Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown (2016)
Anthony Bourdain and President Obama share bún chả and a cold Hanoi beer on plastic stools. Their table is upstairs, under glass, with the bowls still on it.
What to order
The "Combo Obama": bún chả, a fried seafood roll and a Hanoi beer
Grilled pork in a sweet-sour broth with rice noodles and herbs, the Hanoi lunch, at the shop that made it world-famous. It's still a noisy local canteen, which is why it works.
