Eh?! I thought nem was the weird raw meat thing.
Only nem I've had is nem nuong. It's this sweet red cooked meat.
I didn't like it much, but am gradually getting used to the taste.

I actually happen to like that "gross raw looking thing."

I guess it's an aqcuired taste. *shrugs*

So egg rolls are also called nem in Vietnam? Didn't know that.

Eggrolls are called different things in Vietnam depending on the region and the ingredients used.

In the north, it's called nem ran, I believe (and they wrap the egg rolls in the clear-like spring roll wrappers).
In the south, it's called cha gio (and they wrap the egg rolls in this floury-square looking type wrap).

Nem can also be this raw meaty type thing (or it could be fried).

Anyone, please correct me if I'm wrong. This is just what I learned from experience.

Cheers!!!

Thats the northern dish. Well my bf's family calls it cha nem. At first I thought it was like the southern dish but totally different. Its not really eggrolls since rice paper is used.
