The glaze

The plate, as acchcm.vn describes it

No real photos of the stall exist — this is what the one source records.

Thick-cut ribs

Thick ribs, not thin chops — the rib bones grilled in a honey glaze.

Blistered skin, sweet meat

Blistered crisp skin, sweet tender meat — in the writer's own words.

Bì thính, cucumber

Paired with fragrant bì thính and crisp fresh cucumber.

To be clear

This is not the Vo Thi Sau Sườn Cây

This is Cơm Tấm Nè at 491/12 Nguyen Dinh Chieu, Ward 2, District 3 — an alley stall known for honey-grilled thick ribs and honey xíu mại. The Sườn Cây cơm tấm at 206 Vo Thi Sau is an entirely different shop. Two separate places — don't mix them up.
