Bánh Xèo

Typical Ingredients

Rice flour batter, turmeric, pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, lettuce and herb wraps, nuoc cham dipping sauce.

Allergens

Shellfish (shrimp), fish sauce, pork.

Ingredients & Dietary Cautions

Shrimp is a standard filling component, not optional — a fully vegetarian version is uncommon on standard menus.

Tear off a piece, wrap it in a lettuce leaf with fresh herbs, then dip the wrap in nuoc cham before eating — it's not eaten plain by itself.

Typical ingredients are descriptive, not a dietary guarantee. Recipes, sauces, stocks, oils and shared equipment vary by vendor; confirm directly when allergies or dietary restrictions matter.
