**Welcome to homecooked stories by Trang** In Vietnam, Bánh Xèo isn’t something I would order as a carefully plated dish in a restaurant. It’s what happens when friends gather around a street vendor late at night. Someone orders a stack of crispy pancakes for the table. Everyone wraps pieces in lettuce and herbs, dips them into fish sauce, and keeps ordering more until the whole group is full. This summer, I want to recreate a little bit of that feeling in Berlin. Join me on my terrace in Pankow for an all-you-can-eat Bánh Xèo feast. I’ll be making fresh Bánh Xèo throughout the afternoon, served with herbs, lettuce, and dipping sauce. And because it’s summer, we’ll finish with a homemade Vietnamese banana coconut ice cream. Whether you come alone or bring a friend, expect a relaxed Sunday afternoon of good food and conversation with new people. What’s included: • Unlimited homemade Bánh Xèo • Fresh herbs, lettuce, and dipping sauce • Homemade Vietnamese banana coconut ice cream • Tea, coffee & water included Feel free to bring your own (non-)alcoholic drinks. No vegan or vegetarian option will be available for this dinner. **Good to Know** **📍 Location:** Pankow, Berlin (M2 tram stop Prenzlauer Promenade/Am Steinberg — exact address shared after RSVP) **💶 Contribution:** €33 per person **👥 Seats:** Limited to 8 guests Payment link will be shared after RSVP confirmation.
