avian flu notwithstanding, i suppose you could say chicken is to vietnam what pork is to china. not surprisingly, you'll find plenty of curb-side bbq stands similar to this one offering a kind of 'self-serve' menu. the bamboo-skewered chicken is given to you on a banana leaf, along with rice paper and other ingredients, which you then curl up to create your own version of a delectable viet staple, the spring roll.
