When visiting Vietnam, American YouTuber Sonny Side posted a video of him enjoying Hanoi-style bun cha at a famous restaurant on Truong Dinh Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City. Sonny Side affirmed that bun cha is one of the most easy-to-eat Vietnamese dishes for foreign tourists.

Accordingly, Sonny Side ordered a full serving of bun cha including vermicelli, grilled pork, and raw vegetables.

A foreign male tourist showed that he really loved bun cha and affirmed: "This is a dish that my parents definitely love."

In addition to bun cha, Sonny Side did not forget to order beer and a plate of crab cakes to try. The male tourist was surprised because the crab cakes here were packed with filling, firm and quite large.
