Cool rice vermicelli, freshly grilled meats, crisp pickled vegetables, crushed peanuts, and a drizzle of nuoc cham — our Vietnamese Vermicelli Bowls (Bún) are light, fresh, and packed with flavour. A Calgary SE favourite at Saigon Chef Restaurant.
Vermicelli Bowls, or Bún, are one of Vietnam's most beloved everyday dishes — a light yet flavour-packed bowl that brings together cool rice vermicelli, grilled meats, and vibrant fresh toppings. At Saigon Chef Restaurant, we craft each bowl with care, using our own nuoc cham dipping sauce to tie everything together.
Choose from grilled lemongrass pork, grilled chicken, grilled beef, or our popular grilled shrimp and spring roll combinations. Each bowl is finished with pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber, fresh herbs, crushed peanuts, and crispy shallots — a complete, balanced meal.
