Mekong Delta cuisine is defined by the river's abundance. Fresh fish is prepared countless ways - grilled elephant ear fish (Ca Tai Tuong) is the signature dish, served whole and wrapped in rice paper with herbs. Lau Mam, a pungent fermented fish hotpot, is beloved by locals. The delta is Vietnam's rice bowl, and rice-based dishes shine here. Try Banh Xeo (crispy pancakes) stuffed with shrimp and bean sprouts, or Hu Tieu Nam Vang - a delicate clear noodle soup with pork and seafood. Fresh spring rolls with Mekong shrimp are exceptional. Street snacks include Banh Cong (deep-fried mung bean cakes), Nem Nuong Cuon (grilled pork rolls), and countless varieties of tropical fruit smoothies. Don't miss sampling fresh coconut water straight from the shell at roadside stands.
