Vietnamese Food?

[dionnek]

A friend of mine wants to go to a new Vietnamese place. I recall reading at one point that Vietnamese food is "gluten free friendly" - does anyone have any suggestions on what to order? I've never had Vietnamese, gluten-free or not

I love suon nuong which is charcoal grilled pork chops that have been marinated in lemon grass, honey or sugar, garlic and fish sauce. Sooooo good. Highly recommend it. I get it every time I have Vietnamese. I like it so much I even make it on the grill at home. I think it should be safe. Make sure the fish sauce is gluten free. Com Chien which is a type of fried rice and Pho Xao which are fried rice noodles with shrimp, egg, peanuts and sprouts is also really good. I'd ask about the noodles though and what else has been fried in the oil.

Hope you enjoy it.

I love Vietnamese food. I eat (and learned how to cook) the various types of pho soups, rice dishes and summer rolls (veggies and meat wrapped in rice paper - they aren't fried).

Watch out for fish balls, fish sauce and soy sauce. I'm pretty sensitive so I stay away from just about any sauce.
