Bi cuon is usually served already rolled for you. Bi (julienned pork and pork skin with toasted rice powder) is also served with broken rice dishes (com tam), dry noodle bowls, or in sandwiches. The style of eating with dried rice paper and herb/salad plates is a typical way of eating, accompanying all kinds of proteins, and is not necessarily unique to a specific dish (although certain dishes will call for specific combinations). So while it could be “bi”, that chunky style is unfamiliar to me. The dark toast on the rice powder makes me think of a different dish.
My guess is that it was “be thui”. Ready?
Roast veal.
