Three addresses to enjoy impressive delicacies in Quy Nhon

Translated by Bing
Quy Nhon is not only famous for its pristine beaches and historical landscapes, but the culinary taste here is also "memorable" for many tourists who have visited this city.

Cake with porridge


Located at 145 Dien Hong, this family eatery is one of the city's most popular dining venues. For the past 20 years, the restaurant has always attracted tourists from all over the world to enjoy the porridge cake — a combination that seems "out of place" but is surprisingly harmonious.


Both banh nguyen and porridge are very familiar dishes, but few people think about combining them together. This is a bold idea of a culinary expert. Nowadays, banh ngoc porridge has become so popular that it has become a typical dish of Quy Nhon.



Each layer of rice cake is "woven" with thin, spongy and tough noodles, when eaten, it is often spread with onion fat and sprinkled with fried garlic. Quy Nhon cake is not eaten with roast pork, but instead is a plate of intestines including intestines, heart, liver, tongue, etc. 


Like other porridge shops, the shop only sells in the morning from 6 am to 10 am. Although it is open for a relatively short time, the restaurant can still serve a large number of customers and sells out an average of 40kg of rice cakes per day, which is not ashamed to be one of the city's "must-visit" places to eat.



Shrimp pancakes


Starting from a small pancake shop named after his son 18 years ago, Gia Vy pancakes now have two establishments on Dien Hong Street and Nguyen Tu Street. The special thing of this brand lies not only in the reputation built over the years, but above all the idea of transforming the Central pancake to create a unique dish for local cuisine.


The crispy and flavorful pancake has always been one of the most popular Vietnamese dishes. Each region will have its own version of pancakes with different ingredients, processing, or seasonings. However, it can be said that only in Quy Nhon can we see so many differences in pancakes, whether it is shell pancakes, a type less known only in Binh Dinh, or jumping shrimp pancakes, are also the main dishes in Gia Vy pancakes. Uncle Minh's pancake recipe is so popular that many other pancake shops have followed suit and put shrimp pancakes on the city's specialties.



Wanting to differentiate itself from other pancake shops, as well as raise the price in a reasonable way, the restaurant decided to refresh the familiar pancake recipe by diversifying the filling — customers can choose between beef or squid filling instead of just shrimp as usual. Mr. Minh's pancakes are also tastier and have more fillings. Such simple adjustments have made the restaurant's menu very attractive, quickly winning the hearts of locals and visitors from all over the world. 



Quy Nhon fish noodles


After a long day exploring the city, there's nothing better than enjoying a bowl of hot fish noodles. Just trying a spoonful of broth is enough to feel the rich and spicy flavor that is very distinctive. This spicy taste combines very well with other ingredients in the bowl of vermicelli, from broth, fish cakes, banana corn, to dill and cilantro.



Grasping the "spirit" of Quy Nhon fish noodle soup, Noodle Ca Thuy has created a unique recipe for making stir-fried chili sauce. The secret of the restaurant is to roast pepper with sugar to make it thick, spicy and have a characteristic smoky taste. Perhaps it is thanks to this unique taste that Noodle Ca Thuy has become one of the most famous fish noodles in the city, making many tourists laugh at each other every time they have the opportunity to visit. A popular choice here is the mixed fish bun cha, with a variety of ingredients including snails, pork rolls, jellyfish, crab paste, fennel, mango, peanuts, and more.
