@liuzhou, I have never been to Vietnam and I’m never likely to get there but I’ve had bánh xèo in Toronto so for once I can relate to something you enjoyed!  

 

The first time I ate it was in Paris about 30 years ago. At that time London had few if any Vietnamese restaurants. The UK didn't have the historic connection. I certainly never came across any, but I know they are there now. 

 

I've eaten it in Hanoi many times, but they served it in a slightly different manner. No rice paper wraps. One just  used the lettuce leaves as the wrap. Still delicious.

 

I don't suppose I'll ever get to Canada!
