"Bun oc (snail noodle soup) is a dish that brings the breath of Hanoi. One of the oldest places serving bun oc in Hanoi is in Hang Chai street. Sometimes when it is too busy, guests have to hold their bowls in their hands because there are not enough tables. Still, it is a fun experience if you want to eat like a local."
