When coming to Sa Pa, you must try Pho Con Sui.
This is what most tourists who have traveled to Sa Pa have said when they set foot in this foggy town in recent years.
Pho Con Sui is a must-try dish when traveling to Sa Pa.
Pho con sui sounds like wonton but is actually a dry dish in sauce (also known as pho khan). Those who enjoy this special dish for the first time will surely be surprised.
Because the spring rolls have the familiarity of Hanoi pho when they are both made from soft rice noodles but do not have as much water as pho.
The whole bowl of noodles is poured with a thick sauce like Hue or Saigon noodle soup, just enough to wet the pure white, thick noodles placed at the bottom of the bowl.
On top of the pho, the chef sprinkles some noodles made from seaweed or crispy fried sweet potatoes with many spices, and the beef is cooked to a thick consistency.
Next is some shredded pork, a quartered boiled egg, a little fine pepper powder, and crushed peanuts placed on top.
In particular, many tourists share that Mr. Ha's Pho Con Sui at 436 Dien Bien Phu Street has a richer, more attractive flavor.
Ms. Dao My Linh (a tourist from Hanoi to Sa Pa) shared that when coming to Sa Pa, you must try the taste of Pho Con Sui, especially Pho Con Sui Ong Ha at 436 Dien Bien Phu Street because of the rich, ecstatic taste of the thick sauce poured over the noodles. This is also the most important factor that determines the taste of the Sa Pa spring rolls.
According to the chef here, the con sui sauce must be made from pork bones simmered for about five hours, along with some aromatic spices with the scent of cinnamon, cardamom, and the Northwestern mountains and forests.
A bowl of pho is delicious when the sauce is just sweet enough, not too rich and not too bland, making the bowl of pho both fragrant, warm and rich in flavor.
When eating, depending on each person's preference, you can add herbs, a few slices of chili, chili sauce... and just stir well to eat. In addition, this dish is also served with thinly sliced pickled cabbage mixed with sweet and sour to increase the attractiveness of the dish.
“Originating from a famous Chinese brand in Lao Cai city, Mr. Ha's Sa Pa branch at 436 Dien Bien Phu street is just as famous as the original, with the price of 35,000 VND/bowl, unchanged even during Tet and holidays,” a resident of Sa Pa revealed.
Here, in addition to wonton noodles, there are also wontons and dumplings that are sweet with meat and vegetables, refreshing and bring a pleasant, warm feeling on foggy winter days.
