Chả Cá Thăng Long is one of my favorite dishes, but I hadn't thought to go grab a bite of it until my parents brought it up. It was also fortunate that Ada was around to try it as well.
Unfortunately, since it was just the two of us, I opted not to get the Bun Cha Ha Noi. While there was the potential to reduce the Cha Ca Thang Long from the larger double portion to the smaller single portion, I wanted to emphasize the fish and opted for less variability and a more focused experience.
On a different note, when the server brought out the sauces, there was a brown sauce which I historically avoided. When the server returned, I asked if it had peanuts and he said it didn't. Then, with confidence, I tried it and found it delicious. It is called mắm nêm (Vietnamese fermented anchovy dipping sauce).
Overall, I enjoyed the lunch and Ada expressed that she liked it too.
