The one bowl to order

Several small bowls of boat noodles

The line to expect: Busy at lunch but turns fast; the bowls are small, so order five each.

A row of boat noodle shops by the canal at Victory Monument; tiny bowls of pork or beef noodles in a broth thickened with blood, priced to order by the stack.
