A street stall on Tran Hung Dao Street and a leading spot for Chau Doc turmeric fish noodles. It serves generous portions of fish, with optional fish head and grilled pork.
Chau Doc fish noodles use live fish from the paddies (cá lóc, snakehead) fried with turmeric, with a broth of pork bones, lemongrass and shrimp paste, served with sesbania flowers, shredded banana blossom and other greens. The stall is around No. 92 Tran Hung Dao Street, with a Google rating of 4.4, and is known for plenty of fish, the option of adding snakehead head, and a plate of grilled pork. The roadside setting is simple and hot, and it is busiest around 7:30 pm. Some find the broth salty. Others report that the stall has moved to a nearby spot, so ask locals if you cannot find it.
