Cha Ca is a famous dish popularised in Hanoi and is a favorite meal of mine when visiting. Although the name “cha ca” implies that it’s a fish paste, it’s actually small fillets of flaky white fish marinaded in turmeric, dill, shrimp paste and fish sauce.
Perhaps what is intriguing is the use of dill - which is uncommon in Southeast Asian cooking and that when it is used, it is more in the north, especially in the cha ca dish or in a fish soup.
The version served here is made with grilled seabass satays with fresh herbs over rice vermicelli.

Bánh cuốn is made by steaming a slightly fermented rice batter on a cloth which is stretched over a pot of boiling water and made into a thin and delicate crepe. It is usually filled with seasoned ground pork, minced wood ear mushroom, and minced shallots and bean sprouts, with the dipping sauce called nước chấm. Its name literally means" Cake Roll" is one of my favourite northern Vietnamese snacks, and it is a close cousin of the Cantonese dim sum standard, Cheong Fun. | #food #foodgasm #foodstagram #instayum #instafood #instaweekend #heritagewalk #vietnam #hanoi #alfmvietnam #travel
