History
Pho cuon was invented on Ngu Xa street near Truc Bach Lake in the 1990s when local cooks repurposed unused fresh pho sheets as wrappers. The sheets are rolled around stir-fried beef, lettuce and herbs, then dipped in nuoc cham. Pho Cuon Huong Mai is the canonical Ngu Xa counter; Pho Cuon Chinh Thang holds a Michelin Selected listing for the same dish.
