The bo luc lac is lean, bc it's filet mignon. Tender but no fat. It's just cubed up, not in a single piece like at a steak house.
The biet you friend ordered was likely "dac biet" means house special combo. It's the one with everything. The fatty cuts were brisket and/or flank. I like those cuts and I don't take off the fat either.

Asian cultures use the WHOLE animal, so not just dark, but necks, bones, heads,
. Just be specific about what you want. Rarely do they say no. Sometimes they say yes, but ignore you. That's just how it is.
You don't go to a cheap hole in the wall Asian place for the service you know?
