Sensing flavors of Phan Thiet Seafood
Published: 25/03/2009 05:00
LookAtVietnam – Phan Thiet City is famous for its stunning beaches, white sand dunes and many tourist attractions. It has also gained a reputation for its cuisine, especially seacooking specialties, and for its trademark fish sauce. Muc mot nang is fresh squid that has been dried in the sun for one day. The squid, grilled with chilies and lemon and served in fish sauce, is available anywhere in the city but one of the best places to try this tasty specialty is Cay Bang Restaurant. Another local favorite is steamed bo hom fish, nicknamed “Thiet giap bien” (sea armour) because of its square shape and the patterns on its body. It is sweet, juicy and nutritious, especially when combined with the flavors of aromatic herbs, salty fish sauce and sweet Phu Long griddle cake. Revelers can enjoy bo hom at many of the eateries on Pham Van Dong Street along Ca Ty River. While steamed bo hom fish is typically a low-priced dish, steamed mu fish, mixed with fragrant vegetables and fish sauce prepared with lemon, sugar, garlic and chilies, is more expensive and provides high nutrition. Toan Duong Restaurant near Doi Duong beach and Sao Bien Restaurant are two of the more popular venues for this dish. In addition to distinctive seafood Phan Thiet is also known for recipes made with dong. The dong is a reptile shaped like a lizard found in and around the sand dunes. It is served grilled, steamed, fried or minced with citronella and chilly at seafood restaurants around Hon Rom resort. Ca Ty Restaurant is famous for its grilled dong. Cay Bang Restaurant is located on Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street, Ham Tien Ward, Phan Thiet City. Toan Duong Restaurant is located at 164 Le Loi Street, Hung Long Ward, Phan Thiet City (near Doi Duong Beach). Ca Ty Restaurant is at 40 Phan Boi Chau Street, Duc Nghia Ward, Phan Thiet City. Sao Bien Restaurant is at 22 Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street, Ham Tien Ward, Phan Thiet City. VietNamNet/SGT |
