Rice noodles with grilled pork in Southern style

Week ago I tried "bún chả Hà Nội", famous street food from North Việt Nam, I said that's very similar to Southern style rice noodles with grilled pork (bún thịt nướng)!

Similar but different! 

So what's similar and what's different?
Similar! Same concept: rice noodles, grilled pork, veggie and sweet fish sauce!

             Rice noodles with grilled pork in Southern style (bún thịt nướng)    


And different! 
In South we don't soak grilled pork in fish sauce! And we don't have "chả" ground pork cake!  
Fish sauce is not that light as in Hà Nội! I should say I prefer Southern taste! Richer! 
Veggie. We have additional bean sprout and cucumber as a must veggie for this dish. Hà Nội - no!  
Roasted peanut for topping! Hà Nội - no!    
Green onion stirred in the oil to spread on rice noodles! No for bún chả Hà Nội
Pickled carrot & white radish. Hà Nội version - green papaya! 

Bún thịt nướng super popular street food in Sài gòn. Easy to find around the city, esp. together with grilled pork you can always order deep fried spring rolls! 

This weekend as usual we prepare some good food at home, so I decided to have homemade version of bún thịt nướng! 
Here you go my big bowl of the rice noodles with grilled pork in Southern style!
