De tai chanh Dê tái chanh
Dê tái chanh is rare mountain goat dressed with lime, eaten wrapped in sung leaf and dipped in soy sauce. The meat is firm, because the goats climb the limestone. On a Tam Coc day it is the 11:45 lunch with cơm cháy and dê nướng, after Tam Coc, Bích Động, and Thái Vi. A 13 November 2020 provincial goat note describes thin slices with a thick lean part and the skin, passed through boiling water, then mixed with nước cốt chanh, gừng, tỏi, ớt, tiêu, and shredded lá chanh, and does not mention Tam Coc. The 20 October 2023 culture office still places tái dê in the city or the old capital.
