A Hidden Gem: Gân Bò Nhúng Lá Giang – Only 150k/portion, chewy and unique, plus free beer & soft drinks in Tân An, Bình Dương!
Usually, in Bún or Lẩu Bò, people use Gân Trong or Gân Vàng. But to make Gân Nhúng Lá Giang, they have to use “Gân Thịt”, which is quite rare because each cow only has a small amount of this kind of tendon. That’s why most butcher shops keep it for themselves and rarely sell it to the public.
🥰 From what I know, Bò 123 is actually a beef supplier as well, processing fresh beef daily. They keep the best Gân Thịt and serve it right at their place, so the beef here is always super fresh!
🍲🍲 A pot of Gân Nhúng Lá Giang costs around 150k-200k, enough for 3-4 people. The way to enjoy it is pretty special—you need to let the tendon simmer in the sour leaf broth for about 15-20 minutes. Once ready, the Gân Thịt becomes tender yet slightly crunchy, absorbing all the sweet and tangy flavors. It melts in your mouth! And if you dip it in chao (fermented tofu sauce)—oh wow, it’s addictively good!
🧋 Bonus: The coolest part is that beer and soft drinks are completely free! You get to scoop them up with your hands—grab as much as you can, and that’s your free share! (I’ll explain how this works below!)
😋 Besides Gân Nhúng Lá Giang, Bò 123 also serves a variety of other dishes like grilled beef, mixed beef platters, pork, chicken, frog, eel, and other countryside specialties, all priced between 100k-200k.
📍 The restaurant is located at the end of alley 933 on Nguyễn Chí Thanh Street, about 100m past Cây Me intersection. The alley is accessible for cars, and the spacious garden-style restaurant is perfect for gatherings, birthdays, and outdoor parties.
