Beach crab is a famous specialty loved by many tourists when traveling to Nhat Le beach. This is a small seafood with a soft body, living in sandy coastal areas. It may look a bit strange, but it is extremely nutritious.
A unique specialty of the Central people
You can enjoy this dish in many ways: stewed with vegetables, cooked as porridge, or fried crispy. Especially, if you want to challenge your taste buds, you can try the crab blood mixed with alcohol, both delicious and good for health.
If you travel here around October, don't miss the fish hotpot, one of the top 100 specialties of Vietnam loved by tourists. The fish is firm, cleaned thoroughly, with the head and tail removed, and seasoned just right. When eating, you dip it into the hot pot, adding fresh green vegetables, making it both delicious and warming, ensuring you'll be "hooked."
Hot, fragrant, unforgettable
Banh xeo is available everywhere, but to find the authentic taste, you must go to Quang Hoa market in Ba Don. Stop by the market early in the morning, and you'll get to enjoy freshly made hot banh xeo.
The unique feature of banh xeo here is that it is made from brown rice, both fragrant and healthy, allowing you to eat freely without worrying about gaining weight. The accompanying items include fish, salad, fresh herbs, dipping sauce, and rice crackers. It may sound like simple street food, but it’s easy to understand why locals have loved it since childhood.
Crispy, delicious, authentic
While Hanoi has its famous pho, Quang Binh has chao canh - a national specialty that everyone must try at least once to understand the authentic taste of Central Vietnam. A proper bowl will include fish, shrimp, meat, along with soft, chewy banh canh and a fragrant, sweet broth. The variety of accompanying vegetables ensures that tourists won't get bored.
Chewy noodles, sweet broth
Small tip: Eating chao canh with crispy fried spring rolls is a true delight. Grab a piece of spring roll, sip some broth; it sounds unusual but pairs perfectly, ensuring that tourists will be left in awe..
