Lo River Fish Salad (Goi Ca Bong)
Must Try

Lo River Fish Salad (Goi Ca Bong)

The crowning jewel of Tuyen Quang's culinary arts. Fresh Lo River fish is thinly filleted and mixed not with rice powder, but with its own finely minced, roasted bone powder to retain its organic sweetness. Wrapped in wild figs and herbal leaves, it is dipped in a signature thick, savory sauce.
