign; inside, the offal craft — from steaming bowls of mixed-offal porridge to the lòng se điếu you have to ask for.
The lòng se điếu craft
Lòng se điếu — the rare small-intestine delicacy reviewers mention most; ask for it, priced at market rate.
Four frames to open
The shopfront, the chao long spread, the mam tom bowls and the crispy intestine — how a meal at Bà Lương opens.
The shopfront
The standing sign and food banner at 78 Pham Ngoc Thach — the quán's identifying frame.
The chao long spread
Offal porridge bowl, sliced fried intestine, scallion fried tofu, dipping sauces — a properly Northern spread.
Crispy fried intestine
Crispy fried pork intestine on lettuce, chao long bowl behind — one of the quán's most-ordered plates.
Inside the quán
Shopfront, spread and dipping bowls — Bà Lương through the house's photos.
