i was craving some hột vịt lộn so i yelped this spot and im so happy i did! i don't usually buy them myself cause i've only eaten them at family gatherings or festivals. the one time i got them from a super market, they had feathers and my mom said they were too old. here they'll ask you if you want the duck to be small, average or grown. not grown, no thank you! i picked small and was so satisfied with the ones i got. i asked them how long i should boil them for, they laughed at me and said 25 mins. so there you go, for ppl who don't know. now you don't have to ask haha read more

If you're looking for Balut, this is the place to go! I liked that they had it separated by younger vs. older eggs, which made it easier to choose. A few things to keep in mind: * Try to avoid the ones in the fridge since you don't know how long they've been there. * A heavier egg is usually a younger one. If you buy 10, they're $2.50 each, which is a pretty good deal. The lady who helped me spoke English too, which was nice. read more

I was craving some Nuóc Mía (aka freshly pressed sugarcane juice), & my partner-in-crime remembered visiting "Hot Vit Lon Long An" during his early days doing patrol many years ago. Off to Westminster we went! If you're looking for one of those trendy Nuóc Mía shops with all the bells-&-whistles, stop reading this right now because you're in the wrong place. Instead, "Hot Vit Lon Long An" is a tiny, no-frills, no-nonsense shop that sells fresh pressed sugarcane juice. They do sell other items, but we were strictly there for the juice. The Nuóc Mía is fresh, & the employees are kind. The only downside: they no longer had fresh kumquat juice as an add-on...they only had a tangerine add-on which made the drink much too sweet for us. I'll probably keep looking for a place that has kumquat (or even lime) as an add-on, but if I return to "Hot Vit Lon Long An," I'll probably order the Nuóc Mía plain...unless they bring the kumquats back. If you're in the area & craving a sweet refreshing drink of natural fresh pressed sugarcane juice, check out "Hot Vit Lon Long An." read more

Hot Vit Lon Long An - Fresh pressed Nuóc Mía (aka sugarcane juice). - Hot Vit Lin Long An. Westminster, CA. 2024 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

Craving sugar cane juice and came here. A large size is $7 (no ice $10) or regular size $6 (no ice $8). I got both large, one with no ice and one with ice. I had my 40 ounce thermoflask handy and poured it in the bottle to have for the rest of the day. The juice was fresh, not over sweet and has that balance of sweet and sour from the calamansi. They also sell duck eggs and water by the gallon. This parking lot is insane. It's overly crowded and people walk in the middle of street combined with crazy drivers. I would recommend to park a bit far. read more

When the balut cravings hit, this is where you go. Pick up some fresh hot vit Lon (balut), fresh quail eggs and rau ram then go home and feast! I prefer the smaller duckies they're the perfect bite size! read more

I got hot vit lon (balut) and trung ngọng (goose eggs) here. As a fan of this popular Southeast Asian street food, I appreciate that they offer different sizes of duck embryos, depending on the number of days they've been incubated. Personally, I prefer the smallest embryos, and the seller is always happy to accommodate my request. read more

I came here for Balut eggs and I will never go anywhere else. The place is CASH ONLY but it's worth it! Plus they give you a free bag of Rau Ram (vietnamese coriander) with your eggs. The spot may look super dingey and hole in the wall, but that's how you know it's legit. Pro-tip, I am told that thursdays are the best day to pick up eggs as they are the freshest that day. read more

Legit place to get your Balut! I recommend getting the younger days-old eggs. You can get two dozens for about $60. They also sell fresh sugar cane drinks too! read more

I got the sugar cane pressed juice with kumquat at this place. The large size cost $7, and the kumquat juice added a nice sweet and sour-balance to the drink. It was really refreshing! The service is always quick and great - I was in and out in less than a minute. read more

Where else can you get some hot vịt lộn? Long An. This strip mall reminds me of Vietnam. It's noisy, dirty, and smelly. There's vendors selling fruits and food on the sidewalk. If you like sugarcane juice, it's freshly squeezed here. read more

Still my favorite place to get sugarcane (nuoc mia). Don't expect anything fancy as this place is super traditional, just pure sugarcane and kumquat if you like a little citrus. I believe their sugarcanes are home grown. Every time I'm in this area, I have to come here and order a cup because it's so nostalgic for my childhood and their sugarcane is just one of the best. I would dare to even say it's better than Cococane too and the price is still lower than all the overhyped places because their overhead cost might be lower as they only accept cash. As of February 2024, it is $6 for small, large is $7, an additional $1 if you ask for no ice. read more

This place has my dad's seal of approval for hot vit lon or balut in tagalog. He has many fond memories of eating this in his mother country, Philippines and kept talking about a place he heard about from a friend's daughter in Westminster which we mistakened for Balut Pateros. While that place is also good, they did not have as much variety of balut maturity and we were always at the mercy of whatever they had which tended to be less days than my dad would like since he likes an older egg because "it's more bang for your buck" as he proclaims. A lot of the reviews here mention more "mature" eggs, and that's somewhat right. Pro tip: mention how many days old you would like your balut to be. Anything on the 18 to 20 mark is going to be a little bit "jungle asian" with maybe a tiny foot or a tiny eyeball or both. If you want something on the hey this seems like a soupy egg variety, your best bet is 10 to 15 days. I got 3 ea of 18 days and 20 days and they were fabulous! The soup is extremely tasty, moreso than Balut Pateros and the yolk wasn't too overly done. We boiled them for about 18 minutes and they were perfect. To eat, if you're hardcore you'll eat it with your hand like a boiled egg. If you're wimpy like me, you can set it on a shot glass or egg holder and eat it with a spoon since it will be hot. We usually season with a bit of salt and pepper or some vinegar with chilli. They also sell some salted duck eggs, chicken eggs and chicken balut here as well. If you're looking to try out a dish which regularly makes it on Fear Factor or Eat Your Guts or Spill Your Guts, or are already a fan of this asian delicacy, look no further than Hot Vit Lon Long An! read more

A friend recommended this place so we stopped by to get some balut eggs before heading back to San Jose. We asked for 17 days old balut but was told they have 19 days only so we bought 60 eggs to give to relatives. Got home and boil some and as you can see from the picture this is not 19 days balut. It's more than 24+ days. It has feathers, bone too hard to eat. This business should be ashamed for deceiving people from out of town. I would not recommend this place unless you live there since you can complain and return it. They knew we were not from the area and tried to deceive us. read more

I called and complained about my order to this business, but they simply said they never sell out dated eggs. I would not recommend this place unless you live there since you complain and return it.

Came here on a hot summer day for fresh sugar cane juice! It was so good and refreshing. I would say it is going to my your average mom and pop shop and it isn't going to be worth traveling super far for. This place accepts credit card but I'm not sure what the minimum is. I would definitely come back here if I'm in the area! read more

cute small business. auntie was very cute and kind. great service! quality of the balut was very good and the price was fair!

I've been coming here since I was in elementary school. I have fond memories of road trips from San Francisco to Los Angeles and stopping here to get a dozen or two of balut to enjoy at our relative's house and to take home. I'm so glad they're still open and have weathered the pandemic. This place hasn't changed much from back in the days, except that there used to be more varieties of eggs on display that you can buy - from duck eggs to goose eggs and even ostrich eggs. I've only purchased chicken and duck eggs (balut to be exact). The prices are quite reasonable, specially knowing that you're getting fresh eggs. My favorite thing about getting my balut here is that you can choose the level of development/size of the fetus! They sell the whole spectrum and trust me, large is quite large! The service here is typical of a Vietnamese market and unless you speak Vietnamese, it's pretty straight forward order and pay. Don't forget to pick up a bunch of Rau Ram (Vietnamese Coriander) to accompany your balut. I've noticed that their Rau Ram is more fresh, with larger leaves than what the markets sell. The man behind the counter didn't speak much English and I had forgotten what the herb was called in Vietnamese, but luckily I saw a bag behind the counter and pointed to it. So if you don't know what it's called, just google it on your phone and show them a picture. Next time you're in the Westminster area, make sure to stop by and get yourself some fresh balut or eggs of all sorts. read more

Good little stop shop for takeaway items. My family goes here for hot vit lon (aka balut). They have duck eggs and chicken balut -- both are good.

They have a big array of items available but we come here specifically for the eggs. Try it out! read more
