Jumping Shrimp Pancake Restaurant in Da Nang is rated by Michelin as both cheap and delicious

Da Nang - Miss Ba's jumping shrimp pancakes impressed Michelin judges with their fresh ingredients and impressive flavors, imbued with Central Vietnamese cuisine.

The Michelin Guide has just officially announced the list of restaurants that have won the Bib Gourmand award in 2024 in Da Nang. Among them, Miss Ba's shrimp pancake restaurant is one of the most popular dining places because of its flavor and affordable price.

Located on Trung Nu Vuong Street, Hai Chau District, this banh xeo restaurant has been open for more than 10 years.

According to Michelin's description, the banh xeo here impresses with its texture as well as the accompanying dipping sauce: "The spongy, thin, crispy crust has the standard flavor of Binh Dinh, topped with fresh shrimp, dipped in a bowl of spicy and sour fish sauce, making the flavor explode."

The special ingredient that makes the "brand" of the restaurant's banh xeo is fresh freshwater shrimp. The shrimp chosen to make the filling must always be alive, jumping when put into the mold. When eating, diners will feel the shrimp meat is fresh, firm, slightly sweet, not mushy like frozen shrimp. In addition, the filling is full of bean sprouts, pork and green onions.

The banh xeo dish at the restaurant has been changed somewhat to suit the taste of Da Nang people, but still retains the special features of the culinary origin of Binh Dinh martial arts land. The flavor and quality can satisfy many fastidious diners.

In addition to jumping shrimp pancakes, diners coming here can also try other types of pancakes such as beef pancakes, squid pancakes, pork belly pancakes... The price of a portion of pancakes is about 20,000 - 35,000 VND/depending on the topping.

If you don't want to eat banh xeo, diners still have many other options such as pork rolls, grilled pork rolls, vermicelli with fish sauce... all of which are specialties you should try when coming to the Central region.
