grilled buffalo wrapped in in wild betel leaf


my local bia, no doubt has great food, at a recent trip for educational purposes i was introduced to trau nuong lalot, which is grilled buffalo meat wrapped in the lalot leaf. the meat was incredibly tender and juicy and the leaf adds a nice balance of texture and flavor.  unlike the beef variety that is dipped in anchovy sauce, this was in the typical salt, lime juice, and chile sauce.
