Their book, The Vietnamese Market Cookbook, was first published in the UK in fall 2013 and was lauded in The Guardian, Time Out London, Zest, Jamie Magazine, The Sunday Telegraph, Top Sante Magazine, and Metro London, among others.

About the Author: Van Tran and Ahn Vu are the owners of the popular Market stalls Banhmi11 and two Market cafes, No.
From chapters like "Sweetness and Happiness" to "Spiciness and Adventure" and "Saltiness and Healing," this lusciously filling book will bring a little bit of Vietnam into your home.
Old and new favorites collide: Asparagus and Crabmeat Soup, Papaya Salad with Crispy Anchovies, Claypot Chicken with Ginger, Sea Bass Carpaccio, Kumquat Jasmine Iced Tea, and Cr me Caramel.
The recipes are simpler than you might think but explode with the purest flavors of vegetables, seafood, lean meats, spices, chiles, and treasured Vietnamese condiments like fish sauce.
As their business expanded, The Vietnamese Market Cookbook followed.
That\'s the message that authors Van Tran and Anh Vu wanted to bring to a hungry crowd when they opened their banh mi stall in London, an international city that surprisingly lacked the tastes of the authors\' childhoods in Hanoi.
This exhilarating culinary culture is rich but light, deeply flavorful but made with simple ingredients, and filling while also easy to prepare.
