ITINERARY:

We depart at 06:30PM, and start discovery local street foods at Tay Do night. Now, together start our dinner by the fresh spring rolls and this is a chance for you to practice how to wrap a nice spring roll by food course as follows:

  • GRILLED PORK SAUSAGES (NEM NƯỚNG): Can Tho is not the origin of this dish, but they also adopted it as a popular dish in their way. Grilled pork sausages give you all different tastes and textures of these unique spring rolls: the flavoured and hearty grilled pork sausages, the refreshing lettuce and aromatic herbs, the crunchy cucumbers, sour flavour of green banana and star fruit. Then you wrap all together by rice paper cake, add the dipping sauce and you have sensory overload in the most mouth-watering way.
  • VIETNAMESE CONG CAKE (BÁNH CÓNG): the shape of cake is round and look like pipe so they had named for it Bánh Cóng. It is included green bean, rice flour, sticky rice flour, mince pork and river shrimp on top and deep fry in Cong mould. We serve with vegetables (lettuce, basil, mint…) and dip into the mix fish sauce (chilly, lemon, water, sugar, fish sauce, garlic).

Many people say, they are kind of lazy to eat crab when they have to use both of hands to eat, and it has less meat to compare with shrimp or squid, so why they want to try this little crab –  bony

  • Fragrantly seasoned grilled rolls of beef wrapped up in wild betel leaf (lá lốt) are a favorite Vietnamese snack that’s great with cold beer or white wine. When the rolls are cooking, the perfume of Piper sarmentosum is mesmerizing and fills the room. Shiny on one side and matted on the other, the soft, pliable leaves don’t have much character until heat is applied to them, at which point they release their sweetly spicy, incense-like fragrance.
  • Grill Snails With Pepper Sauce( Ốc Bưu Nướng Tiêu)
