The best part of my visit was seeing this Vietnamese woman cooked freshly made rice rolls right in front of me. They were cooked upon order so you're guaranteed it's I love that it's fresh and so affordable. I don't need to travel to Vietnam to have a taste of authentic Vietnamese food because it's right here at Greenfield Weekend Market.
