Having eel at Luon Nghe An


Slightly out of Hanoi old quarters, along the route to the airport, lies a restaurant serving eel-inspired dishes.   Luon Nghe An is located at 246 Nghi Tam Street.











The restaurant is on your right when you head from Hanoi old quarters.  If you are taking a cab, you need to get off the vehicle quickly as you are on the highway.  I would recommend coming in the afternoon as it was a hussle getting taxi late in the evening.















This restaurant serves eel cooked in a various ways. 


Grilled and wrapped in herbs
Stir-fry, crispy like
Salt-based

Cooked in bamboo


Stewed
 I liked all dishes.  If pressed for the least favourite, it would be the stewed eel.

You could also order some side dishes like the salads.

This is definitely a restaurant worth recommending.  It is good to go in a big group so that you could order more dishes.
