"Tucked behind busy stalls in the heart of one of the city’s oldest surviving wet markets stands a traditional, narrow Vietnamese house that holds three floors of creative, innovative food and drink concepts from award-winning chef Peter Cuong Franklin. Anan (Eat Eat), the oldest of the three concepts, rose to international fame with $100 renditions of pho and banh mi, the latter including truffle mayonnaise, foie gras, and caviar. Even if you can’t afford those, come for crispy Dalat Pizza made with roasted duck or the truffle pho made with wagyu and truffle consomme. Be sure to stop by Nhau Nhau (Drink Drink), the second-floor cocktail bar, where you can try Song Cai, Vietnam’s first craft gin distillery founded in Hanoi in 2018, which sources native grains and botanicals from families of the Red Dao, Hmong, H’Re, and X’Tiêng peoples." - Linh Phan
