How to enjoy it

Eat it with rice and rượu cần, at the stilt-house meal, or pack it to carry.

Where to try it

Bản Mòng, xã Hua La, on the edge of the city, and the highland goods at the town market. No stall is a pick. The plate shown is the dish as served at Tả Phìn Hồ. The basket is the same meat at a 2023 culinary festival in Cửa Việt, Quảng Trị.
