Freshly deep-fried spring rolls with chilli sauce, piping hot so be careful not to burn your mouth, or ten frozen ones in a bag to take home: what an underrated treat such a modest spring roll stand always is. No flashy neon letters, no blaring adverts or loud vendors, everything is straightforward, so you can take the shortest route to such a deliciously crispy little spring roll (or two).
