Vietnamese Egg Rolls at Frosty’s Caffè
At Frosty’s Caffè in Metairie, Louisiana, guests are treated to a wide array of Vietnamese flavors that balance freshness and richness, spice and subtlety. Among the standout appetizers, the Egg Rolls (Chả Giò) hold a special place — delightfully crispy, deeply savory, and impossible to eat just one.
What Are Vietnamese Egg Rolls (Chả Giò)?
Often confused with Chinese-style egg rolls, Vietnamese Chả Giò are smaller, crispier, and packed with complex flavors. Made with rice paper or thin wheat wrappers and deep-fried to golden perfection, these rolls offer a satisfying crunch with every bite.
What’s Inside? A Perfect Flavor Blend
At Frosty’s Caffè, the egg rolls are made fresh daily, using a flavorful filling that combines:
-
Ground Pork or Chicken (vegetarian option available)
-
Shredded Carrots
-
Wood Ear Mushrooms
-
Glass Noodles (bean thread)
-
Garlic, Onions, and Vietnamese Seasoning
-
Wrapped in crispy pastry and fried to golden brown
This rich, savory filling wrapped in a light, flaky shell is what sets Vietnamese egg rolls apart — and Frosty’s delivers it with authenticity and finesse.
How It’s Served
Egg rolls at Frosty’s are served traditionally, with:
-
Fresh Lettuce Leaves & Herbs (Mint, Basil) – to wrap the egg roll for extra texture and brightness
-
Nước Chấm Dipping Sauce – a sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy fish sauce-based dip that perfectly complements the richness of the roll
This interactive style of eating — wrapping the hot egg roll in cool greens — is a classic Vietnamese approach that adds a layer of freshness and complexity.
