What is Chả Cá Lã Vọng | Hanoi La Vong Turmeric Fish?

Chả Cá Lã Vọng, or Hanoi La Vong Turmeric Fish, is a beloved dish that captures the essence of Vietnamese cuisine. Originating from Hanoi, this dish is renowned for its unique combination of flavors and aromas, making it a must-try for any food enthusiast.
At the heart of this dish is tender sea bream, marinated in a fragrant blend of turmeric and galangal. This marinade not only enhances the fish’s natural flavor but also gives it a beautiful golden hue. The preparation involves grilling or pan-frying the fish to perfection, ensuring a crispy exterior while remaining succulent inside.

Served with a vibrant medley of fresh dill and spring onions, Chả Cá Lã Vọng is accompanied by rice vermicelli, which adds a delightful texture to each bite. To elevate the experience, we drizzle our homemade dressing over the dish, featuring a harmonious blend of fish sauce, lime, and chilies, bringing a zesty kick that balances the richness of the fish.
This dish is more than just a meal; it’s a culinary journey that reflects the rich culinary heritage of Hanoi. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Vietnamese food or trying it for the first time, Chả Cá Lã Vọng promises a memorable dining experience.
