Bo Ne, Vietnamese steak and eggs, Hải Châu District, Danang

A few days ago, exploring the Hải Châu district of Danang, we came across another single dish restaurant of note, they served Bo Ne.

Another of the fantastic traditional breakfast meals served in Vietnam, the dish is served on a scorching hot cast iron plate, usually in the shape of a cow. More expensive than Bun Bo or Pho, because of how much meat is served, the dish has a still-frying egg (when it is brought to the table), surrounded by thin slices of eye of round beef, a meatball (often with bits of liver), slices of white onion, cilantro, tomatoes and almost always a few complete green onions. This particular restaurant sold their Bo Ne for d45,000, or just over $2USD.


These Bo Ne cast iron serving plates get scorching hot over a bed of charcoal, and are well seasoned with thousands of meals having been eaten off of each one.
