Fragrant iron plate dish with fish and dill
Hanoi's famous char kha is a dish of fish seasoned with turmeric and grilled with dill and green onions. Yellow fish and bright green herbs line the table, and the warm aroma stimulates your appetite. If you separate the fish and herbs into separate plates of rice noodles and add peanuts and sauce, the soft meat and fragrant texture will overlap. For those who like herbs, this is a dish that gives you a sense of Hanoi, which is different from noodle dishes. Some restaurants add fermented shrimp seasoning, but if you are concerned about the aroma, please ask about additional accompaniments or alternative sauces. If you don't know how to eat it, just ask the staff and it can be a great conversation starter while you're traveling. The type of fish, serving size, and additional toppings vary by restaurant, so please take your time and order according to the number of people in your group.
