Where it comes from

The 22 July 2022 river-food article sets grilled fish beside the named Gia Lai plates, and says the fish comes from rivers, streams, and fields rather than a pond.

How to enjoy it

Clamp the fish on sharpened bamboo and grill it over charcoal. The same article also wraps it in banana leaf or buries it in ash.

No marinade before the fire. Dip it in chili salt, lá é salt, or yellow ant salt.

Where to try it

Rivers and streams in Gia Lai.

Cá lăng, anh vũ, and a fish called sọc dưa are other Sê San species cooked locally.
