We were walking down the streets at Old Quarter.
It has been drizzling the whole morning and we were cold and rather miserable.The mouth watering smell wafted through. We looked around and saw a petite old lady making some omelette. 
We ordered one immediately. She cracked some eggs and mixed with some chopped local veg and fried it immediately on her makeshift stove-basket. We waited patiently..and we were rewarded with a very scrumptious omelette. 
It was very fragrant, cooked to the right texture and dip in the lime+fish sauce, it's just great :) But one of our faves in Vietnam would be Bun Thit Nuong, directly translated as noodle+meat+grill.
It's dry rice noodles served with grilled pork patties, grilled pork and fried spring rolls.
The meat patties tasted wonderful, somewhat like a mix of mince char siew and bak kwa. We love it to bits!
The fried spring rolls, though yummy, was not as good as the patties..

Mix some rice noodles, meat patties, spring rolls and fresh veg together and makan! Dont drink the soup/ sauce though. It's salty if taken on it's own..It's just to complement the noodles. Wonderful stuff, please please try this when you are in Vietnam..
This was one of the stalls we had Bun Thit Nuong. Which serves one of the yummiest meat patties..

The rice sheets are cooked fresh, when we ordered
..and these smooth sheets are filled with mince meat and sliced wood/ear fungus. 
Served with a some fried shallots and dried shrimps.
Dip in their sweetish salty mildly spicy fish sauce for the perfect simple breakfast..
Nice.

Oh btw, it's near impossible to find a bagette stall in Hanoi while its ubiquitous in Saigon..
