San Jose and surrounding area, locate the restaurant called Vung Tau

Vung Tau's voluminous space is filled with tables for their hordes of loyal Vietnamese devotees. Despite their rather chaste décor and basic service, the gamut of food offerings keeps these patrons riveted. While the hefty menu can stupefy, rest assured that the home-style food is as authentic as it is tasty. Imagine a plethora of both unique and classic delights from steaming noodle bowls to seafood and meat dishes. Watch as the faithful order the likes of bo bia (soft rolls filled with Chinese sausage and egg); or tam bi tom cha (broken rice cloaked with shredded pork and succulent prawns). Banh khot are enticingly savory confections, crisp at the edges, depressed at the center to hold a filling of sweet shrimp and minced scallions.
